Comparison of ion channel gene expression in the sinus node of the human, rabbit, rat and mouse
- Abstract:
-
Small animal species (e.g. mouse) have a faster heart rate than large animal species (e.g. human). We have looked for the reason from the functional level to the gene level in the human, rabbit, rat and mouse using a 'metaanalysis' approach. For example, review of the literature shows that, in isolated sinus node cells, the spontaneous rate is 4.6× faster and the action potential is 2.4 × shorter in mouse than in human. Although data on ionic currents are limited, data suggests that the densi...
