Thrilled to share our latest research on the new molecule implicated in #Afib. We identified that FKBP5 is downregulated in AF pts. Using various FKBP5-deficiency models, we uncovered a correlation between its deficiency, increased NCX1 levels, and arrhythmic Ca release events 🧵
Wang et al. discovered the novel role of #FKBP5-deficiency in #HIF1a activation & its subsequent impact on the transcription of #NCX1. Learn more about the mechanism of NCX upregulation in #Afib at ahajrnls.org/3r9ejZz @JiaSongZeal @naliphd @xwehrens @JordiHeijman
