Mechano-chemical Interactions in Cardiac Sarcomere Contraction: A Computational Modeling Study
We developed a model of cardiac sarcomere contraction to study the calcium-tension relationship in cardiac muscle. Calcium mediates cardiac contraction through its interactions with troponin (Tn) and subsequently tropomyosin molecules. Experimental studies have shown that a slight increase in intrac...
