Abstract excerpt
In LQT3 patients, SCN5A mutations induce ultraslow inactivation of a small fraction of the hNav1.5 current, i.e. persistent Na+ current (IpNa). We explored the time course of effects of such a change on the intracellular ionic homeostasis in a model of guinea-pig cardiac ventricular cell [Pasek,...
