Electrical activation of the heart requires intercellular transfer of current through gap junctions connecting individual cardiac myocytes. Using a combination of light and electron microscopic techniques and molecular approaches, we have characterized the number, size, and spatial distribution of i

## Abstract Intracellular Na^+^ concentration ([Na^+^]~i~) is very important in modulating the contractile and electrical activity of the heart. Upon electrical excitation of the myocardium, voltage‐dependent Na^+^ channels open, triggering the upstroke of the action potential (AP). During the AP,
