In recent years the term CHANNELOPATHY has been adopted to describe neurological disorders caused by mutations in different ion channel genes. Myopathic channelopathies include two main groups: nondystrophic myotonias and periodic paralyses. This article reviews the clinical features, diagnostic approach, molecular causes, and management of patients ...

Skeletal muscle channelopathies are rare heterogeneous diseases with marked genotypic and phenotypic variability. Despite advances in understanding of the molecular pathology of these disorders, the diverse phenotypic manifestations remain a challenge in diagnosis and therapeutics.

Intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) is highly regulated in eukaryotic cells. The free [Ca2+]i is approximately four orders of magnitude less than that in the extracellular environment. It is, therefore, an electrochemical gradient favoring Ca2+ entry, and transient cellular activation increasing Ca2+ permeability will lead to a transient increase in [Ca2 ...

Inherited ion channel mutations can affect the entire nervous system. Many cause paroxysmal disturbances of brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerve or skeletal muscle function, with normal neurological development and function in between attacks. To fully understand how mutations of ion channel genes cause disease, we need to know the normal location and

Mutations in the CACNA1A gene that encodes the pore-forming alpha1 subunit of human voltage-gated CaV2.1 (P/Q-type) Ca2+ channels cause several autosomal-dominant neurologic disorders, including familial hemiplegic migraine type 1 (FHM1), episodic ataxia type 2, and spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6).

HCN channels are the molecular subunits of native funny (f-) channels of cardiac pacemaker cells and neurons. Although funny channels were first functionally described in cardiac cells in the late 1970s, cloning of HCN channels, of which four subunits are known today (HCN1-4), had to wait some 20 years to be accomplished, which delayed the ...

Recently, a variety of ion channel defects have been identified as the biological basis of certain familial epilepsies, paroxysmal movement disorders, myopathies and some degenerative disorders of central nervous system. Ion channel defects were mainly caused by genetic and autoimmune mechanisms.

Pediatric neuromuscular channelopathies
Pediatric skeletal muscle channelopathies include a spectrum of conditions including nondystrophic myotonias and periodic paralyses. They are rare inherited conditions that can cause significant morbidity. They are characterized by episodic stiffness and weakness. While there is significant phenotypic variability, there are distinct diagnostic features.Vinojini, Vivekanandam +2 more
