Abstract

Ca2+ waves in cardiac myocytes can lead to arrhythmias owing to delayed after-depolarisations. Based on Ca2+ regulation from the junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum (JSR), a mathematical model was developed to investigate the interplay of clustered and rogue RyRs on Ca2+ waves. The model successfully reproduces Ca2+ waves in cardiac myocytes, which are in agreement with experimental results. A new wave propagation mode of "spark-diffusion-quark-spark" is put forward. It is found that rogue RyRs greatly increase the initiation of Ca2+ sparks, further contribute to the formation and propagation of Ca2+ waves when the free Ca2+ concentration in JSR lumen ([Ca2+]lumen) is higher than a threshold value of 0.7 mM. Computational results show an exponential increase in the velocity of Ca2+ waves with [Ca2+]lumen. In addition, more CRUs of rogue RyRs and Ca2+ release from rogue RyRs result in higher velocity and amplitude of Ca2+ waves. Distance between CRUs significantly affects the velocity of Ca2+ waves, but not the amplitude. This work could improve understanding the mechanism of Ca2+ waves in cardiac myocytes.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 11 May 2018.
All research outputs
#20,486,884
of 23,049,027 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Physiology
#9,495
of 13,791 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#287,636
of 326,637 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Physiology
#367
of 495 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,049,027 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,791 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.6. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 326,637 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 495 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
