Cocaine Induces Cytoskeletal Changes in Cardiac Myocytes: Implications for Cardiac Morphology
Cocaine is one of the most widely abused illicit drugs worldwide and has long been recognised as an agent of cardiac dysfunction in numerous cases of drug overdose. Cocaine has previously been shown to up-regulate cytoskeletal rearrangements and morphological changes in numerous tissues; however, pr...
