| abstractText | Damage to the atrioventricular conduction system (AVCS), the main electrical connection between the atrial and ventricular chambers, can result in a variety of cardiac conduction disorders. Here, we provide a protocol for selective damage of the mouse AVCS to study its response during injury. We describe tamoxifen-induced cellular ablation, detection of AV block through electrocardiography, and quantification of histological and immunofluorescence markers to analyze the AVCS. This protocol can be used to study mechanisms associated with AVCS injury repair and regeneration. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Wang et al. (2021).(1). |
