Electrophysiological properties of cardiac muscle in the anterior mitral valve leaflet and the adjacent atrium in the dog. Possible implications for the genesis of atrial dysrhythmias.

Transmembrane action potentials were recorded from multiple sites in isolated canine anteromedial left atrial wall preparations with the anterior mitral valve leaflet attached. The preparations were superfused with Tyrode's solution. When the left atrial wall was electrically stimulated, activity propagated into the mitral valve leaflet. Typical atrial action potentials occurred in atrial wall ...

Sinus node response to premature atrial stimulation in the rabbit studied with multiple microelectrode impalements.

In this study we investigated the response of the isolated rabbit sinus node to ectopic atrial premature beats elicited late in the atrial cycle. In three experiments the response of at least 45 different fibers of the sinus node was recorded, whereas, in other experiments, investigation was less extensive. In this way the spread of activation of the total pacemaker area could be mapped accurat...

Effect of verapamil on the sinoatrial and atrioventricular nodes of the rabbit and the mechanism by which it arrests reentrant atrioventricular nodal tachycardia.

The effects of verapamil, an antiarrhythmic drug that apparently blocks slow inward currents, were studied on the isolated, superfused sinoatrial (SA) and atrioventricular (AV) nodes of the rabbit heart with intracellular microelectrodes. Verapamil decreased the rate of spontaneous impulse initiation by the SA node. This effect could be overcome with epinephrine. Concomitantly, verapamil decrea...

Connexin40 imparts conduction heterogeneity to atrial tissue.

Impulse propagation in cardiac tissue is a complex process in which intercellular coupling through gap junction channels is a critical component. Connexin40 (Cx40) is an abundant gap junction protein that is expressed in atrial myocytes. Alterations in the expression of Cx40 have been implicated in atrial arrhythmogenesis. The purpose of the current study was to assess the role of Cx40 in atria...

Clinical Investigation Ectopic Left Atrial Rhythm That Produces Qrs Changes in Absence of Wolff-parkinson-white Syndrome

Iti an 18-year-old patient without manifest or concealed Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, spontaneous and paced left atrial impulses penetrated a left-sided AV nodal input and thereafter activated the ventricles in a normal fashion exclusively through the His-Purkinje system. On the other hand, sinus and paced right atrial impulses entered a right-sided atrioventricular nodal input that was comp...
