Both renal function decline and systemic inflammation may synergistically increase the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). This study investigates association between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels with new-onset AF in patients diabetes mellitus. We included diabetic without who participated physical exams Kailuan Study from 2006 to 2010. Participants were categorized into four groups based on baseline eGFR hs-CRP levels: 1) high (≥60 mL/min/1.73m²) low (<3 mg/L) (n=6,915), 2) (≥3 (n=3,154), 3) (<60 (n=4,638), 4) (n=1,809). employed multivariable Cox regression analysis evaluate relationships eGFR, hs-CRP, AF, adjusting for confounders including smoking status, alcohol consumption, blood pressure, fasting glucose (FBG), heart rate, lipid levels, body mass index (BMI), medication usage. Competing was also performed. Among 16,516 patients, 222 developed over a mean follow-up 12.6 years. After confounders, elevated reduced significantly associated higher compared eGFR/low group. These findings remained consistent after excluding cases within first 2-year. No significant interaction observed (P=0.227). Subgroup revealed that combination had predictive value primarily males under 60 years age, individuals FBG <9 mmol/L, hypertension, those not hypoglycemic medications. In decreased independently linked an increased emphasizing importance monitoring these factors early detection prevention AF.

Enhanced inflammatory signalling causally contributes to atrial fibrillation (AF) development. Gasdermin D (GSDMD) is an important downstream effector of several inflammasome pathways. However, the role GSDMD, particularly cleaved N-terminal (NT)-GSDMD, in non-immune cells remains elusive. This study aimed elucidate function NT-GSDMD cardiomyocytes (ACMs) and determine its contribution arrhythmogenesis. Human appendages were used assess protein levels localization. A modified adeno-associated virus 9 was employed establish ACM-restricted overexpression mice. The cleavage GSDMD enhanced ACMs AF patients. Atrial cardiomyocyte-restricted mice increased susceptibility pacing-induced AF. pore formation facilitated interleukin-1β secretion from ACMs, promoting macrophage infiltration, while up-regulating 'endosomal sorting complexes required for transport'-mediated membrane-repair mechanisms, which prevented cell death (pyroptosis) ACMs. Up-regulated directly targeted mitochondria, increasing mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, triggered proarrhythmic calcium-release events. NT-GSDMD-induced arrhythmogenesis mitigated by mitochondrial-specific antioxidant MitoTEMPO. mutant lacking pore-formation capability failed cause dysfunction or induce arrhythmia. Genetic ablation Gsdmd spontaneous development a mouse model. These findings unique pyroptosis-independent arrhythmogenesis, involves ROS-driven dysfunction. Mitochondrial-targeted therapy, either reducing ROS production inhibition prevents inducibility, positioning as novel therapeutic target prevention.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common progressive cardiac arrhythmia worldwide and entails serious complications including stroke heart failure. Despite decades of clinical research, current treatment AF suboptimal. This due to a lack knowledge on mechanistic root causes AF. Prevailing theories indicate key role for molecular structural changes in driving electrical conduction abnormalities atria as such triggering Emerging evidence indicates altered atrial systemic immune landscape this so-called electropathology. Immune cells markers play central remodeling by exhibiting dual facets.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a complex arrhythmia. Various modulating factors influence its triggers and substrate. Fibroblasts, adipocytes, inflammatory cells the coagulation system can disrupt cardiomyocyte function. Cardiomyocytes fibroblasts release cytokines that promote local systemic inflammation, enhancing fibroblast activation extracellular matrix deposition, leading to myocardial fibrosis. Fibrosis essential for induction of reentrant arrhythmias, including AF. Adipocytes contribute arrhythmogenesis by secreting pro-inflammatory pro-fibrotic factors, exacerbating inflammation metabolic dysregulation. Inflammatory mediators activate system, which augments this vicious cycle producing promoting fibrosis arrhythmias at same time as increasing risk thrombosis. Understanding these interconnected roles in development progress atrial arrhythmogenic substrate may point potential novel therapeutic targets stabilise or antagonise eventually prevent This review examines role interplay between cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, contributing AF initiation perpetuation.
