"Voltage-gated Na1 channels (NaV channels) drive the rapid upstroke of action potentials in cardiac and skeletal muscle and in most neurons, thereby serving as initiators of electrical activity in excitable tissue. Nine genes encode a family of homologous of NaV channel pore-forming a subunits. While channels are open, Na1 ions flux through the central pore down an electrochemical gradient, further depolarizing the membrane and triggering an action potential."
