Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to analyze the genetic and functional role of a novel RYR1 variant c.251 C > T (p.Thr84Met) identified in a patient with muscle weakness demonstrating MH susceptibility. METHODS: DNA testing of family members was conducted for assessment of pathogenicity of the genetic variant. For functional analysis, Ca2+ measurement using patient-derived myotubes and p.Thr84Met...
