SARS-CoV-2 Infection Induces Ferroptosis of Sinoatrial Node Pacemaker Cells
Background: Increasing evidence suggests that cardiac arrhythmias are frequent clinical features of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Sinus node damage may lead to bradycardia.

Cellular and molecular landscape of mammalian sinoatrial node revealed by single-cell RNA sequencing
Bioelectrical impulses intrinsically generated within the sinoatrial node (SAN) trigger the contraction of the heart in mammals. Though discovered over a century ago, the molecular and cellular features of the SAN that underpin its critical function in ...

Mechanisms of Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: The ability to increase heart rate during exercise and other stressors is a key homeostatic feature of the sinoatrial node (SAN).

Lithium-Induced Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction [PDF]
Lithium is a common mood-stabilizing drug for manic patients. We describe a case of sinoatrial node dysfunction in a patient with serum lithium levels within the therapeutic range. Given the symptomology and severity of the patient's illness, after placing a permanent pacemaker, the patient was discharged on the preadmission dose of lithium.

The cardiac cycle starts when an action potential is produced by pacemaking cells in the sinoatrial node. This cycle is repeated approximately 100 000 times in humans and 1 million times in mice per day, imposing a monumental metabolic demand on the ...

Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) is a disease with bradycardia or arrhythmia. The pathological mechanism of SSS is mainly due to the abnormal conduction function of the sinoatrial node (SAN) caused by interstitial lesions or fibrosis of the SAN or surrounding ...

Altered microRNA and mRNA profiles during heart failure in the human sinoatrial node
Heart failure (HF) is frequently accompanied with the sinoatrial node (SAN) dysfunction, which causes tachy-brady arrhythmias and increased mortality. MicroRNA (miR) alterations are associated with HF progression.

Sinoatrial-Node Entrance Block [PDF]
Sinus-node function was characterized in 13 patients during cardiac catheterization by the introduction of progressively premature atrial depolarizations. Curves relating the extent of sinus-node depression following these premature depolarizations and their degree of prematurity were constructed.

Significance The funny current (If) is critical for spontaneous activity in cardiac pacemaker cells; however, its precise role remains enigmatic because it activates mostly outside the physiological voltage range and its kinetics are slow relative to the
