Abstract
⺠Ang II induces early afterdepolarizations (EADs) and triggered activities in rabbit myocytes. ⺠The NADPH oxidase-ROS-calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII) pathway is involved. ⺠The Ang II-induced EADs are caused by the activation of both ICa,L and late INa mediated by CaMKII. ⺠These results support a link between renin-angiotensin system and cardiac arrhythmias.
