In order to determine the cellular and ionic changes caused by chronic atrial tachycardia, we studied right atrial myocytes from dogs subjected to 1, 7, or 42 days of atrial pacing at 400\/min and compared them with myocytes from sham-operated dogs (pacemaker inserted but not activated). Rapid pacing led to progressive increases in the duration of AF induced by bursts of 10-Hz stimuli (from 3\u00b12 seconds in sham-operated dogs to 3060\u00b1707 seconds in dogs after 42 days of pacing,\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;.001) and reduced atrial refractoriness and adaptation to rate of the atrial refractory period.

In keeping with in vivo changes in refractoriness, action potential duration (APD) and APD adaptation to rate were decreased by rapid pacing. The response of the action potential and ionic currents flowing during the action potential (as exposed by action-potential voltage clamp) to nifedipine in normal canine cells and in cells from rapidly paced dogs suggested that the APD changes in paced dogs were largely due to reductions in\n                    <jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>Ca<\/jats:sub>\n                    .
