Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common cardiac arrhythmias. It reduces quality of life and increases the risk of complications such as stroke. Although progress has been made in understanding its pathogenesis, the key cellular subtypes and therapeutic targets remain unclear. METHODS: We applied single-cell transcriptomics to identify critical cellular subtypes in AF. High-dimensional...
