Calcium Regulation on the Atrial Regional Difference of Collagen Production Activity in Atrial Fibrogenesis

Background: Atrial fibrosis plays an important role in the genesis of heart failure and atrial fibrillation. The left atrium (LA) exhibits a higher level of fibrosis than the right atrium (RA) in heart failure and atrial arrhythmia. However, the mechanism for the high fibrogenic potential of the LA...
