New aspects of endocrine control of AF and possibilities for clinical translation Latest interesting research (very technical though) from Oxford University. It's about time research is conducted on Endocrine dysfunction and AF. “Although features of AF remodelling are well-established and its mechanisms are partly understood, important pathways pertinent to AF arrhythmogenesis are still unidentified. The discovery of these missing pathways has the potential to lead to therapeutic breakthroughs. Endocrine dysfunction is well-recognized to lead to AF. In this review, we discuss endocrine and cardiocrine signalling systems that directly, or as a consequence of an underlying cardiac pathology, contribute to AF pathogenesis.” “The influence of endocrine/paracrine dysfunction on AF risk and mechanisms is evaluated and discussed. We focus on the most recent findings and reflect on the potential of translating them into clinical application.” [academic.oup.com] https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,185505,185505#msg-185505 Tue, 22 Sep 2026 13:58:21 +0000 Phorum 5.2.23 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,185505,185506#msg-185506 Re: New aspects of endocrine control of AF and possibilities for clinical translation https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,185505,185506#msg-185506 bettylou4488 AFIBBERS FORUM Fri, 20 May 2022 15:48:40 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,185505,185505#msg-185505 New aspects of endocrine control of AF and possibilities for clinical translation https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,185505,185505#msg-185505
