A simple in vivo atrial fibrillation model of rat induced by transesophageal atrial burst pacing.

Abstract:

:A simple in vivo closed-chest atrial fibrillation (Af) model of rats was developed. Af was reproducibly induced by transesophageal atrial burst pacing for 30 s in each of the pentobarbital-anesthetized rats, whereas the cardiohemodynamic condition as well as the inducibility and duration of Af episode was stable over time. Moreover, the anti-Af effect of the class Ic drug pilsicainide was confirmed in this model, which was essentially the same as those reported previously in other Af animal models and clinical practice. Thus, this new model may become an alternative to current techniques.

  • Osthole inhibits pancreatic cancer progression by directly exerting negative effects on cancer cells and attenuating tumor-infiltrating M2 macrophages.

    abstract::Pancreatic cancer has remained a major cause of cancer-related deaths. A hallmark of pancreatic cancer is extensive stromal reactions, resulting in a unique tumor microenvironment, especially the involvement of macrophages. These tumor-educated cells limit the efficacy of chemotherapy. Therefore, it is necessary to id...
