Mechanisms of cardiac ethanol toxicity and novel treatment options
2019, Pharmacology and TherapeuticsCitation Excerpt :While chronic effects of binge drinking episodes on QTc are marginal (i.e. 3–4 ms (Zhang et al., 2011)), acute intoxication leads to clinically relevant prolongation of QTc (13–23 ms (Rossinen, Sinisalo, Partanen, Nieminen, & Viitasalo, 1999)). However, action potential duration (APD) is reported to be even shorter upon ethanol (Carryl, Gallardo-Carpentier, & Carpentier, 1992; Williams, Mirro, & Bailey, 1980). Underlying this might be reduced sodium (INa) and calcium (ICa) currents, which have been reported following ethanol infusion over 5 days in rabbit atria (Laszlo et al., 2009).
