Whole genome sequencing in paediatric channelopathy and cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundPrecision medicine in paediatric cardiac channelopathy and cardiomyopathy has a rapid advancement over the past years. Compared to conventional gene panel and exome-based testing, whole genome sequencing (WGS) offers additional coverage at the ...

Acquired Piezo2 Channelopathy is One Principal Gateway to Pathophysiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
The Piezo2 transmembrane proteins were identified by Ardem Patapoutian and his team. They also found that Piezo2 is the principal mechanosensory ion channel responsible for proprioception.

Gardos channelopathy: functional analysis of a novel KCNN4 variant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We show that the novel KCNN4 variant p.S314P is a gain-of-function mutation but is less severe than the previously reported p.R352H variant. The clinical heterogeneity, blurred symptoms, and absence of specific diagnostic markers make the diagnosis of ...

STIM1/ORAI1 Loss-of-Function and Gain-of-Function Mutations Inversely Impact on SOCE and Calcium Homeostasis and Cause Multi-Systemic Mirror Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a ubiquitous and essential mechanism regulating Ca2+ homeostasis in all tissues, and controls a wide range of cellular functions including keratinocyte differentiation, osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis, T cell

Concealed Substrates in Brugada Syndrome: Isolated Channelopathy or Associated Cardiomyopathy?

open access: yes, 2022
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited autosomal dominant genetic disorder responsible for sudden cardiac death from malignant ventricular arrhythmia. The term “channelopathy” is nowadays used to classify BrS as a purely electrical disease ...

Mechanistic ion channel interactions in red cells of patients with Gărdos channelopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In patients with Gárdos channelopathy (p.R352H), an increased concentration of intracellular Ca21 was previously reported. This is a surprising finding because the Gárdos channel (KCa3.1) is a K1 channel.

ClC-1 Chloride Channel: Inputs on the Structure–Function Relationship of Myotonia Congenita-Causing Mutations

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Myotonia congenita is a hereditary muscle disease mainly characterized by muscle hyperexcitability, which leads to a sustained burst of discharges that correlates with the magnitude and duration of involuntary aftercontractions, muscle stiffness, and ...
