Effects of urate-lowering agents on arrhythmia vulnerability in post-infarcted rat hearts
Hyperuricemia has been shown to be associated with ventricular arrhythmias. However, the mechanisms remained unknown. We assessed whether different urate-lowering agents can attenuate arrhythmias through lowering urate itself or inhibiting xanthenes oxidize (XO) activity in infarcted rats. Male Wist...
