Pathophysiological insights provided by EUTRAF: Progressive electrical<br />
uncoupling as determinant <strong>of</strong> AF chronification<br />
Chairpersons: A.J. Camm (london, Gb); s. Hatem (Paris, fR)<br />
basic science<br />
This session focuses on translational aspects <strong>of</strong> electrical uncoupling between muscle bundles providing<br />
the basis for conduction block and enhanced dissociation <strong>of</strong> electrical dissociation in the atria. Myocytefibroblast<br />
interactions have attracted a lot <strong>of</strong> attention in recent years as did the heterogeneity <strong>of</strong> the<br />
electrophysiological properties <strong>of</strong> atrial myocytes. This symposium will not only discuss the molecular<br />
mechanisms <strong>of</strong> altered fibroblast behavior and fibroblast-myocyte interactions but will also aim at<br />
translation <strong>of</strong> these findings to the organ-level and patients using non-invasive imaging techniques.<br />
