Fatty acid analogue N-arachidonoyl taurine restores function of IKs channels with diverse long QT mutations
About 300 loss-of-function mutations in the IKs channel have been identified in patients with Long QT syndrome and cardiac arrhythmia. How specific mutations cause arrhythmia is largely unknown and there are no approved IKs channel activators for treatment of these arrhythmias. We find that several...
