Sodium Channel Myotonia Due to Novel Mutations in Domain I of Nav1.4
Sodium channel myotonia is a form of muscle channelopathy due to mutations that affect the Nav1.4 channel. We describe seven families with a series of symptoms ranging from asymptomatic to clearly myotonic signs that have in common two novel mutations, p.

Congenital long QT syndrome: A challenging diagnosis by fetal echocardiography
The diagnosis of long QT syndrome (LQTS) in utero presents many challenges for clinicians, and there is high risk for intrauterine fetal demise as life-threatening arrhythmias develop secondary to QT prolongation.

Kv3.1 channelopathy: a novel loss-of-function variant and the mechanistic basis of its clinical phenotypes [PDF]
BACKGROUND: KCNC1 encodes Kv3.1, a subunit of the Kv3 voltage-gated potassium channels. It is predominantly expressed in inhibitory GABAergic interneurons and cerebellar neurons.

Structural Heart Alterations in Brugada Syndrome: Is it Really a Channelopathy? A Systematic Review [PDF]
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is classified as an inherited cardiac channelopathy attributed to dysfunctional ion channels and/or associated proteins in cardiomyocytes rather than to structural heart alterations.
