Left ventricular transmural gradient in mitochondrial respiration is associated with increased sub-endocardium nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species productions
Objective: Left ventricle (LV) transmural gradient in mitochondrial respiration has been recently reported. However, to date, the physiological mechanisms involved in the lower endocardium mitochondrial respiration chain capacity still remain to be determined.Since nitric oxide (NO) synthase express...
