Modeling Action Potential Propagation During Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Through a Three-Dimensional Computational Model
… that tissue and recording the resulting membrane potential with respect to time. The results of this analysis demonstrated that the developed model is able to depict variations in tissue thickness through the difference in membrane potential recordings. A one-way ANOVA analysis confirmed that the …

Potassium channels for high-frequency action potential generation in GABAergic interneurons of Rat Hippocampus
Using the nucleated patch configuration that allowed me to investigate somatic ion channels under ideal voltage-clamp conditions, I started to examine the functional properties of Kv channels expressed in orien-alveus (OA) interneurons in the hippocampal CA1 region, a major class of dendritic …
