Many studies have confirmed that persistent sodium current (I(NaP)) is altered during a redox reaction, but little attention has been paid to transient sodium current (I(NaT)) and its correlation with I(NaP) during the redox reaction. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the redox states on the correlation between I(NaT) and I(NaP) in cardiomyocytes.
