Repolarization adaptation to rapid change in heart rate in human models – a review

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This review focuses on non‐invasive assessment of repolarization duration and dispersion (heterogeneity) adaptation to change in heart rate (HR). HR was increased incrementally by left atrial pacing during an electrophysiology (EP) study and by a bolus injection of atropine and in a step up/down fashion by repeated right atrial ...

Structural determinants of re‐entrant drivers in atrial fibrillation: insights from digital twins derived from 3D micrometre‐resolution imaging of human heart

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Digital heart models of human donor atria with cardiac co‐morbidities revealed that regions with AWT variation, aligned myofibres adjacent to disorganised zones and fibrotic borders promoted the localisation and stability of RDs. AWT had a global influence, whereas fibre orientation and fibrosis exerted chamber‐specific regional ...

Computational modelling of the pro‐ and antiarrhythmic effects of atrial high rate‐dependent trafficking of small‐conductance calcium‐activated potassium channels

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Small‐conductance calcium‐activated potassium (SK) channels are important for atrial repolarization and can be targeted for atrial‐specific antiarrhythmic treatments. We developed a computational model with a calcium sensor to study the effects of increased pacing rate (5 Hz), which enhances SK‐channel gating and forward ...

Atrial fibrosis in atrial fibrillation: Mechanisms, mapping techniques and clinical applications

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Summary of key aspects of atrial fibrosis in atrial fibrillation, highlighting atrial fibrosis as a hallmark of atrial fibrillation (AF). (1) Different types of fibrosis (blue), illustrating reparative and reactive fibrosis; (2) fibrosis detection techniques (green), illustrating late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic ...

In silico predictions of action potential propagation in doxorubicin cardiotoxicity: A parametric study using preclinical 3D magnetic resonance imaging‐based fibrotic left ventricle models

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the study's methodology and key findings. In a preclinical swine model, doxorubicin administration induced cardiotoxicity, characterized by diffuse fibrotic remodelling and altered electrical function, as assessed by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and electrophysiological mapping.

Deciphering pro‐arrhythmogenic mechanisms of EPAC in human atrial cardiomyocytes

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study aimed to investigate the effect of exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP (EPAC) on the regulation of human atrial cardiomyocyte electrophysiology and their potential involvement in the onset of atrial fibrillation (AF).
