Lead (Pb++) effect on human atrial action potential under normal and atrial fibrillation conditions. In silico study

Lead (Pb++) is a toxic agent that can exert adverse effects on the cardiac human health. Pb++ blocks the Ltype Ca++ channels. A decrease in L-type calcium current (ICaL) is an important mechanism favoring atrial fibrillation. It is important to study the electrophysiological Pb++ effects on the atri...
