Structure mirroring function: What's the ‘matter’ with the funny current?

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The ‘funny’ (If) current of cardiac pacemaker cells has been first identified in the late 1970s as a major mechanism in the generation and control of cardiac pacemaking. Decades of studies have since described the properties of the funny current and of its molecular components, HCN channels, in the heart and brain, providing the ...

In silico modelling of multi‐electrode arrays for enhancing cardiac drug testing on hiPSC‐CM heterogeneous tissues

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the experimental and computational framework for investigating hiPSC‐CM electrophysiology with MEA systems. The MEA‐based model integrates experimental data with phenotype‐specific ionic models and tissue‐level heterogeneity.

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 ...

Enviromimetics: From exercise mimetics to cognitomimetics in the quest for enhanced brain health and cognition

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A schematic diagram outlining the concept of enviromimetics, and the subclasses of exercise mimetics, epimimetics and cognitomimetics. The rationale is that environmental stimulation and lifestyle factors, including physical activity and cognitive stimulation, have shown beneficial effects across a range of human conditions ...

Blebbistatin reduces calcium buffering in cardiomyocytes: Consequences for cellular electrophysiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Blebbistatin reduces Ca2+ buffering in induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived atrial cardiomyocytes. Blebbistatin, a widely used excitation–contraction uncoupling agent, decreases calcium (Ca2+) buffer affinity (increased buffer dissociation constant), leading to elevated diastolic Ca2+ levels, increased sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+
