Vital role for mitochondrial calcium exchange in heart function

😱 48.0 😐 17.9 😉 8.0 😖 5.5 😟 5.5 😊 5.3 Scientists have long thought that calcium transport into mitochondria is a key signal linking cardiac workload, or how hard the heart pumps, with energy production. Now, in a major breakthrough, researchers show that the exit of calcium from mitochondria serves a critical role in heart function and may represent a powerful therapeutic approach to limit heart disease.
