Forefront of Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger Studies: Role of Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger – Lessons From Knockout Mice

We used Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) knockout mice to evaluate the effects of NCX in cardiac function and the infarct size after ischemia/reperfusion injury. The contractile function in NCX KO mice hearts was significantly better than that in wild type (WT) mouse hearts after ischemia/reperfusion and th...
