Direct reprogramming of cardiomyocytes into cardiac Purkinje-like cells
iScience, 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 ...

Development and Function of the Cardiac Conduction System in Health and Disease
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2017 The generation and propagation of the cardiac impulse is the central function of the cardiac conduction system (CCS). Impulse initiation occurs in nodal tissues that have high levels of automaticity, but slow conduction properties.

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

Global alternans instability and its effect on non-linear wave propagation : dynamical Wenckebach block and self terminating spiral waves [PDF]
, 2016 The main mechanism of formation of reentrant cardiac arrhythmias is via formation of waveblocks at heterogeneities of cardiac tissue. We report that heterogeneity and the area of waveblock can extend itself in space and can result formation of new ...

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