Calcineurin Aβ gene knockdown inhibits transient outward potassium current ion channel remodeling in hypertrophic ventricular myocyte

It has been shown that the activation of calcineurin is involved in regulating ion channel remodeling in hypertrophic cardiomyocytes. But the precise role of calcineurin in the regulation of transient outward potassium current (I to), an ion channel associated with fatal arrhythmia, r...
