Mechanisms underlying the cardiac pacemaker: the role of SK4 calcium-activated potassium channels
Acta Pharmacologica Sinica, 2016 The proper expression and function of the cardiac pacemaker is a critical feature of heart physiology. The sinoatrial node (SAN) in human right atrium generates an electrical stimulation approximately 70 times per minute, which propagates from a ...
