Abstract excerpt
The sarcoplasmatic reticulum (SR) cardiac ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel RyR2 is an essential regulator of cardiac excitation-contraction coupling and intracellular calcium homeostasis. Mutations of the RYR2 are the cause of rare, potentially lethal inherited arrhythmia disorders. Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) was first described more than 20 years ago and is the most...
