Potassium channel subunits encoded by the KCNE gene family: physiology and pathophysiology of the MinK-related peptides (MiRPs). [PDF]
, 2001 Voltage-gated potassium channels provide tightly Controlled, ion-specific pathways across membranes and are key to the normal function of nerves muscles. They arise from the assembly of four pore-forming proteins called alpha-subunits.

Molecular and clinical determinants of drug-induced long QT syndrome: an iatrogenic channelopathy. [PDF]
, 2004 More than 70 drugs present on the Swiss market can cause drug-induced long QT syndrome (LQTS), which is associated with torsades de pointes (TdP) arrhythmias, potentially leading to sudden cardiac death. Basic and clinical investigations performed during

Long QT syndrome - causes and risk factors
Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2018 Sudden cardiac death is a major public health challenge, which can be caused by genetic or acquired structural or electrophysiological abnormalities. These abnormalities include channelopathies such as long QT, short QT and Brugada syndromes.

Mutations and SNPs of human cardiac sodium channel alpha subunit gene (SCN5A) in Japanese patients with Brugada syndrome [PDF]
, 2007 Background: Brugada syndrome is an inherited arrhythmogenic disease characterized by right bundle branch block pattern and ST segment elevation, leading to the change of V1 to V3 on electrocardiogram, and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death ...

Torsades de pointes during laparoscopic adrenalectomy of a pheochromocytoma: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2011 Introduction Torsades de pointes is a rare but potentially lethal arrhythmia. The amount of literature available on Torsades de pointes occurring in patients with pheochromocytoma is limited, and we found no literature describing this dysrhythmia in a ...
