Molecular and cellular neurocardiology: Development, cellular and molecular adaptations to heart disease.
Habecker BA., Anderson ME., Birren SJ., Fukuda K., Herring N., Hoover DB., Kanazawa H., Paterson DJ., Ripplinger CM.
The nervous system and cardiovascular system develop in concert and are functionally interconnected in both health and disease. This white paper focuses on the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie neural-cardiac interactions during development, during normal physiological function in the mature system, and during pathological remodeling in cardiovascular disease. The content on each subject was contributed by experts, and we hope that this will provide a useful resource for newcomers to neurocardiology as well as aficionados.
