Paradigm shift: new concepts for HCN4 function in cardiac pacemaking [PDF]
Hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels are the molecular correlate of the I-f current and are critically involved in controlling neuronal excitability and the autonomous rhythm of the heart.

Holter monitoring, sinoatrial conduction time, prognosis [PDF]
Background: To evaluate the usefulness of the Holter method of sinoatrial conduction time (SACT) calculation in predicting the future occurrence of sinus node disease, and the emergence of indications for permanent pacing in patients with unexplained ...

Tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome: Electrophysiological mechanisms and future therapeutic approaches (Review) [PDF]
Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) encompasses a group of disorders whereby the heart is unable to perform its pacemaker function, due to genetic and acquired causes.

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.

Computer Algorithms for Automated Detection and Analysis of Local Ca2+ Releases in Spontaneously Beating Cardiac Pacemaker Cells [PDF]
Local Ca Releases (LCRs) are crucial events involved in cardiac pacemaker cell function. However, specific algorithms for automatic LCR detection and analysis have not been developed in live, spontaneously beating pacemaker cells. Here we measured LCRs using a high-speed 2D-camera in spontaneously contracting sinoatrial (SA) node cells isolated from ...

Enhancing network robustness for malicious attacks [PDF]
In a recent work [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 108, 3838 (2011)], the authors proposed a simple measure for network robustness under malicious attacks on nodes. With a greedy algorithm, they found the optimal structure with respect to this quantity is an onion structure in which high-degree nodes form a core surrounded by rings of nodes with decreasing ...
