Fibrosis, Myofibroblasts, and Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
There can be little doubt about the association between interstitial fibrosis and heart rhythm disturbance. In patients with cardiomyopathy, the extent of myocardial fibrosis has been linked with arrhythmic burden and risk of sudden cardiac death.1 In atrial fibrillation (AF), the relationship between fibrosis and electric dysfunction seems, if ...

Advanced ablation strategies for management of post-surgical atrial arrhythmias. [PDF]
Post-surgical arrhythmias include a wide range of arrhythmias occurring late after cardiac surgery and represent a complex substrate for catheter ablation either because of extended scar and remodeling or because of limited access to the area of interest.

Protein analysis of atrial fibrosis via label-free proteomics in chronic atrial fibrillation patients with mitral valve disease. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrosis, as a hallmark of atrial structure remodeling, plays an important role in maintenance of chronic atrial fibrillation, but interrelationship of atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation is uncertain.

Effect of myocyte-fibroblast coupling on the onset of pathological dynamics in a model of ventricular tissue [PDF]
Managing lethal cardiac arrhythmias is one of the biggest challenges in modern cardiology, and hence it is very important to understand the factors underlying such arrhythmias.

Atrial fibrosis is a key contributor to atrial fibrillation (AF). Long non-coding ribonucleic acids (lncRNAs) were demonstrated to exhibit a key role in fibrotic remodeling; however, the function of nuclear-enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) in ...

Post-operative atrial fibrillation is influenced by beta-blocker therapy but not by pre-operative atrial cellular electrophysiology [PDF]
We investigated whether post-cardiac surgery (CS) new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) is predicted by pre-CS atrial cellular electrophysiology, and whether the antiarrhythmic effect of beta-blocker therapy may involve pre-CS pharmacological remodeling ...

Prednisone Ameliorates Atrial Inflammation and Fibrosis in Atrial Tachypacing Dogs
Atrial inflammation and fibrosis have long been considered culprits in the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). Prior clinical studies showed that corticosteroid therapy is beneficial in patients with AF. Here we sought to determine whether prednisone treatment prevents atrial tachypacing (ATP) induced atrial fibrosis.Dogs were randomized into the ...

Atrial fibrosis is the basis for the occurrence and development of atrial fibrillation (AF) and is closely related to the Warburg effect, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and mitochondrion dysfunctions-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Hydrogen sulfide (

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disorder in clinical practice. Today proved that traditional pharmacologic therapies are effective in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation with no structural disorders of the myocardium ...
