Channelopathies are a group of diseases caused by the dysfunction of ion channel subunits or their interacting proteins. These diseases can be inherited or acquired by other disorders, drugs, or toxins.

Channelopathies are a group of genetic, autoimmune, or inflammatory conditions that alter cardiomyocyte ion channel function in a manner that predisposes to bradyarrhythmias or tachyarrhythmias in the absence of a structural heart disorder.

Skeletal muscle channelopathies are a group of rare episodic genetic disorders comprising the periodic paralyses and the non-dystrophic myotonias. They may cause significant morbidity, limit vocational opportunities, be socially embarrassing, and …

A channelopathy is a defect in one or more of the microscopic channels in the walls of heart cells through which electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and calcium enter and leave the cells. It is this flow of electrolytes that is responsible for the normal electrical activity of the heart.

Evidence accumulated over recent years has shown that genetic neurological channelopathies can cause many different neurological diseases. Presentations relating to the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerve or muscle mean that channelopathies can impact on almost any area of neurological practice.

2020年7月10日 · A channelopathy is a disease that is caused by a problem with an ion channel in the body. There are ion channels that transport minerals such as calcium, sodium, chloride, potassium and other ions throughout the body.

A channelopathy is a disorder that occurs when a person's ion channels do not work properly. What are ion channels? An ion is a molecule in our body that helps conduct messages. For example a chloride ion or sodium ion.

2024年2月15日 · Cardiac channelopathies are a group of inherited heart disorders that affect the ion channels responsible for regulating the electrical signals in the heart. These disorders can lead to abnormal heart rhythms and potentially life-threatening complications.

Channelopathies are a group of genetic, autoimmune, or inflammatory conditions that alter cardiomyocyte ion channel function in a manner that predisposes to bradyarrhythmias or tachyarrhythmias in the absence of a structural heart disorder.

2021年11月4日 · With the advent of molecular autopsy, also known as postmortem genetic testing, research has begun to link sudden deaths to several genetic causes, including channelopathies that alter heart functions.1 Channelopathies, either genetic or acquired, include a wide array of diseases that result from malfunctioning ion channels and associated protei...
