Genetic Complexity of Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 The pacemaker cells of the cardiac sinoatrial node (SAN) are essential for normal cardiac automaticity. Dysfunction in cardiac pacemaking results in human sinoatrial node dysfunction (SND).

Computer modelling of the sinoatrial node [PDF]
Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 2007 Over the past decades patch-clamp experiments have provided us with detailed information on the different types of ion channels that are present in the cardiac cell membrane. Sophisticated cardiac cell models based on these data can help us understand how the different types of ion channels act together to produce the cardiac action potential.

The sinoatrial node, a heterogeneous pacemaker structure [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research, 2000 This article focuses on the regional heterogeneity of the mammalian sinoatrial (SA) node in terms of cell morphology, pacemaker activity, action potential configuration and conduction, densities of ionic currents (i(Na), i(Ca,L), i(to), i(K,r), i(K,s) and i(f)), expression of gap junction proteins (Cx40, Cx43 and Cx45), autonomic regulation, and ageing.

Single-cell transcriptome analysis reveals CD34 as a marker of human sinoatrial node pacemaker cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe sinoatrial node regulates the heart rate throughout life. Failure of this primary pacemaker results in life-threatening, slow heart rhythm. Despite its critical function, the cellular and molecular composition of the human sinoatrial node is not ...

CaMKII in sinoatrial node physiology and dysfunction
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2014 The calcium and calmodulin dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is present in sinoatrial node (SAN) pacemaker cells and is required for physiological fight or flight SAN beating rate responses.

Electrophysiological and Molecular Mechanisms of Sinoatrial Node Mechanosensitivity [PDF]
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021 The understanding of the electrophysiological mechanisms that underlie mechanosensitivity of the sinoatrial node (SAN), the primary pacemaker of the heart, has been evolving over the past century.

Research Progress on Pathological Fibrosis of Sinoatrial Node [PDF]
Fayixue Zazhi, 2021 Human heart rhythm is mainly regulated and controlled by the sinoatrial node. Fibrosis plays an important regulating role in adjusting the structural and functional integrity of the sinoatrial node pacemaker complex.
