Description

Alfredo Mauriello and co-authors review the role of cell power plants in atrial fibrillation in two thousand twenty-four. Fibrillation is a common lasting irregular heartbeat, and cutting tools have improved care in recent years. Yet the root causes of the condition stay partly unclear, and ways to prevent it are still sought.

The review links the faulty power plants, called mitochondria, to stress from oxygen and to shifts in ion flow inside heart cells. Those shifts can make the heart's electric system unstable. Signs that fibrillation eases when the power plants work better support the link. The authors sum up drugs that target these cell parts and call for stronger drug work.
