A model of cellular cardiac-neural coupling that captures the sympathetic control of sinoatrial node excitability in normotensive and hypertensive rats

Hypertension is associated with sympathetic hyperactivity. To represent this neural-myocyte coupling, and to elucidate the mechanisms underlying sympathetic control of the cardiac pacemaker, we developed a new (to our knowledge) cellular mathematical model that incorporates signaling information fro...
