Summary

In cardiac myocytes, CA(2+) concentrations alternate between high levels during contraction and low levels during relaxation. The increase in CA(2+) concentration during contraction is primarily due to release of CA(2+) from intracellular stores. However, some CA(2+) also enters the cell through the sarcolemma (plasma membrane). During relaxation, CA(2+) is sequestered within the intracellular stores. To prevent overloading of intracellular stores, the CA(2+) that entered across the sarcolemma must be extruded from the cell. The Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger is the primary mechanism by which the CA(2+) is extruded from the cell during relaxation. In the heart, the exchanger may play a key role in digitalis action. The exchanger is the dominant mechanism in returning the cardiac myocyte to its resting state following excitation.[supplied by OMIM, Apr 2004]
