Abstract
This study confirms the presence of higher ventricular ectopy in SHRs than in age-matched WKYs. LVH appeared to be an adaptive, antiarrhythmic process. Myocardial energetic changes with advancing age, as reflected by Kcnj11 expression changes, could underlie this age-dependency of ventricular arrhythmias.
