Abstract excerpt
Phospholamban (PLN) is the natural inhibitor of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATP-ase (SERCA2a). Heterozygous PLN p.Arg14del mutation is associated with an arrhythmogenic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), whose pathogenesis has been attributed to SERCA2a "superinhibition". AIM: To test in cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) derived from a PLN p.Arg14del carrier whether (1) Ca2+ dynamics and protein localization were...
