Optimal Dynamical Range of Excitable Networks at Criticality

open access: yes, 2007
A recurrent idea in the study of complex systems is that optimal information processing is to be found near bifurcation points or phase transitions.

The causative role of amyloidosis in the cardiac complications of Alzheimer's disease: a comprehensive systematic review

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of the bidirectional causative link between cerebral amyloid‐beta (Aβ) angiopathy and cardiovascular disease in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Common cardiovascular risk factors like microvascular thrombosis, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, hypertension and atherosclerosis lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and ...

Cellular and molecular cross‐talk in atrial fibrillation: The role of non‐cardiomyocytes in creating an arrhythmogenic substrate

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Illustration of cellular and molecular cross‐talk in atrial fibrillation. Left: a schematic of cardiac tissue showing cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, adipocytes, inflammatory cells and the coagulation system. Right: direct and indirect cross‐talk between different cell types, with the impact of direct cross‐talk on action potential (

Biochemical and immunochemical analysis of the arrangement of connexin43 in rat heart gap junction membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A 43 × 10^3 M_r protein (designated connexin43 or Cx43) is a major constituent of heart gap junctions. The understanding of its arrangement in junctional membranes has been extended by means of site-directed antibodies raised against synthetic peptides ...

The glia‐immune network: Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes as microglial co‐ordinators in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The glia‐immune network involves the communication(s) of glia via immune signalling pathways. In neuro‐homeostasis these pathways have been shown to modulate key processes such as synaptic pruning and myelination. The dynamics of these processes is critical to CNS function.

Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical

Models of cardiomyocyte–non‐myocyte electrical interactions

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cardiomyocyte–non‐myocyte (CM–NM) electrotonic coupling. Left: conceptual contact‐based interactions between CM and other NM via connexin (Cx) proteins. Three basic scenarios are proposed: (i) ‘zero‐sided coupling’ where there are no electrical connections between CM and NM, (ii) ‘single‐sided coupling’ where NM are connected to ...

Gap junctional and ephaptic coupling in cardiac electrical propagation: homocellular and heterocellular perspectives

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Intricate cellular electrical coupling networks in the heart. Various cell types couple the central cardiomyocyte through gap junctional contacts, with the exception of neurons. Whether ephaptic coupling (EpC) occurs in homocellular or heterocellular contexts beyond cardiomyocyte–cardiomyocyte interactions remains unclear ...
