Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Antigens in the AV-Node of a Cardiac Conduction System—A Case Report
Mounting evidence indicates that new arrhythmic events frequently occur during and after coronavirus disease (COVID-19), posing additional mortality risk in older-aged and critically ill patients.

Zebrafish Models in Therapeutic Research of Cardiac Conduction Disease
Malfunction in the cardiac conduction system (CCS) due to congenital anomalies or diseases can cause cardiac conduction disease (CCD), which results in disturbances in cardiac rhythm, leading to syncope and even sudden cardiac death.

Desmin variants: Trigger for cardiac arrhythmias?
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.

Familial Dilated Cardiomyopathy and Isolated Left Ventricular Noncompaction Associated With Lamin A/C Gene Mutations [PDF]
[Abstract] LMNA mutations have been associated with familial or sporadic dilated cardiomyopathy (DC), with or without conduction system disease. We studied the LMNA gene in 67 consecutive patients with DC (18 had familial DC, 17 had possible familial DC,

A Case of Complete AV Blockade in Patient with Lyme Borreliosis
Lyme disease (tick-borne borreliosis) is an infectious vector-borne natural focal disease that tends to a chronic and recurrent course with a predominant damage to the skin, nervous system, musculoskeletal system and heart. Cardiac features is manifested,

CaMKII-dependent regulation of cardiac Na(+) homeostasis. [PDF]
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.

Revolutionizing cardiovascular medicine: targeted therapies for the cardiac conduction system
Arrhythmogenic cardiovascular disorders are associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Whether cardiac conduction disease is caused by genetic defects, procedural perturbations, valvular disease, ischemia, aging, or heart failure, new ...
