Modeling Effects of L-Type Ca(2+) Current and Na(+)-Ca(2+) Exchanger on Ca(2+) Trigger Flux in Rabbit Myocytes with Realistic T-Tubule Geometries

The transverse tubular system of rabbit ventricular myocytes consists of cell membrane invaginations (t-tubules) that are essential for efficient cardiac excitation-contraction coupling. In this study, we investigate how t-tubule micro-anatomy, L-type Ca(2+) channel (LCC) clustering, and allosteric...
