A new mutation for Cantu's syndrome
Introduction: Cantu syndrome is one of the rare genetic syndromes. Formally, there are no diagnostic criteria for Cantu syndrome, but given the characteristic appearance and reproducible features in people with a mutation in the ABCC9 gene, there is a ...

Abcc9 is required for the transition to oxidative metabolism in the newborn heart
ABSTRACT The newborn heart adapts to postnatal life by shifting from a fetal glycolytic metabolism to a mitochondrial oxidative metabolism. Abcc9 , an ATP‐binding cassette family member, increases expression concomitant with this metabolic shift. Abcc9

Involvement of SUR2/Kir6.1 channel in the physiopathology of pulmonary arterial hypertension
AimsWe hypothesized that the ATP-sensitive K+ channels (KATP) regulatory subunit (ABCC9) contributes to PAH pathogenesis. ABCC9 gene encodes for two regulatory subunits of KATP channels: the SUR2A and SUR2B proteins.

Additional file 1: Fig. S1. The expression of ABCC9 is elevated in clinical BC samples and associated with poor survival rate. (A) The expression of ABCC9 was analyzed by qPCR in clinical BC tissues (n = 152) and adjacent non-tumor tissues (n = 152). (B)

Dramatic cardiomegaly arising from gain-of-function (GoF) mutations in the ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels genes, ABCC9 and KCNJ8, is a characteristic feature of Cantú syndrome (CS).

Cantú syndrome: A new case and evolution of clinical conditions during first 2‐year follow‐up
Cantú syndrome, or hypertrichotic osteochondrodysplasia, is a rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by congenital hypertrichosis, characteristic dysmorphisms, skeletal abnormalities and cardiomegaly. We report on a 7‐year‐old girl with congenital

Complex consequences of Cantu syndrome SUR2 variant R1154Q in genetically modified mice
Cantu syndrome (CS) is caused by gain-of-function (GOF) mutations in pore-forming (Kir6.1, KCNJ8) and accessory (SUR2, ABCC9) ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel subunits, the most common mutations being SUR2[R1154Q] and SUR2[R1154W], carried by ...

Implication of Potassium Channels in the Pathophysiology of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare and severe cardiopulmonary disease without curative treatments. PAH is a multifactorial disease that involves genetic predisposition, epigenetic factors, and environmental factors (drugs, toxins, viruses ...

ABCC9 mutations identified in human dilated cardiomyopathy disrupt catalytic KATP channel gating [PDF]
Stress tolerance of the heart requires high-fidelity metabolic sensing by ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels that adjust membrane potential-dependent functions to match cellular energetic demand. Scanning of genomic DNA from individuals with heart failure and rhythm disturbances due to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy identified two mutations ...
