Female predominance and transmission distortion in the long-QT syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Congenital long-QT syndrome is a disorder resulting in ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. The most common forms of the long-QT syndrome, types 1 and 2, are caused by mutations in the potassium-channel genes KCNQ1 and KCNH2 ...

Long QT in stunned myocardium: unrecognised cause of acquired long QT syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Medical Science, 2014
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a heart disorder characterized by a prolongation of the QT interval on ECG and a predisposition to ventricular tachyarrhythmias, which may lead to syncope, cardiac arrest or sudden cardiac death. This condition may be inherited

Reprogramming of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line (ZZUSAHi004-A) from a long QT syndrome patient with a heterozygous AKAP9 (c. 4021C > A) mutant

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2022
Long QT syndrome is one of the most common hereditary arrhythmias in clinic. Mutations in AKAP9 gene can lead to long QT syndrome type 11 (LQT11). In this study, a human induced pluripotent stem cell line ZZUSAHi004-A from a 3-year-old male patient with ...

QT Adaptation and Intrinsic QT Variability in Congenital Long QT Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Increased variability of QT interval (QTV) has been linked to arrhythmias in animal experiments and multiple clinical situations. Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS), a pure repolarization disease, may provide important information on the ...

Molecular basis of cardiac arrhythmias: genetics of natural variants and electrophysiological investigation of mutant proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Channelopathies are diseases caused by deranged functioning of ion channel subunits or the proteins that regulate them. Long QT and Brugada syndrome are included in this group.
