© The Author(s) 2018. Aims Heart failure (HF) produces left atrial (LA)-selective fibrosis and promotes atrial fibrillation. HF also causes adrenergic activation, which contributes to remodelling via a variety of signalling molecules, including the exchange protein activated by cAMP (Epac). Here, we...
