Optogenetic Hyperpolarization of Cardiomyocytes Terminates Ventricular Arrhythmia

Cardiac defibrillation to terminate lethal ventricular arrhythmia (VA) is currently performed by applying high energy electrical shocks. In cardiac tissue, electrical shocks induce simultaneously de- and hyperpolarized areas and only depolarized areas are considered to be responsible for VA terminat...
