Cardiac Remodeling in Fish: Strategies to Maintain Heart Function during Temperature Change

Rainbow trout remain active in waters that seasonally change between 4°C and 20°C. To explore how these fish are able to maintain cardiac function over this temperature range we characterized changes in cardiac morphology, contractile function, and the expression of contractile proteins in trout fol...
