Mechanism of contraction rhythm homeostasis for hyperthermal sarcomeric oscillations of neonatal cardiomyocytes

Abstract The heart rhythm is maintained by oscillatory changes in [Ca2+]. However, it has been suggested that the rapid drop in blood pressure that occurs with a slow decrease in [Ca2+] preceding early diastolic filling is related to the mechanism of rapid sarcomere lengthening associated with spont...
