Abstract excerpt
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) remains a challenging neurosurgical disease. The ryanodine receptor type 1 Ca2+ channel (RyR1) plays a crucial role in vasoconstriction and hemostasis. Mutations of the encoding gene, RYR1, are known to cause susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia (MH). Recently, a RYR1 mutation was found to be associated with abnormal bleeding times. Therefore, an assessment of the RYR1 gene might...
