Non-equilibrium behavior of HCN channels: Insights into the role of HCN channels in native and engineered pacemakers

TL;DR: It is concluded that non-equilibrium properties of HCN channels contribute to cardiac pacing and provide insight for tuning the firing rate of endogenous and induced pacemakers using engineered HCN constructs with distinct gating phenotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene Transfer of a Synthetic Pacemaker Channel Into the Heart A Novel Strategy for Biological Pacing

TL;DR: Gene transfer into ventricular myocardium demonstrated the ability of this construct to induce pacemaker activity with spontaneous action potential oscillations in adult ventricularmyocytes and idioventricular rhythms by in vivo electrocardiography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of the Nonlethal Margin Inside the Visible “Ice-Ball” During Percutaneous Cryoablation of Renal Tissue

TL;DR: Considering the effects of the “heat pump” phenomenon for normal renal tissue, the margin was measured to be 1.15 ± 0.51 mm, suggesting a minimum margin of 3 mm is recommended and extrapolating for renal cancer, which reportedly is more cryoresistant with a lethal temperature of −40 °C, the recommended margin is 6 mm.
