Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: Primary rat atrial myocytes were cultured and a rapid paced cell model was established. The atrial cells were divided into five groups with pacing durations within 0 and 24 h. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were applied to detect the messenger ribonucleic acid ( mRNA) and proteins of L-type calcium channel alpha1c and potassium channel Kv4.3, respectively. RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS:
