Cav1.2 channels in the heart mediate excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling; tune cardiac excitability; and regulate gene expression. In ventricular myocytes, CaV1.2 channels are predominantly located in t-tubules where they are in proximity...
Resident cells of the myocardium: more than spectators in cardiac injury, repair and regeneration [0.03%]
