Role of Calcium Channels in the Protective Effect of Hydrogen Sulfide in Rat Cardiomyoblasts

Background: Hydrogen sulfide contributes to the reduction of oxidative stress-related injury in cardiomyocytes but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Aims: Here we investigated the role of voltage-operated calcium channels (VOCCs) as mediators of the beneficial effect of H2S against oxidativ...
