Abstract excerpt
Myocardial infarction (MI) is associated with oxidative stress, which may cause cardiac autonomic impairment. We tested the hypothesis that acute MI disrupts cardiac cholinergic signaling by impairing nitric oxide (NO)-cGMP modulation of acetylcholine (ACh) release and whether the restoration of this pathway following cardiac neuronal NO synthase (nNOS) gene transfer had any bearing on the neural phenotype....
