Modulation of gap junctions and the intracellular resistance pathway in guinea-pig myocardium
Myocardial intracellular communication via gap junctions (GJ) is fundamental to action potential (AP) propagation facilitating ordered atrial and ventricular contraction. Cardiac arrhythmias can be initiated by increased intracellular (Ca2+), and are associated with abnormal AP conduction due to inc...
