Description preview
Significance: In every heartbeat, cardiac muscle cells generate contractile force to pump blood into circulation
against a mechanical load. Cardiomyocytes also sense load changes and adjust the contractility to maintain
cardiac output. Excessive overload in pathological conditions leads to heart diseases such as arrhythmias and
heart failure.…
