A model of the electrical activity of excitable membrane was used to simulate action potential propagation in cardiac cells. Using an implicit method for solving finite difference equations, propagation through the intercalated disc region between two abutting cells was studied. A model of interaction was constructed and parameters of the cellular junction determined. Estimates of the intercalated disc resistance were then made from these junction parameters using a field analysis of the junction. Values of approximately 4 Omega-cm(2) were found and correlate well with experimentally measured values.
利用可兴奋膜电活动模型模拟心脏细胞动作电位的传播。采用隐式方法求解有限差分方程,研究了动作电位在两个相邻细胞间闰盘区域的传播。构建了相互作用模型并确定了细胞连接的参数。然后利用连接的场分析从这些连接参数估计闰盘电阻。得到的值约为4Ω·cm²,与实验测量值相关性良好。
