Abstract excerpt
The L-type Ca(2+) channel (Ca(V)1.2) plays an important role in action potential (AP) generation, morphology, and duration (APD) and is the primary source of triggering Ca(2+) for the initiation of Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+)-release in cardiac myocytes. In this article we present: 1), a detailed kinetic model of Ca(V)1.2, which is incorporated into a model of the ventricular mycoyte where it interacts with a kinetic...
