Arginine vasopressin modulates electrical activity and calcium homeostasis in pulmonary vein cardiomyocytes

Abstract Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently coexists with congestive heart failure (HF) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) V1 receptor antagonists are used to treat hyponatremia in HF. However, the role of AVP in HF-induced AF still remains unclear. Pulmonary veins (PVs) are central in the g...
