Mutations change excitability and the probability of re-entry in a computational model of cardiac myocytes in the sleeve of the pulmonary vein

2021-09-24

Abstract excerpt

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common health problem with substantial individual and societal costs. The origin of AF has been debated for more than a century, and the precise, biophysical mechanisms that are responsible for the initiation and maintenance of the chaotic electrochemical waves that define AF, remains unclear. It is well accepted that the outlet of the pulmonary veins is the primary anatomical site of...
