Activation of Histone Deacetylase-6 Induces Contractile Dysfunction Through Derailment of alpha-Tubulin Proteostasis in Experimental and Human Atrial Fibrillation

Description

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is characterized by structural remodeling, contractile dysfunction, and AF progression. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) influence acetylation of both histones and cytosolic proteins, thereby mediating epigenetic regulation and influencing cell proteostasis. Because the exact function of HDACs in AF is unknown, we investigated their role in experimental and clinical AF models.
