Anabolic androgenic steroids (AASs) represent a large group of synthetic derivatives of
testosterone, produced to maximize anabolic effects and minimize the androgenic ones …

At least two functionally distinct transient outward K+ current (Ito) phenotypes can exist
across the free wall of the left ventricle (LV). Based upon their voltage‐dependent kinetics of …

Mathematical models were developed to reconstruct the action potentials (AP) recorded in
epicardial and endocardial myocytes isolated from the adult rat left ventricle. The main goal …

Hypokalemia is a common biochemical finding in cardiac patients and may represent a side
effect of diuretic therapy or result from endogenous activation of renin–angiotensin system …

In the mammalian heart, the right ventricle (RV) has a distinct structural and
electrophysiological profile compared to the left ventricle (LV). However, the possibility that …

Background/Aims: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a devastating cardiovascular disease
with a high rate of morbidity and mortality, partly due to enhanced arrhythmogenicity …

The right and left ventricles have traditionally been studied as individual entities.
Furthermore, modifications found in diseased left ventricles are assumed to influence on …

The four known members of the KCND/Kv4 channel family encode voltage-gated potassium
channels. Recent studies provide evidence that members of the Kv4 channel family are …

Aims/hypothesis. To identify the possible causes of the lengthening of the action potential
duration described in patients affected by diabetes mellitus.¶ Methods. We studied the …

Transient outward K+ current (I to) downregulation following sustained tachycardia in vivo is
usually attributed to tachycardiomyopathy. This study assessed potential direct rate …
