ABSTRACT Calcium is central in the regulation of cardiac contractility, growth and gene expression. Variations in the amplitude, frequency and compartmentalization of calcium signals are


decoded by calcium/calmodulin-dependent enzymes, ion channels and transcription factors. Understanding the circuitry for calcium signaling creates opportunities for pharmacological


modification of cardiac function. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your
