[HTML][HTML] Ionic and substrate mechanisms of atrial fibrillation: rotors and the excitation frequency approach

O Berenfeld - Archivos de cardiología de México, 2010 - scielo.org.mx
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia in humans, however
its mechanisms are poorly understood and its therapy is often sub–optimal. This article …

Voltage-clamp-based methods for the detection of constitutively active acetylcholine-gated IK, ACh channels in the diseased heart

N Voigt, S Makary, S Nattel, D Dobrev - Methods in enzymology, 2010 - Elsevier
Vagal nerve stimulation can promote atrial fibrillation (AF) that requires activation of the
acetylcholine (ACh)-gated potassium current IK, ACh. In chronic AF (cAF), IK, ACh shows …
