Modeling Depolarization Delay, Sodium Currents, and Electrical Potentials in Cardiac Transverse Tubules
T-tubules are invaginations of the lateral membrane of striated muscle cells that provide a large surface for ion channels and signaling proteins, thereby supporting excitation–contraction coupling. T-tubules are often remodeled in heart failure. To better understand the electrical behavior of T-tub...
