What have we learned from two-pore potassium channels? Their molecular configuration and function in the human heart [PDF]
Two-pore domain potassium channels (K2P) control excitability, stabilize the resting membrane potential below firing threshold, and accelerate repolarisation in different cells.

Newly identified NO-sensor guanylyl cyclase/connexin 43 association is involved in cardiac electrical function [PDF]
Background: Guanylyl cyclase, a heme-containing alpha 1 beta 1 heterodimer (GC1), produces cGMP in response to Nitric oxide (NO) stimulation. The NO-GC1-cGMP pathway negatively regulates cardiomyocyte contractility and protects against cardiac ...

Progressive cardiac conduction defect often associated with variants in sodium voltage-gated channel SCN5A gene and variants in the L-type calcium voltage-gated channel CACNA1D gene are implicated in sinoatrial node dysfunction.

Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) is a grave medical condition that can precipitate sudden death. The pathogenesis of SSS remains incompletely understood. Existing research postulates that the fundamental mechanism involves increased fibrosis of the sinoatrial ...

IntroductionLithium is a well-known agent to cause systemic toxicity with its narrow therapeutic window. Toxic cardiac effects are known but seldomly reported and can manifest as sinus node dysfunction (SND) ranging from delayed conduction to sinus ...

Electrical Conduction System Remodeling in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes Mellitus Rat Heart
Cardiovascular complications are common in type 1 diabetes mellitus (TIDM) and there is an increased risk of arrhythmias as a result of dysfunction of the cardiac conduction system (CCS). We have previously shown that, in vivo, there is a decrease in the

The role of CaMKII-dependent augmented INa,L in arrhythmias during acute β-adrenergic stimulation [PDF]
The heart has evolved elaborate pathways for adapting function to acute stress stimuli [e.g. sympathetic stimulation of β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs)].
