Description Our study proved that ethanol affected rat atrial inward rectifier currents, IK1 and IK(Ach), within clinically relevant range of concentrations. IK(Ach) was more sensitive and its changes may play a significant role in changes of the atrial electrophysiology observed after the alcohol consumption.
