Role of the liver in splanchnic extraction of atrial natriuretic factor in the rat [PDF]
, 1992 Mesenteric, hepatic and splanchnic extraction of C-terminal and N-terminal atrial natriuretic factor was investigated in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Plasma concentrations (mean ± S.E.M.) of C-terminal atrial natriuretic factor were 55.0 ± 6.1 fmol/ml, 31.2

A Comprehensive Review of Atrial Infarction [PDF]
Texas Heart Institute JournalAtrial infarction is often undiagnosed in patients with underlying ischemic heart disease and is identified only later, upon autopsy. One of the main challenges in diagnosing the condition is its localization within the affected atria.

Atrial Natriuretic Factor and the Atrial Function [PDF]
Cardiology, 1998 Accessible online at: http://BioMedNet.com/karger Dear Sir, I read with interest the report by Takeichi et al. [1] on the relationship between left atrial function and plasma levels of atrial natriuretic peptide in patients with various types of heart disease. I would like to make three comments.

Transient outward K+ current (ITO) reduction prolongs action potentials and promotes afterdepolarisations: a dynamic-clamp study in human and rabbit cardiac atrial myocytes [PDF]
, 2012 Background and aim: Human atrial transient outward K+ current (ITO) is decreased in a variety of cardiac pathologies, but how ITO reduction alters action potentials (AP) and arrhythmia mechanisms is poorly understood, owing to non-selectivity of ITO ...

HL-1 cells express an inwardly rectifying K+ current activated via muscarinic receptors comparable to that in mouse atrial myocytes [PDF]
, 2010 An inwardly rectifying K^+ current is present in atrial cardiac myocytes that is activated by acetylcholine (I_{KACh}). Physiologically, activation of the current in the SA node is important in slowing the heart rate with increased parasympathetic tone ...
