Influence of pH on Ca²⁺ current and its control of electrical and Ca²⁺ signaling in ventricular myocytes.
Modulation of L-type Ca(2+) current (I(Ca,L)) by H(+) ions in cardiac myocytes is controversial, with widely discrepant responses reported. The pH sensitivity of I(Ca,L) was investigated (whole cell voltage clamp) while measuring intracellular Ca(2+) (Ca(2+)(i)) or pH(i) (epifluorescence microscopy)...
