In situ oxidative stress and atrial cell deaths in patients with valve disease.

CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggests that oxidative stress originating from in situ leukocytes within the atrial myocardium may be the potential trigger for excessive transcriptional activities and apoptotic cell death within the atrial myocardium of valve disease patients. This represents a potential therapeutic target. PMID: 30033881 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
