Abstract

For arrhythmia triggers that are secondary to dysfunctional intracellular Ca2+ cycling, there are few if any specific agents that target exactly the Ca2+ handling machinery. However, in the literature to date, several candidates have been proposed. We review here these agents with the idea that in the future these agents or those derived thereof will prove invaluable in clinical application.
