Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION/AIMS: Effective management remains lacking for recurrent episodes of acute weakness in hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HypoPP). We assessed the efficacy of a second-generation potassium channel agonist, XEN1101, to prevent and abort the low-K+ induced loss of force in mouse models of HypoPP. METHODS: An ex vivo contractility assay was used to interrogate the efficacy of XEN1101 for preserving...
