A concise review on the anatomy of the atrioventricular node in mammals [PDF]
The Iranian Journal of Veterinary Science and Technology, 2009 Cardiac conduction system enables the heart to pulsate continuously by producing electric impulse and conducting it. As the anatomical information about cardiac conduction system in human being and other mammals needed in various fields of sciences, such

Nonlinear physics of electrical wave propagation in the heart: a review [PDF]
, 2016 The beating of the heart is a synchronized contraction of muscle cells (myocytes) that are triggered by a periodic sequence of electrical waves (action potentials) originating in the sino-atrial node and propagating over the atria and the ventricles ...

Dynamics of conduction blocks in a model of paced cardiac tissue [PDF]
, 2005 We study numerically the dynamics of conduction blocks using a detailed electrophysiological model. We find that this dynamics depends critically on the size of the paced region.

Cardiac conduction system anomalies and sudden cardiac death: insights from murine models
Frontiers in Physiology, 2012 The cardiac conduction system (CCS) is a series of specialized tissues in the heart responsible for the initiation and co-ordination of the heartbeat. Alterations in the CCS, especially the His-Purkinje system, have been identified as an important player

The effects of repetitive electric cardiac stimulation in dogs with normal hearts, complete heart block and experimental cardiac arrest [PDF]
, 1955 Direct cardiac stimulation was conducted in the open chest. In normal animals, auricular stimulation at frequencies faster than the spontaneous rate caused little change in vascular pressures or cardiac output.

CaMKII-dependent regulation of cardiac Na(+) homeostasis. [PDF]
, 2014 Na(+) homeostasis is a key regulator of cardiac excitation and contraction. The cardiac voltage-gated Na(+) channel, NaV1.5, critically controls cell excitability, and altered channel gating has been implicated in both inherited and acquired arrhythmias.
