Low prevalence of connexin-40 gene variants in atrial tissues and blood from atrial fibrillation subjects

BACKGROUND: The atrial gap junction protein connexin-40 (Cx40) has been implicated to play an important role in atrial conduction and development of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the frequency of Cx40 mutations in AF populations and their impact on Cx40 expression remains unclear. In this study...
