Studying Cardiac Arrhythmias in the Mouse—A Reasonable Model for Probing Mechanisms?
Abstract
The normal mechanical functioning of the heart depends on proper electrical functioning, reflected in the sequential activation of pacemaker cells, and the normal propagation of activity through the ventricles. Myocardial electrical activity is evident in the form of action potentials, reflecting the activation (and inactivation) of depolarizing (Na(+), Ca(2+)) and repolarizing (K(+)) current channels. There are multiple types of myocardial K(+) channels, contributing to regional differences in action potential waveforms and to the generation of normal cardiac rhythms. The conduction and propagation of activity through the myocardium depends on electrical coupling between cells, mediated by gap junction channels. In the diseased myocardium, action potential waveforms and conduction are affected markedly, owing to changes in the functional expression of repolarizing K(+) and other channels. These changes can lead to desynchronization of the heart and to arrhythmia generation. There is presently greater interest in defining the cellular, molecular, and systemic mechanisms contributing to the generation and the maintenance of cardiac arrhythmias. Although a variety of experimental (animal) model systems have been (and are being) exploited in these efforts, the mouse is being used increasingly, due to the ease with which molecular genetic strategies can be applied. The important issue is whether the mouse is an appropriate model system to explore arrhythmia mechanisms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
