Atrial fibrosis influences atrial fibrillation (AF) development by transforming growth factor
beta 1 (TGF-β1)/Smad pathway. Although microRNAs are implicated in the pathogenesis of …

Objective Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major cause of stroke with lifetime risks. microRNAs
(miRNAs) are associated with AF attenuation, yet the mechanism remains unknown. This …

Atrial fibrillation (AF), one of the common clinical arrhythmias, lacks effective treatment
manners. Cardiac fibroblasts play an essential role in myocardial fibrosis and cardiac …

Purpose. Studies have found that microRNAs (miRNAs) are closely associated with atrial
fibrillation, but their specific mechanism remains unclear. The purpose of this experiment is …

Background microRNAs (miRs) have been reported to regulate cell biological functions. To
explore the underlying mechanism of miR-21 involvement in patients with atrial fibrosis and …

Atrial fibrosis serves as an important contributor to atrial fibrillation (AF). Recent data have
suggested that micro RNA‐30c (miR‐30c) is involved in fibrotic remodelling and cancer …

Alteration of tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMP)/matrix metalloproteinases
(MMP) associated with collagen upregulation has an important role in sustained atrial …

Background: Atrial fibrosis is a landmark of cardiac remodeling to perpetuate atrial fibrillation
(AF), and recent studies have indicated that microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential regulators of …

Background—Congestive heart failure (CHF) causes atrial fibrotic remodeling, a substrate
for atrial fibrillation (AF) maintenance. MicroRNA29 (miR29) targets extracellular matrix …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are regarded as a potential method for the treatment of atrial
fibrillation (AF) although its molecular mechanism remains unknown. We found in our …
