Inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system: effects on tachycardia-induced early electrical remodelling in rabbit atrium

Introduction. Tachycardia-induced atrial remodelling (as an equivalent to atrial fibrillation) can be influenced by the renin-angiotensin system. Effects of a seven-day enalapril pre-treatment (EPT, 0.16 mg/kg body weight subcutaneously every 24 h) on ionic currents underlying tachycardia-induced ea...
