Description

Despite atrial fibrillation (AF) being a common, clinically important, and economically significant public health problem, the initiation mechanisms of atrial remodeling during AF is still unclear. Furthermore, really few experimental models have the power to investigate these mechanisms in a human invitro two-dimensional (2D) monolayer of atrial cardiomyocytes.

The purpose of this work is to use human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived atrial cardiomyocytes to develop a new human in vitro atrial model of AF able to reproduce and evaluate the arrhythmia initiation and maintenance mechanisms.
