Resumo

Spinny mice (Acomys cahirinus) exhibit the ability to regenerate damaged myocardium and functional indices of the heart demonstrated in various models of cardiac pathologies. Cardioregenerative abilities of Acomys are associated with partial preservation of the neonatal phenotype of cardiac tissue in adult animals. An electrophysiology of the untypical Acomys myocardium is extremely poorly elucidated. In the presented study, the bioelectric properties; as well as the mechanisms of parasympathetic control of the pacemaker of the heart of spiny mice was investigated using ECG in vivo recording, registration of action potential and mapping of activation pattern of the supraventricular myocardium. It was found that pacemaker-type action potentials are detected in a significant part of the right atrium while primary activation occurs approximately in 41% or the atrium surface in Acomys. Cholinergic stimulation causes pronounced suppression of automaticity and induces changes in the pattern of activation of the pacemaker myocardium of spiny mice. Cholinergic inhibition of automaticity in Acomys is mediated by IKAch-independent mechanisms. Thus, the cardioregenerative potential of spiny mice manifests in delocalization and non-classical regulation of the cardiac pacemaker.
