Evolution of ventricular myocyte electrophysiology.
The relative importance of regulatory versus structural evolution for the evolution of different biological systems is a subject of controversy. The primacy of regulatory evolution in the diversification of morphological traits has been promoted by many evolutionary developmental biologists. For physiological traits, however, the role of regulatory evolution has received less attention or has b...
متن کاملQuantitative comparison of cardiac ventricular myocyte electrophysiology and response to drugs in human and nonhuman species.
Explanations for arrhythmia mechanisms at the cellular level are usually based on experiments in nonhuman myocytes. However, subtle electrophysiological differences between species may lead to different rhythmic or arrhythmic cellular behaviors and drug response given the nonlinear and highly interactive cellular system. Using detailed and quantitatively accurate mathematical models for human, ...
متن کاملElectrophysiology of Heart Failure Using a Rabbit Model: From the Failing Myocyte to Ventricular Fibrillation
Heart failure is a leading cause of death, yet its underlying electrophysiological (EP) mechanisms are not well understood. In this study, we use a multiscale approach to analyze a model of heart failure and connect its results to features of the electrocardiogram (ECG). The heart failure model is derived by modifying a previously validated electrophysiology model for a healthy rabbit heart. Sp...
متن کاملA computational model integrating electrophysiology, contraction, and mitochondrial bioenergetics in the ventricular myocyte.
An intricate network of reactions is involved in matching energy supply with demand in the heart. This complexity arises because energy production both modulates and is modulated by the electrophysiological and contractile activity of the cardiac myocyte. Here, we present an integrated mathematical model of the cardiac cell that links excitation-contraction coupling with mitochondrial energy ge...
متن کاملElectrophysiology of ventricular inversion.
Electrophysiological studies were carried out in 7 subjects with angiographically proven ventricular inversion in order to determine if this technique could be used in the study of arrhythmias in such subjects. Three subjects with normal PR intervals on the electrocardiogram had normal low right atrium to His (LRA-H) and His to ventricle (HV) intervals at rest. With atrial pacing, I of these 3 ...
