Abstract excerpt
Multiple isoforms of inhibitory Galpha-subunits (Galphai1,2,3, as well as Galphao) are present within the heart, and their role in modulating pacemaker function remains unresolved. Do inhibitory Galpha-subunits selectively modulate parasympathetic heart rate responses? Published findings using a variety of experimental approaches have implicated roles for Galphai2, Galphai3, and Galphao in parasympathetic signal...
