Electrical dysfunctions in human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes from a patient with an arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
Summary
Cardiomyocytes derived from the ARVC patient with a DSG2 mutation displayed multiple ion channel dysfunctions and abnormal cellular electrophysiology as well as enhanced sensitivity to adrenergic stimulation. These may underlie the arrhythmogenesis in ARVC patients.
