Circulating MicroRNAs as Potential Biomarkers of Atrial Fibrillation

Circulating MicroRNAs as Potential Biomarkers of Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common supraventricular arrhythmia in the population. MicroRNAs (small endogenous noncoding RNAs) are attractive candidates as biomarkers for AF, especially considering that miRNAs are stable and are detected within easily accessible biofluids such as blood. In t...
