The Na+/Ca2+ exchanger type-1 (NCX1) is a bidirectional transporter that is controlled by membrane potential and transmembrane gradients of Na+ and Ca2+. Vascular smooth muscle NCX1 plays an important role in intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and Ca2+ signaling. We found that NCX1 was upregulated in the pulmonary arteries of mice exposed to chronic hypoxia (10% O2 for 4 weeks). Hence, we investigated the pathophysiological role of NCX1 in hypoxia-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), using NCX1-heterozygous (NCX1+/-) mice, i
