Synopsis

Based on symposia on developmental cardiology presented at the XV World Congress of International Society for Heart Research, this text includes discussion on: molecular biology of the developing heart; cardiac growth and development; development of excitation-contration coupling; effect of increased workload; and the effect of hypoxia and ischaemia. Designed to stimulate interest in the mechanisms of normal and pathological cardiac development, this text provides a global picture for characterizing the developing heart. With the aim of promoting prevention, and not just more and better treatment, this text offers guidance on the biological, electrophysiological, morphological, functional, biochemical, and pharmacological approaches employed by renowned scientists worldwide.
