Abstract excerpt

Recent work has revealed that familial hyperkalemic periodic paralysis, paramyotonia congenita and other non-dystrophic myotonias result from point mutations in the gene encoding the alpha-subunit of the adult human skeletal muscle sodium channel (SCN4A). Sodium channel myotonias are a diverse group of skeletal muscle disorders that share a common pathophysiological mechanism: all are caused by impaired rapid...
