A model for cooperative gating of L-type Ca(2+) channels and its effects on cardiac alternans dynamics

In ventricular myocytes, membrane depolarization during the action potential (AP) causes synchronous activation of multiple L-type Ca(V)1.2 channels (LTCCs), which trigger the release of calcium (Ca(2+)) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). This results in an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) (Ca(i)...
