Relevance of NaV1.8 for diastolic sarcoplasmic Ca2+ leak. Values are given as mean ± SEM. One-way ANOVA with Tukey's test for multiple comparisons was used to calculate P values. a Representative confocal line scan images of human atrial cardiomyocytes loaded with the Ca2+ indicator Fluo-4 showing Ca2+ sparks during diastole. b Mean values of the frequency of Ca2+ sparks (CaSpF) and (c) the total calculated diastolic Ca2+ leak in atrial cardiomyocytes (n = 84 cardiomyocytes/13 patients) and after blocking NaV1.8 with A-803467 (n = 73/9) or PF-01247324 (n = 88/11). d Original line scan images of murine atrial cardiomyocytes from SCN10A−/− and (e) WT mice. f Mean values of CaSpF and (g) the total calculated diastolic Ca2+ leak in SCN10A−/− (n = 57 cells/7 mice) and WT (n = 57 cells/7 mice) mice and, respectively, effects of NaV1.8 inhibition by PF-01247324 (SCN10A−/−: n = 57 cells/7 mice and WT: n = 62/7) and TTX (SCN10A−/−: n = 64 cells/7 mice and WT: n = 61/7)
