Andersen-Tawil Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare condition consisting of ventricular arrhythmias, periodic paralysis, and dysmorphic features. In 2001, mutations in KCNJ2, which encodes the α subunit of the potassium channel Kir2.1, were identified in patients ...

Efficacy of a K+ Channel Agonist, XEN1101, For Preserving Contractility in Mouse Models of Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
Pretreatment with an agonist of Kv7 potassium channels (XEN1101) protects the soleus muscle from a loss of force during a 2 mM K+ challenge, in a mouse model of hypokalemic periodic paralysis. ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Effective management remains lacking for recurrent episodes of acute weakness in hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HypoPP).

Genomic organization and chromosomal localization of the murine 2 P domain potassium channel gene Kcnk8: conservation of gene structure in 2 P domain potassium channels. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
A 2 P domain potassium channel expressed in eye, lung, and stomach, Kcnk8, has recently been identified. To initiate further biochemical and genetic studies of this channel, we assembled the murine Kcnk8 cDNA sequence, characterized the genomic structure

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Population‐Based Study Found Low Risk of Misdiagnosing Long QT Syndrome as Breath‐Holding Spells in Swedish Children

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim An electrocardiogram is commonly recommended in breath‐holding spell management, mainly to rule out long QT syndrome. This retrospective study investigated the risk of long QT syndrome being misdiagnosed as breath‐holding spells in a paediatric population in southern Sweden.
