Multi-scale modelling and simulations into the mechanisms linking neuronal nitric oxide synthase and atrial fibrillation
- Abstract:
-
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Its incidence is projected to rise due to population ageing and increasing prevalence of associated risk factors. AF alters, or remodels, the affected atrial tissue, promoting future occurrences of itself and increasing resistance to treatment. Mechanisms underlying AF initiation and remodelling are not well understood. Recent experimental evidence indicates that decreased levels of the neuronal isoform of Nitric Oxide Synthas...
