Role of oxidative stress in catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathic changes in cardiac sarcolemmal Ca2-transport with or without vitamin E pretreatment

Increased sympathetic activity, due to stressful events, leads to chronically increased release of catecholamines from the sympathetic nervous system, resulting in deleterious effects on cardiac cells. Oxidative stress, due to excessive catecholamine release, affects the calcium handling ability of...
