Platelet sodium-hydrogen exchanger activity and left ventricular mass

Abstract: Introduction:The sodium-hydrogen exchanger (NHE) is integral to the processes that facilitate cell growth and may contribute to the development of left ventricular hypertrophy. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between platelet sodium-hydrogen exchanger activity and left ventricular mass index (LVMI). Methods: Twenty male untreated Caucasians (mean age ؎ s.d.: 48 ؎ 13; body mass index: 29 ؎ 4 kg/m 2 ) with a wide range of blood pressures were studied (mean BP: 152 ؎ 22/93 ؎ 15 mm Hg; range:… Show more
