PITX2 upregulation increases the risk of chronic atrial fibrillation in a dose-dependent manner by modulating I(Ks) and I(CaL)—insights from human atrial modelling
BACKGROUND: Functional analysis has shown that the paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 2 (PITX2) overexpression associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) leads to the slow delayed rectifier K(+) current (I(Ks)) increase and the L-type Ca(2+) current (I(CaL)) reduction observed in isolated ri...
