Elucidating arrhythmogenic mechanisms of long-QT syndrome CALM1-F142L mutation in patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes

Summary

The main functional derangement in CALM1-F142L was prolonged repolarization with altered rate-dependency and sensitivity to β-adrenergic stimulation. Impaired CDI of ICaL underlined the electrical abnormality, which was sensitive to ICaL blockade. High mutation penetrance was confirmed in the presence of the native genotype, implying strong dominance of effects. Published on behalf of the European Society of Cardiology.
