Altered expression of Na+ transporters at the mRNA level in rat normal and hypertrophic myocardium.

Abstract excerpt

Intracellular Na(+) ([Na(+)](i)) regulation plays a crucial role in the structural, mechanical, and electrical properties of myocardium. It is assumed that the [Na(+)](i) handling system may differ not only between normal and diseased hearts but also regionally within a heart. To gain new insight concerning disease- and region-dependent differences in the [Na(+)](i)-regulatory system, we investigated mRNA...
