Abstract excerpt
Development of cardiac arrhythmias in several degenerative cardiac disorders such as heart failure is precipitated by abnormalities in intracellular calcium regulation. Recently, the identification of mutations in proteins responsible for the control of intracellular calcium has been associated with an inherited arrhythmogenic syndrome called catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Here, we...
