Genesis and Regulation of the Heart Automaticity

Mangoni, Matteo E., Nargeot, Joël·2008·Physiological Reviews

Abstract

The heart automaticity is a fundamental physiological function in higher organisms. The spontaneous activity is initiated by specialized populations of cardiac cells generating periodical electrical oscillations. The exact cascade of steps initiating the pacemaker cycle in automatic cells has not yet been entirely elucidated. Nevertheless, ion channels and intracellular Ca 2+signaling are necessary for the proper setting of the pacemaker mechanism. Here, we review the current knowledge on the cellular mechanisms underlying the generation and regulation of cardiac automaticity. We discuss evidence on the functional role of different families of ion channels in cardiac pacemaking and review recent results obtained on genetically engineered mouse strains displaying dysfunction in heart automaticity. Beside ion channels, intracellular Ca 2+release has been indicated as an important mechanism for promoting automaticity at rest as well as for acceleration of the heart rate under sympathetic nerve input. The potential links between the activity of ion channels and Ca 2+release will be discussed with the aim to propose an integrated framework of the mechanism of automaticity.

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.
