Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a cardiac arrhythmia caused by electrophysiological anomalies in the
atrial tissue, tissue degradation, structural abnormalities, and comorbidities. A direct …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent and progressive cardiac arrhythmia worldwide
and is associated with serious complications such as heart failure and ischemic stroke …

Despite the enormous progress in the treatment of atrial fibrillation, mainly with the use of
invasive techniques, many questions remain unanswered regarding the pathomechanism of …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common and significant cardiac arrhythmia in clinical
practice, however the pathophysiological mechanism of AF has not been fully explained. At …

The molecular mechanisms underlying atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common form of
arrhythmia, are poorly understood and therefore target-specific treatment options remain an …

Oxidative stress has been suggested to play a role in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation
(AF). Indeed, the prevalence of AF increases with age as does oxidative stress. However …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent cardiac arrhythmia. It is a common major cause of serious
diseases and is an increasing health-care burden. AF is associated with an excess amount …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia and its prevalence
increases with age. The irregular and rapid contraction of the atria can lead to ineffective …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) commonly coexist, yet the molecular
mechanisms of this association have not been determined. We hypothesized that an energy …

Mitochondria are critical for maintaining normal cardiac function, and a deficit in
mitochondrial energetics can lead to the development of the substrate that promotes atrial …
