Pharmacologic TWIK‐Related Acid‐Sensitive K+ Channel (TASK‐1) Potassium Channel Inhibitor A293 Facilitates Acute Cardioversion of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation in a Porcine Large Animal Model

Background The tandem of P domains in a weak inward rectifying K+ channel (TWIK)‐related acid‐sensitive K+ channel (TASK‐1; hK2P3.1) two‐pore–domain potassium channel was recently shown to regulate the atrial action potential duration. In the human heart, TASK‐1 channels are specifically expressed i...
