Research Abstract |
We studied Na^+/Mg^2+ transport rate after metabolic inhibition in rat ventricular myocyte. A decrease in ATP below the threshold of rigor cross-bridge formation, rather than elevation of [Na^+]i or intracellular acidosis, inhibits the Mg^2+ efflu~90%), suggesting the absolute necessity of ATP for the Na6+/Mg^2+ exchange.
