Recent advances in gene therapy for atrial fibrillation

Abstract

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disorder in adults and a major cause of stroke. Unfortunately, current treatments for AF are suboptimal as they are not targeting the molecular mechanisms underlying AF. In this regard, gene therapy is emerging as a promising approach for mechanismbased treatment of AF. In this review, we summarize recent advances and challenges in gene therapy for this important cardiovascular disease.
