Figure 4From: Acetate transiently inhibits myocardial contraction by increasing mitochondrial calcium uptakeAcetate stimulates mitochondrial Ca2+uptake. Summary of rhod-2-AM fluorescence recorded during exposure to 10 mM sodium acetate in the presence (n = 8) or absence (n = 10) of Ru-360 (10 μM). Background-subtracted fluorescence was normalized to mean fluorescence during the period prior to addition of 10 mM acetate (n =10) or control (no acetate, n = 9). Acetate solution was added at the arrow.Back to article page
