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 ...
