Capsaicin alters human Na <sub>V</sub> 1.5 mechanosensitivity

2021-07-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> SCN5A -encoded Na V 1.5 is a voltage-gated Na + channel expressed in cardiac myocytes and human gastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Na V 1.5 contributes to electrical excitability in the heart and slow waves in the gut. Na V 1.5 is also mechanosensitive, and mechanical force modulates several modes of Na V 1.5’s voltage-dependent function. Na V 1.5 mutations in patients with...
