<h4>Background</h4>Atrial fibrillation (AF) causes atrial remodeling, and the left atrium (LA) is the favored substrate for maintaining AF. It remains unclear if AF remodels both atria differently and contributes to LA arrhythmogenesis and thrombogenesis. Therefore, we wished to characterize the transcript profiles in the LA and right atrium (RA) in sinus rhythm (SR) and AF respectively.<h4>Methods</h4>Paired LA and RA appendages acquired from patients receiving cardiac surgery were used for ion ...[more]
