Structural and Functional Properties of Subsidiary Atrial Pacemakers in a Goat Model of Sinus Node Disease
BackgroundThe sinoatrial/sinus node (SAN) is the primary pacemaker of the heart. In humans, SAN is surrounded by the paranodal area (PNA). Although the PNA function remains debated, it is thought to act as a subsidiary atrial pacemaker (SAP) tissue and become the dominant pacemaker in the setting of...
