Whole Genome Expression Differences in Human Left and Right Atria Ascertained by RNA Sequencing

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The left and right atria have different susceptibilities toward developing arrhythmias, with left atrial arrhythmias more commonly observed. To understand the molecular basis for such differences, we catalogued micro (mi)RNA and mRNA expression differences by next generation sequencing. METHODS AND RESULTS: Four human left-right atrial pairs were subjected to whole-genome expression analyses via...
