The inward rectifier current inhibitor PA‐6 terminates atrial fibrillation and does not cause ventricular arrhythmias in goat and dog models

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The density of the inward rectifier current (I(K1)) increases in atrial fibrillation (AF), shortening effective refractory period and thus promoting atrial re‐entry. The synthetic compound pentamidine analogue 6 (PA‐6) is a selective and potent I(K1) inhibitor. We tested PA‐6...
