Desmin variants: Trigger for cardiac arrhythmias?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Desmin (DES) is a classical type III intermediate filament protein encoded by the DES gene. Desmin is abundantly expressed in cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscle cells.

Direct reprogramming of cardiomyocytes into cardiac Purkinje-like cells

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Currently, there are no treatments that ameliorate cardiac cell death, the underlying basis of cardiovascular disease. An unexplored cell type in cardiac regeneration is cardiac Purkinje cells; specialized cells from the cardiac conduction ...

A 21st century view of the anatomy of the cardiac conduction system

open access: yesTranslational Research in Anatomy, 2022
Introduction: Since the discovery of the major components of the cardiac conduction system (CCS) by the early 20th century we have seen many technological advancements that have allowed immense insight into the CCS tissues. In this review we will discuss

Genetic and physiologic dissection of the vertebrate cardiac conduction system.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2008
Vertebrate hearts depend on highly specialized cardiomyocytes that form the cardiac conduction system (CCS) to coordinate chamber contraction and drive blood efficiently and unidirectionally throughout the organism.

Cardiac conduction system- A detailed study in 46 cases of sudden death

open access: yesJournal of Pathology of Nepal, 2015
Background: Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease is the modern pandemic and is said to be responsible for a major chunk of sudden cardiac deaths. However, in few cases; especially among the young, conduction system abnormalities were found to be the ...
