The Acetylcholine-Activated Potassium Current Inhibitor XAF-1407 Terminates Persistent Atrial Fibrillation in Goats

Aims: The acetylcholine-activated inward rectifier potassium current (IKACh) has been proposed as an atrial-selective target for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). Using a novel selective IKACh inhibitor XAF-1407, the study investigates the effect of IKACh inhibition in goats with pacing-ind...
