Abstract excerpt
The P2X4 receptor is a newly identified receptor expressed in the heart cell. Its function was elucidated with cardiac transgenic (TG) expression of the receptor by using the myocardium-specific a-myosin heavy chain promoter. The presence of the transgene was determined by polymerase chain reaction by using primers specific to the receptor and the vector linker region, by Southern blotting of the genomic DNA, and...
