Models of the cardiac L‐type calcium current: A quantitative review

open access: yesWIREs Mechanisms of Disease, Volume 15, Issue 1, January/February 2023., 2023
We discuss 73 published models of mammalian ICaL and find differences in gating kinetics, electrochemical driving force, and sensitivity to internal calcium concentrations, leading to considerable variability in their predictions. Abstract The L‐type calcium current (ICaL) plays a critical role in cardiac electrophysiology, and models of ICaL are vital
