Evidence of Superior and Inferior Sinoatrial Nodes in the Mammalian Heart

J. A. Brennan, Q. Chen, A. Gams, J. Dyavanapalli, D. Mendelowitz, W. Peng, I. R. Efimov

The paper identifies two distinct sinoatrial nodes in mammalian hearts, sSAN and iSAN, which control fast and slow heart rates under sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation, respectively.

Sudden heart rate reduction upon optogenetic release of acetylcholine from cardiac parasympathetic neurons in perfused hearts

A. Moreno, K. Endicott, M. Skancke, M. K. Dwyer, J. Brennan, I. Efimov, G. Trachiotis, D. Mendelowitz, M. Kay

This paper demonstrates optogenetic activation of cardiac parasympathetic neurons to acutely slow heart rate, mimicking acetylcholine effects and confirming cholinergic mediation.
