Our objective was to comprehensively characterize immune cells in AF, and investigate the potential mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS: Single-cell RNA sequencing and multicolour flow cytometry revealed that T cells constituted the most significant subset alterations in AF, and senescent CD8+ T cells were AF-associated...
