Colchicine may modulate atrial myocyte Ca²⁺ handling; leaves open clinical translation for AF prevention.
Does colchicine modulate calcium homeostasis and electrical properties in HL-1 cells?
Colchicine modulates atrial electrical activity and calcium regulation in HL-1 cells, providing a potential cellular mechanism for its anti-atrial fibrillation effects.
