AB  - A group of approximately 10,000 cells in the sinoatrial node (SAN), which is located at the entry of the right superior caval vein into the right atrium, is responsible for regular heart beating under different physiological conditions [1]. While the SAN is reliably working for most of our life, in the elderly, sick sinus syndrome (SSS), or sinus node dysfunction (SND) is prevalent [2] and responsible for 30 to 50% of all electronic pacemaker implantations [3]. Moreover, SSS is also often associated with the development of atrial fibrillation [4].
