Integrated Genomic Approaches to Elucidate the Genetic Basis of Brugada Syndrome in Taiwanese Patients [PDF]
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a rare cardiac arrhythmia with a complex and largely unexplained genetic basis. In this study, we analysed genomic data from 214 Taiwanese BrS cases and 1316 controls to uncover susceptibility loci using genome-wide association ...

SCN10A gene polymorphism is associated with pain sensitivity and postoperative analgesic effects in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopy [PDF]
Background Postoperative pain intensity is influenced by various factors, including genetic variations. The SCN10A gene encodes the Nav1.8 sodium channel protein, which is crucial for pain signal transmission in peripheral sensory neurons.

Phenotypes in Brugada syndrome with different genotypes triggered by fever or inflammation using gene-edited iPSCs [PDF]
Background Fever or inflammation state may enhance the Brugada syndrome (BrS) phenotype in some but not all patients. However, the underlying mechanism in human cardiomyocytes has not yet been clarified. Methods Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)

Identification and validation of key target genes of penning formula for treating rat chronic endometritis model [PDF]
This study analyzed transcriptome sequencing data from rat samples, categorized into control (normal), model (chronic endometritis, CE), and test (treated with Penning Formula, PNF) groups, to identify key target genes of PNF in CE treatment and ...

Characterization of novel arrhythmogenic patterns arising secondary to heterogeneous expression and activation of Nav1.8 [PDF]
BackgroundPrevious studies suggested that SCN10A/Nav1.8 may influence cardiac electrophysiology and the susceptibility to cardiac arrhythmias. Notably, the expression of SCN10A is not uniform, showing variable expression in each cardiac chamber.

Genetic insights into cardiac conduction disorders from genome-wide association studies [PDF]
Background Substantial data support a heritable basis for cardiac conduction disorders (CCDs), but the genetic determinants and molecular mechanisms of these arrhythmias are poorly understood, therefore, we sought to identify genetic loci associated with

Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels: A Therapeutic Target in Ischemic Heart Disease [PDF]
Myocardial infarction (MI)-related arrhythmias are an essential risk factor in sudden cardiac death. Aberrant cardiac the cardiac voltage-gated sodium channel (Nav1.5) is important in the development of ventricular arrhythmias after an MI.

Nav1.8 and Chronic Pain: From Laboratory Animals to Clinical Patients [PDF]
As a subtype of voltage-gated sodium channel and predominantly expressed in the sensory neurons located in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG), the Nav1.8 channel encoded by the SCN10A gene is found to have different variants in patients suffering chronic ...
