Persistence of pro-arrhythmic spatio-temporal calcium patterns in atrial myocytes: a computational study of ping waves (2012)
Journal Article
Thul, R., Coombes, S., & Bootman, M. D. (2012). Persistence of pro-arrhythmic spatio-temporal calcium patterns in atrial myocytes: a computational study of ping waves. Frontiers in Physiology, 3, Article 279. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2012.00279

Clusters of ryanodine receptors within atrial myocytes are confined to spatially separated layers. In many species, these layers are not juxtaposed by invaginations of the plasma membrane (transverse tubules; 'T-tubules'), so that calcium-induced-cal...

Neuronal spike-train responses in the presence of threshold noise (2012)
Journal Article
Coombes, S., Thul, R., Laudanski, J., Palmer, A., & Sumner, C. (in press). Neuronal spike-train responses in the presence of threshold noise. Frontiers in Life Science, 5(3-4), https://doi.org/10.1080/21553769.2011.556016

The variability of neuronal firing has been an intense topic of study for many years. From a modelling perspective it has often been studied in conductance based spiking models with the use of additive or multiplicative noise terms to represent chan...

Subcellular calcium dynamics in a whole-cell model of an atrial myocyte (2012)
Journal Article
Thul, R., Coombes, S., Roderick, H. L., & Bootman, M. D. (2012). Subcellular calcium dynamics in a whole-cell model of an atrial myocyte. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 109(6), 2150-2155. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1115855109

In this study, we present an innovative mathematical modeling approach that allows detailed characterization of Ca 2+ movement within the three-dimensional volume of an atrial myocyte. Essential aspects of the model are the geometrically realistic re... Read More about Subcellular calcium dynamics in a whole-cell model of an atrial myocyte.
