Abstract
The role of the Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) in heart failure associated with myocardial infarction (MI) is poorly understood. The elucidation of its precise function is hampered by the existence of two catalytic NKA isoforms (NKA-α1 and NKA-α2). Our aim was to analyze the effects of an increased NKA-α2 expression on functional deterioration and remodeling during long-term MI treatment in mice and its impact on Ca2+ handling and inotropy of the failing...
