Two‐Pore K+ Channel TREK‐1 Regulates Sinoatrial Node Membrane Excitability

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
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 ...

Research Progress on Pathological Fibrosis of Sinoatrial Node [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Natriuretic Peptide Receptor-C Protects Against Angiotensin II-Mediated Sinoatrial Node Disease in Mice

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2018
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

RyR2(R4496C) Expression Induces Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2011
Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT) is an arrhythmogenic disease characterized by stress-triggered syncope and sudden death. While ventricular tachycardia appears only during stress conditions, CPVT patients manifest basal sino-atrial node (SAN) dysfunction, but the underlying mechanism remains unknown.

A protective role of Nox1/NADPH oxidase in a mouse model with hypoxia-induced bradycardia

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2015
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 Jailed Sinoatrial Node: An Interesting Case of Cardiogenic Shock Secondary to Sinus Arrest Following Percutaneous Intervention

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2022
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 Binding of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) to FGF Receptor-αKlotho Complex Increases Sinoatrial Electrical Activity. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Physiol (Oxf)
ABSTRACT Aim This study aims to investigate whether the Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) modulates the electrical activity of sinoatrial (SAN) cells. The canonical function of FGF23 is to regulate body phosphorus and calcium homeostasis by activating the FGF1 receptors (FGFR1)/α‐Klotho complex in the kidney and parathyroid glands.

Potential effects of intrinsic heart pacemaker cell mechanisms on dysrhythmic cardiac action potential firing

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2015
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 ...

The Organization of the Sinoatrial Node Microvasculature Varies Regionally to Match Local Myocyte Excitability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
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 ...
