Atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently coexists with congestive heart failure (HF) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) V1 receptor antagonists are used to treat hyponatremia in HF. However, the role of AVP in HF-induced AF still remains unclear. Pulmonary veins (PVs) are central in the genesis of AF. The purpose of this study was to determine if AVP is directly involved in the regulation of PV electrophysiological properties and calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis as well as the identification of the underlying mechanisms.
