ABSTRACT To test the hypothesis of temperature-dependent deterioration of electrical excitability (TDEE) (Vornanen, J Exp Biol 219:1941-1952, 2016), the role of sodium (I Na) and calcium (I Ca) currents in heat tolerance of cardiac excitability was examined in a eurythermic fish, the roach (Rutilus rutilus). Densities of cardiac I Ca and I Na and their acute heat tolerance were measured ...
