Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: There is evidence showing that genetic factors contribute to the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (Af). We investigated the association between Af and polymorphisms of the connexin 40 (Cx40) gene, which is important in the electrical coupling between atrial myocytes. METHODS: We performed an association study between two Cx40 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (Cx40 -44 and +71 allele) and Af....
