Changes in gap junction proteins Connexin30. 2 and Connexin40 expression in the sinoatrial node of rats with dexmedetomidine-induced sinus bradycardia
Braz. J. Anesth. (Impr.); 72 (6), 2022
Abstract Background Dexmedetomidine (Dex) is widely used, and its most common side effect is bradycardia. The complete mechanism through which Dex induces bradycardia has not been elucidated. This research investigates the expression of gap junction proteins Connexin30.2 (Cx30.2) and Connexin40 (Cx40) w...
