Abstract
Here, we established NpHR Drosophila model, and demonstrated a heartbeat recovery process after red-light excitation induced cardiac arrest. The maximum heart rate (maxHR) and heart rate recovery time increased with prolonged cardiac arrest. ReaChR fly model was also developed to study the relationship of maximum pace-able heart rate (maxPR) with aging. Older flies showed decreased maxPR. An optical coherence microscopy (OCM) system was used to monitor the heart rate in vivo and in real time. The maxHR, recovery time, and maxPR could become promising indicators of cardiac health for various cardiac studies via Drosophila models in future.
