Mechanisms and determinants of ultralong action potential duration and slow rate-dependence in cardiac myocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In normal cardiac myocytes, the action potential duration (APD) is several hundred milliseconds. However, experimental studies showed that under certain conditions, APD could be excessively long (or ultralong), up to several seconds.

Sensitivity Analysis of Ion Channel Conductance on Myocardial Electromechanical Delay: Computational Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
It is well known that cardiac electromechanical delay (EMD) can cause dyssynchronous heart failure (DHF), a prominent cardiovascular disease (CVD). This work computationally assesses the conductance variation of every ion channel on the cardiac cell to ...

Theoretical Models and Computational Analysis of Action Potential Dispersion for Cardiac Arrhythmia Risk Stratification

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Reentrant cardiac arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation (AF) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) are common cardiac arrhythmias that account for substantial morbidity and mortality throughout the world.

Deciphering DSC2 arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy electrical instability: From ion channels to ECG and tailored drug therapy

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, 2021
Background Severe ventricular rhythm disturbances are the hallmark of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), and are often explained by structural conduction abnormalities.

Measures of repolarization variability predict ventricular arrhythmogenesis in heptanol-treated Langendorff-perfused mouse hearts

open access: yesCurrent Research in Physiology, 2021
Background: Time-domain and non-linear methods can be used to quantify beat-to-beat repolarization variability but whether measures of repolarization variability can predict ventricular arrhythmogenesis in mice have never been explored.

The ‘Reverse FDUF’ Mechanism of Atrial Excitation–Contraction Coupling Sustains Calcium Alternans—A Hypothesis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Cardiac calcium alternans is defined as beat-to-beat alternations of Ca transient (CaT) amplitude and has been linked to cardiac arrhythmia, including atrial fibrillation.

Deterministic and Stochastic Cellular Mechanisms Contributing to Carbon Monoxide Induced Ventricular Arrhythmias

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Chronic exposure to low levels of Carbon Monoxide is associated with an increased risk of cardiac arrhythmia. Microelectrode recordings from rat and guinea pig single isolated ventricular myocytes exposed to CO releasing molecule CORM-2 and excited at 0 ...
