Abstract excerpt
Some genetic studies have shown a linkage between malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (MHS) and chromosome 19q or the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RYR1) gene. Some types of MHS seem to be caused by an abnormality of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR). We analyzed the linkage of RYR1 gene polymorphisms in Japanese MHS families and investigated the correlation between genetic evidence of RYR1 gene...
