Gene Therapy for Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia by Inhibition of Ca 2+ /Calmodulin-Dependent Kinase II
3 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
Background: Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), an inherited cardiac arrhythmia characterized by adrenergically triggered arrhythmias, is inadequately treated by current standard of care. Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), an adrenergically activated kinase that contributes to arrhythmogenesis in heart disease models, is a candidate therapeutic target in CPVT....
