Chronic (>1 week) Gq stimulation can be mimicked in a single cell model of adult cardiomyocytes.
Endothelin-1 and phenylephrine increase cell arrhythmogenicity through genomic regulation.
Expression of cardiac PKCγ is regulated by endothelin-1 and phenylephrine stimulation.
Chronic endothelin-1 stimulation leads to a desensitization of its inotropic response in vivo.
