Angiotensin II does not influence expression of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2 + ATPase in atrial myocytes

Introduction. The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ ATPase (SERCA) is essential for the regulation of the intracellular calcium level in cardiomyocytes. Previous studies have found that angiotensin II (Ang II) decreased SERCA2 gene expression in ventricular myocytes. Alteration of SERCA activity is impor...
