Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging-derived atrial fibrosis in patients with pre-atrial fibrillation [PDF]

Open Heart
Introduction Atrial fibrosis identified on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has been proposed as a preprocedural imaging biomarker for patient selection for rhythm control interventions in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).

Phosphatidylethanolamine aggravates Angiotensin II-induced atrial fibrosis by triggering ferroptosis in mice

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
As atrial fibrosis is the main feature of atrial structural remodeling, inhibiting atrial fibrosis is crucial to the prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF) progression.

Involvement of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in p300/p53-mediated age-related atrial fibrosis [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), a key regulator of the fibrinolytic system, is also intimately involved in the fibrosis. Although PAI-1 may be involved in the occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and thrombosis in the elderly, but whether it

Expression of tumor endothelial marker 1 in cardiac fibroblast contributes to atrial fibrosis in atrial fibrillation [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Atrial fibrosis is associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) and stroke. Tumor endothelial marker 1 (TEM1/CD248) is a transmembrane protein that appears in mesenchymal lineage-derived cells only during embryogenesis. Re-upregulation of TEM1 in fibroblasts

Atrial Fibrosis by Late Gadolinium Enhancement Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation: 5‐Year Follow‐Up Data

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Late gadolinium enhancement magnetic resonance imaging is an effective tool for assessment of atrial fibrosis. The degree of left atrial fibrosis is a good predictor of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation success at 1 year, but the association ...

Collagen-targeted tracers for molecular imaging of atrial fibrosis and sensitive detection of atrial fibrillation [PDF]

npj Cardiovascular Health
Atrial fibrillation (AF), often accompanied by atrial fibrosis, is challenging to diagnose sub-clinically and reverse once established. Molecular imaging targeting excess atrial collagen may enable earlier detection of atrial fibrosis and its associated ...

Glutathione peroxidase 4 as a potential biomarker for atrial fibrosis and recurrence of atrial fibrillation [PDF]

Heart Rhythm O2
Background: Atrial fibrosis mediates the development and maintenance of atrial fibrillation (AF). Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is a ferroptosis biomarker.

Assessment of Left Atrial Fibrosis by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Ischemic Stroke Patients Without Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Left atrial (LA) fibrosis is a marker of atrial cardiomyopathy and has been reported to be associated with both atrial fibrillation and ischemic stroke.

Hydrogen decreases susceptibility to AngII-induced atrial fibrillation and atrial fibrosis via the NOX4/ROS/NLRP3 and TGF-β1/Smad2/3 signaling pathways. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Atrial fibrillation (AF) represents the commonly occurring cardiac arrhythmia and the main factor leading to stroke and heart failure. Hydrogen (H2) is a gaseous signaling molecule that has the effects of anti-inflammation and antioxidation.

Sulfur-containing amino acids and their metabolites in atrial fibrosis

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Atrial fibrosis, a symbol of atrial structural remodelling, is a complex process involved in the occurrence and maintenance of atrial fibrillation (AF). Atrial fibrosis is regulated by multiple factors. Sulfur containing amino acids and their metabolites,
