Dual Dysfunction of Kir2.1 Underlies Conduction and Excitation-Contraction Coupling Defects Promoting Arrhythmias in a Mouse Model of Andersen-Tawil Syndrome Type 1
2021-06-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Andersen-Tawil Syndrome (ATS) is associated with life threatening arrhythmias of unknown mechanism. We report on a mouse model carrying the trafficking-deficient mutant Kir2.1 Δ314-315 . The mouse recapitulates the electrophysiological phenotype of type 1 (ATS1), with slower conduction velocities in response to flecainide, QT prolongation exacerbated by isoproterenol, and increased vulnerabilit...
