The Pacemaker Potential of the SA Node and the AV Node

  • www.interactive-biology.com - In this episode, I talk about how the Pacemaker Potential results in the signal that causes the heart to beat. I show how the greater conductance for Sodium ions in the Pacemaker Cells in the S.A. Node cause the cells to depolarize, opening voltage-gated Calcium channels when the membrane potential reaches threshold. This results in the action potential. Then Potassium channel open, letting Potassium ions leave, repolarizing the cells.

    Thank you. You just saved me a possible 40 minutes trying to figure out what my textbook is trying to tell me haha, 20 minutes of aimlessly staring into the pages and another 20 trying to read half latin/greek derived words. You display complex effects in simple terms and still manage to include all the crucial information.

    There are two types of cardiac muscles: contractile muscle cells and autorhythmic muscle cells. Contractile cells make up 90% of muscle cells in the heart and autorhythmic cells make up 10% in the nodes. Autorhythmic muscle cells start the action potentials from the SA and AV nodes that disseminate into contractile cells causing them to contract. InteractiveBiology described the action potential of autorhythmic cells, you described contractile cells. Hope this helped :P

    @petercourt That's a great question. I'm actually not sure that I know the answer to that one. I tried looking it up, but couldn't find that. My assumption would be that there is a Calcium pump in the membrane that pumps it back out. That would make sense and would cause there to be a driving force for Calcium ions to move back into the cell.

    I like your series of videos but in this case, you really should explain how the Na+/K+ pump works in the pacemaker cell first to set up the potential gradient before the voltage sensitive K+ channels close while the Na+ is still pumped out. At this negative membrane potential, the Na+ starts to flow into the cell against the concentration gradient by diffusion, thus activating the potential of the cell which is the cause leading to -40mV where Ca+2 ions start flooding in.

    great video, possible when the levels of serem in the r. atrium reach a point bridging the av node with the sa node , crossing the terminals with a temporary disconnect or a bigger pathway for current a spark(ark) is generated when on disconnect, possibly a gas is released by the nodes into the upper level of r. atrium when the level of rbc's reaches a high level point creates a bridge between the nodes igniting the gas creating combustion, can you measure concentrations in r. atrium
