Abstract
Noise is present in nature, and it affects the nervous and cardiovascular system. Noise added to stimuli may change the performance of excitable cells. In this paper, we study the effect of noise on the two main heart cell types: pacemaker and myocardial cells. This study investigates whether noise can induce changes in calcium dynamics on the two main heart cell types: pacemaker and myocardial cells, when stimuli with periodic electrical signals are disturbed by Gaussian white noise. Calcium dynamic parameters were obtained using imaging signals. Our results show that low intensities of noise favor amplitude and raise rate calcium dynamics, although our results show that the pacemaker cells are not affected by a noisy stimulus. Altogether, these findings suggest that noise plays a key role in calcium dynamics.
