Analysis of Genes Involved in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: Comparisons of ‘Trigger’ and ‘Substrate’ Differences
1 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Recent research has improved our understanding of the pulmonary vein and surrounding left atrial (LA-PV) junction and the left atrial appendage (LAA), which are considered the 'trigger' and 'substrate' in the development of atrial fibrillation (AF), respectively. Herein, with the aim of identifying the underlying potential genetic mechanisms, we compared differences in gene expression between...
