A Case of Complete AV Blockade in Patient with Lyme Borreliosis
Lyme disease (tick-borne borreliosis) is an infectious vector-borne natural focal disease that tends to a chronic and recurrent course with a predominant damage to the skin, nervous system, musculoskeletal system and heart. Cardiac features is manifested,

The mind body problem, part three: ascension of sexual function to cerebral level [PDF]
Physiologically, the somatic nervous system intervenes in external interaction between the body and environment, while autonomic nervous system ensures the functioning of internal organs.

Metabolic syndrome remodels electrical activity of the sinoatrial node and produces arrhythmias in rats. [PDF]
In the last ten years, the incidences of metabolic syndrome and supraventricular arrhythmias have greatly increased. The metabolic syndrome is a cluster of alterations, which include obesity, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, glucose intolerance and ...

Two‐Pore K+ Channel TREK‐1 Regulates Sinoatrial Node Membrane Excitability
BackgroundTwo‐pore K+ channels have emerged as potential targets to selectively regulate cardiac cell membrane excitability; however, lack of specific inhibitors and relevant animal models has impeded the effort to understand the role of 2‐pore K ...

Summary: Sinoatrial node (SAN) disease mechanisms are poorly understood, and therapeutic options are limited. Natriuretic peptide(s) (NP) are cardioprotective hormones whose effects can be mediated partly by the NP receptor C (NPR-C). We investigated the

Complete occlusion of the sinoatrial node artery can be a complication of percutaneous intervention (PCI) to the right coronary artery (RCA). When this happens, dysfunction of the sinus node may follow resulting in sinus arrest.

The cardiac sodium channel displays differential distribution in the conduction system and transmural heterogeneity in the murine ventricular myocardium [PDF]
Cardiac sodium channels are responsible for conduction in the normal and diseased heart. We aimed to investigate regional and transmural distribution of sodium channel expression and function in the myocardium.

Impact of functional studies on exome sequence variant interpretation in early-onset cardiac conduction system diseases [PDF]
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.

A protective role of Nox1/NADPH oxidase in a mouse model with hypoxia-induced bradycardia
Although it has been reported that endotoxin-induced expression of Nox1 in the heart contributes to apoptosis in cardiomyocytes, functional role of Nox1 at the physiological expression level has not been elucidated.

The heart’s regular electrical activity is initiated by specialized cardiac pacemaker cells residing in the sinoatrial node. The rate and rhythm of spontaneous action potential firing of sinoatrial node cells are regulated by stochastic mechanisms that ...
