The Hippo pathway regulates density-dependent proliferation of iPSC-derived cardiac myocytes
Inducing cardiac myocytes to proliferate is considered a potential therapy to target heart disease, however, modulating cardiac myocyte proliferation has proven to be a technical challenge.

Polyploidization of transplanted cardiac myocytes [PDF]
Pieces of cardiac ventricular tissue of late embryonic or 1-day postnatal rats, implanted beneath the kidney capsule of adult syngeneic hosts, formed viable, beating transplants. These transplants were investigated over a 40-day postoperative course. In the transplants, cellular binucleation and nuclear polyploidization occurred according to the same ...

It has been suggested that a new type of large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BK) channel is distributed in the inner mitochondrial membrane (mitoKCa channel) and that its opening may attenuate ischemic cardiac injury.

Epigenetic regulation of cardiac myocyte differentiation†[PDF]
Cardiac myocytes (CMs) proliferate robustly during fetal life but withdraw permanently from the cell cycle soon after birth and undergo terminal differentiation. This cell cycle exit is associated with the upregulation of a host of adult cardiac-specific genes.

Transient outward K+ current (ITO) reduction prolongs action potentials and promotes afterdepolarisations: a dynamic-clamp study in human and rabbit cardiac atrial myocytes [PDF]
Background and aim: Human atrial transient outward K+ current (ITO) is decreased in a variety of cardiac pathologies, but how ITO reduction alters action potentials (AP) and arrhythmia mechanisms is poorly understood, owing to non-selectivity of ITO ...

Cellular Physiology of Rat Cardiac Myocytes in Cardiac Fibrosis: In Vitro Simulation Using the Cardiac Myocyte/Cardiac Non-Myocyte Co-Culture System [PDF]
An understanding of the cellular physiology of cardiac myocytes (MCs) and non-myocytes (NMCs) may help to explain the mechanisms underlying cardiac hypertrophy. Despite numerous studies using MC/NMC co-culture systems, it is difficult to precisely evaluate the influence of each cell type because of the inherent cellular heterogeneity of such a system ...

The calcium signaling plays a crucial role in expansion and contraction of cardiac myocytes. This calcium signaling is achieved by calcium diffusion, buffering mechanisms and influx in cardiac myocytes.

Modeling the isolated cardiac myocyte
Computer modeling of cardiac myocytes has flourished in recent years. Models have evolved from mathematical descriptions of ionic channels alone to more sophisticated formulations that include calcium transport mechanisms, ATP production and metabolic pathways. The increased complexity is fueled by the new data available in the field.

The Unmasking Effect: Propofol-Induced Brugada Pattern in a Critically Ill Patient
Brugada syndrome is a known cause of dysrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. It is linked to mutations in myocardial sodium channel leading to hyperexcitable cardiac myocytes.

Gene Transfer into Cardiac Myocytes [PDF]
Traditional methods for DNA transfection are often inefficient and toxic for terminally differentiated cells, such as cardiac myocytes. Vector-based gene transfer is an efficient approach for introducing exogenous cDNA into these types of primary cell cultures.
