| Description | A mathematical model of electrical activity of ventricular cardiac cell including a quantitative description of the transverse-axial tubular system (TAT-system) function is presented. The results of model simulations indicated that the TAT-system can play a role in arrhythmogenesis. Under different conditions the effect can be adverse or protective against initiations of ectopic arrhythmias. |
