Selectivity filter mutation in Na <sub>V</sub> 1.5 promotes ventricular tachycardia
2025-05-24
Abstract excerpt
Loss-of-Function (LoF) mutations in the SCN5A gene, which encodes for the predominant cardiac Na V isoform, Na V 1.5 result in either deficiency in the channel expression or function. Impaired Na V 1.5 expression and function underlie reduced peak Na + current (I Na ) and result in ventricular conduction velocity slowing, predisposing the heart to conduction block and ventricular arrhythmias clinically assoc...
