Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Arrhythmia syndromes associated with KCNJ2 mutations have been described clinically; however, little is known of the underlying arrhythmia mechanism. We create the first patient inspired KCNJ2 transgenic mouse and study effects of this mutation on cardiac function, IK1, and Ca2+ handling, to determine the underlying cellular arrhythmic pathogenesis. METHODS: A cardiac-specific KCNJ2-R67Q mouse was...
