Gap junctions: functional effects of molecular structure and tissue distribution.

Advances in experimental medicine and biology - 1 Jan 1997

Saffitz J E

Abstract excerpt

Abnormal conduction is fundamental to the pathogenesis of both atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation. Normal atrial and ventricular myocytes express different combinations of multiple gap junction channel proteins and are interconnected by gap junctions in markedly differen...
