The role of the Frank-Starling law in the transduction of cellular work to whole organ pump function: a computational modeling analysis.
We have developed a multi-scale biophysical electromechanics model of the rat left ventricle at room temperature. This model has been applied to investigate the relative roles of cellular scale length dependent regulators of tension generation on the transduction of work from the cell to whole organ...
