We recently developed a mouse model with a single functional allele of Serca2 (Serca2+/-) that shows impaired cardiac contractility and relaxation without overt heart disease. The goal of this study was to test the hypothesis that chronic reduction in sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (S...
