Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Architecture of the Human Sinus Node: Insights Into the Function of the Cardiac Pacemaker

TL;DR: Ion channels show a complex and heterogeneous pattern of expression in the SN, paranodal area, and RA in humans, and the expression pattern is appropriate to explain pacemaking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computer Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of the Sinoatrial Node

TL;DR: For the first time, a 3D anatomically detailed mathematical model of the sinoatrial node has been constructed, and this shows the presence of a specialized interface between the SAN and atrial muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distribution and Functional Characterization of Equilibrative Nucleoside Transporter-4, a Novel Cardiac Adenosine Transporter Activated at Acidic pH

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that ENT4, in addition to playing roles in cardiac serotonin transport, contributes to the regulation of extracellular adenosine concentrations, in particular under the acidotic conditions associated with ischemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential Expression of Ion Channel Transcripts in Atrial Muscle and Sinoatrial Node in Rabbit

TL;DR: Quantification of individual transcripts showed that there are significant differences in the abundance of 63% of the transcripts studied between the SAN and atrial Muscle, and cluster analysis showed that the transcript profile of the SAN is significantly different from that of atrial muscle.
Book ChapterDOI

Connexins in the sinoatrial and atrioventricular nodes.

TL;DR: In the AVN, there is a similar pattern of expression of connexins as in the center of the SAN and this is likely to be in large part responsible for the slow conduction of the action potential.
