Cardiac L-type Ca(2+)-currents show distinct alterations in chronic heart failure, including increased single-channel activity and blunted adrenergic stimulation, but minor changes of whole-cell currents. Expression of L-type Ca(2+)-channel beta(2)-subunits is enhanced in human failing hearts. In order to determine whether prolonged alteration of Ca(2+)-channel gating by beta(2)-subunits contributes to heart failure pathogenesis, we generated and characterized transgenic mice with cardiac overexpression of a beta(2a)-subunit or the pore Ca(v)1.2 or both, respectively.
