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).

Function and dysfunction of human sinoatrial node [PDF]
Korean Circulation Journal, 2015 Sinoatrial node (SAN) automaticity is jointly regulated by a voltage (cyclic activation and deactivation of membrane ion channels) and Ca(2+) clocks (rhythmic spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) release).

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.

Junctional Pacemaker May Replace the Sinoatrial Node
Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications, 2021 Junctional rhythm is usually seen in the clinic with different causes. We report a case of bicuspid aortic valve accompanied by sinoatrial node dysfunction.

Biochemical and biomechanical properties of the pacemaking sinoatrial node extracellular matrix are distinct from contractile left ventricular matrix. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Extracellular matrix plays a role in differentiation and phenotype development of its resident cells. Although cardiac extracellular matrix from the contractile tissues has been studied and utilized in tissue engineering, extracellular matrix properties ...

Impact of functional studies on exome sequence variant interpretation in early-onset cardiac conduction system diseases [PDF]
, 2020 Aims The genetic cause of cardiac conduction system disease (CCSD) has not been fully elucidated. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) can detect various genetic variants; however, the identification of pathogenic variants remains a challenge.

Sinoatrial-Node Entrance Block [PDF]
Circulation, 1971 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.

Telocytes in the human sinoatrial node [PDF]
Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2017 AbstractThe sinoatrial node (SAN) is composed mostly of pacemaker, transitional and Purkinje‐like cells. Pacemaker cells, especially in the centre of the SAN, are surrounded by dense fibrous tissue and do not have any contact with transitional cells. We hypothesize that the SAN contains telocytes that have contacts with pacemaker cells and contractile ...
