Tedisamil in coronary disease: additional benefits in the therapy of atrial fibrillation?

abstract：:Ventricular remodeling is a compensatory response that comprises the processes of apoptosis, muscle cell hypertrophy, and rearrangement of the extracellular matrix fibers connecting the muscles. These processes are associated with transformation of endothelium and/or fibroblasts to myofibroblasts. Neutral matrix metal...
