- W2023530149 abstract "Time for primary review 3 days. See article by Workman et al. [5] (pages 518–525) in this issue. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia found in clinical practice. AF is a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia characterised by uncoordinated atrial activation with consequent deterioration of atrial mechanical function [1]. The ventricular response to AF depends on the electrophysiological properties of the atrio-ventricular (AV) node, the level of vagal or sympathetic tone, and the action of drugs with which the patient is being treated [2]. Very often, AF occurs in conjunction with other cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, valve disease, or cardiac failure. However, in a certain percentage of patients (20–50%) AF is not associated with any underlying pathology [3]. Treatment with β-blockers is considered to be efficacious for controlling the ventricular heart rate during AF, which is likely due to the ability of these drugs to depress the conduction velocity through the AV node. Moreover, in patients with adrenergically mediated AF, β-blockers represent a first-line treatment [4]. However, the underlying mechanism of action of β-blockers in human atrial fibrillation has not been established. In fact, the mechanisms by which most cardioactive drugs are effective in clinical practice are unknown, despite the knowledge of their effects on ionic currents, receptors, signal transduction, etc. Indeed, there is an important gap of knowledge that involves drug effects on the target cells; atrial myocytes from patients with AF, in this case. In this regard, different ethical and technical problems have limited these studies.In the present issue of Cardiovascular Research, Workman et al. [5] present experimental evidence of an electrical remodelling in human atrial cells from patients chronically treated with β-blockers, the so-called ‘pharmacological remodelling’, consistent with a partial … *Tel.: +34-91-384-1474; fax: +34-91-394-1470." @default.
