The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is responsible for protein synthesis and calcium storage. ER stress, reflected by protein unfolding and calcium handling abnormalities, has been studied as a pathogenic factor in cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of ER stress on mechanical and electrophysiological functions in the heart and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. A total of 30 rats were randomly divided into control, ER stress inducer (tunicamycin[TN]) and ER stress inhibitor (tunicamycin+4
