Table 2.

Basic AP characteristics of our basal firing model (in bold) are similar to those of some previous SANC models and within experimental data

Characteristics Noble and Noble (49) Central SANC Model Zhang et al. (73) Central SANC Model Demir et al. (10) SANC Model Kurata et al. (27) Central SANC Model Present Model of Central SANC The Range of Experimental Values
MDP, mV −61 −58 −61 −59 −62.7 −66.2 to −51.9
APA, mV 84 79 96 75 75.9 66–78
CL, ms (AP rate, Hz) 263 (3.8) 327 (3.06) 263 (3.8) 307.5 (3.26) 333 (3) 247–389 (2.6–4.1 Hz)

dV/dtmax, V/s 4.7 2.7 9.6 6.4 4.8 4.8–27

All data for prior models were taken from Table 3 in Ref. 71. The ranges of experimental values were evaluated based on data in Table 1 in Ref. 27 (compiled from 12 studies that used physiological temperatures). MDP, maximum diastolic potential; APA, action potential (AP) amplitude; APD50, AP duration at its half amplitude; dV/dtmax, the maximum rate of rise of membrane potential during AP upstroke; CL, cycle length.
