Andersen's syndrome: A distinct periodic paralysis [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, 1997
AbstractA previous study of 4 patients defined Andersen's syndrome (AS) as a triad of potassium‐sensitive periodic paralysis, ventricular dysrhythmias, and dysmorphic features. AS appears to be distinct in terms of its genetic defect from the α‐subunit of skeletal muscle sodium channel and the cardiac potassium channel responsible for most long QT ...

Andersen-Tawil syndrome: Overlapping clinical features with Noonan syndrome?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Genetics, 2022
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) and Noonan syndrome (NS) are both autosomal dominantly inherited disorders that share anomalies in the same body systems, i.e. cardiovascular system, skeleton, growth, and face morphology. Here we report a patient meeting clinical diagnostic criteria for NS in whom no variant in one of the genes known to cause NS was found

Inwardly Rectifying Potassium Channel Kir2.1 and its “Kir-ious” Regulation by Protein Trafficking and Roles in Development and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Potassium (K+) homeostasis is tightly regulated for optimal cell and organismal health. Failure to control potassium balance results in disease, including cardiac arrythmias and developmental disorders.

Markedly reduced ventricular arrhythmia during the peripartum period in a pregnant woman with Andersen-Tawil syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2012
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS), also known as long QT syndrome type 7, is a rare autosomal dominant disease caused by a KCNJ2 mutation. The characteristic triad of ATS is periodic paralysis, dysmorphic features, and ventricular arrhythmia.

Child Neurology: Andersen-Tawil syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesNeurology, 2015
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is one of the periodic paralyses. This autosomal dominant disorder was initially named after Andersen, who in 1971 reported the case of a young boy presenting with intermittent muscle weakness, ventricular arrhythmias, and other developmental abnormalities.
