Inhibition of inward rectifier potassium currents by chloroquine causes significant electrophysiological changes in the rat thoracic veins myocardium
Thoracic (caval and pulmonary) vein myocardial tissue is considered as a source of ectopic activity capable of initiating atrial fibrillation. The reasons which underline thoracic vein proarrhythmicity may be related to the expression level of the inward rectifier potassium current (IK1) critical fo...
