Angiotensin‐Converting Enzyme‐2 Overexpression Improves Atrial Remodeling and Function in a Canine Model of Atrial Fibrillation

BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrosis is an important factor in initiating and maintaining atrial fibrillation. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that atrial angiotensin‐converting enzyme‐2 (ACE2) overexpression might inhibit atrial collagen accumulation and improve atrial remodeling in a c...
