Abstract excerpt
One of the prominent markers of end-stage heart failure at the molecular level is a decrease in function and/or expression of the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase protein [sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase, SERCA]. It has been often postulated that a decrease in SERCA pump activity can contribute in a major way to decreased cardiac function. To establish a functional relationship, we assessed how...
