Abstract: Abstract: Nowadays， there is an ever-increasing appreciation of the gender-related differences in the modulation of cardiac arrhythmias. A growing body of clinical and experimental investigations on sex-dimorphism in susceptibility to arrhythmias has demonstrated that sex hormones play important roles on the regulation and progression of gender-specific difference in cardiac physiology and pathophysiology. In the past several decades， much progress has been made in understanding the role of estrogen on cardiac arrhythmias， leading to the development of effective therapies for men and women patients in the future. The aim of this review is to focus on the current basic and clinical data regarding possible molecular mechanisms of estrogen on cardiac arrhythmias.
