Inward rectifier potassium current (IK1) model optimization

The slow delayed rectifier potassium current was modeled here. experimental iPSC-CM data collected from Ma et al. (2011) , Kurokawa Lab (Li et al. (2017)), and the Jalife Lab (Herron et al. (2016)) in order to optimize data specific model.

Channels.cellml is the main CellML file which shows the I-V curves for different channels fitted to different experimental data from multiple laboratories. Its associated SED-ML file contains all the simulation settings. All the CellML files and SED-ML files need to be download in a same folder, as well as python script (fig9-new.py) which can reproduce the I-V curve for IK1. In the python script, required SED-ML file is loaded into the script and by running the code following figure is reproduced. fig9-new.py is used to generate the simulation and reproduces the graph shown in Figure 9 in the original study. In order to reproduce Figure 9, once all the files are downloaded to the same folder, execute the following script from the command line (command prompt):
