Abstract excerpt
Background In cardiomyocytes, phosphodiesterases (PDEs) type 3 and 4 are the predominant enzymes that degrade cAMP generated by β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs), impacting notably the regulation of the L-type Ca2+ current (ICa,L). Cardiac hypertrophy (CH) is accompanied by a reduction in PDE3 and PDE4, however, whether this affects the dynamic regulation of cytosolic cAMP and ICa,L is not known. Methods and Results...
