Sialic Acid Modulation of Cardiac Voltage-Gated Sodium Channel Gating Throughout the Developing Myocardium
The proper orchestration of voltage-gated ion channel gating is vital to maintaining normal heart rhythms throughout an animal's lifespan. Voltage-gated sodium channels, Nav, are responsible for the initiation of the cardiac action potential, which leads to cardiac systole. Comparison of neonat...
