Abstract: The Na+ - CA++ exchanger is a reversible regulation mechanism which can work for depleting or augmenting the internal Ca++ concentration, as long as there is enough quantity of free Na+. In previous papers we have showed some simulations of a Ca++ regulation simulator, including the Na+ - CA++ exchanger, which has demonstrated to be reliable for simulating the cell response to ionic and electric stimulus, providing the internal Ca++ concentration is in the physiologic range at the beginning of the simulation. In this paper, we pose several corrections to the original model and we also discuss the inclusion of additional kinetic and sensitivity parameters of the mechanisms in order to follow the biological role of the exchanging current.
