A leaky voltage sensor domain of cardiac sodium channels causes arrhythmias associated with dilated cardiomyopathy

Abstract: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a structural heart disease that causes dilatation of cardiac chambers and impairs cardiac contractility. The SCN5A gene encodes Nav1.5, the predominant cardiac sodium channel alpha subunit. SCN5A mutations have been identified in patients with arrhythmic disorders associated with DCM. The characterization of Nav1.5 mutations located in the voltage sensor domain (VSD) and associated with DCM revealed divergent biophysical defects that do not fully explain the pathologies observed… Show more

“…These, in turn, lead to abnormal contraction and relaxation or dysregulated ion transportation across cell membranes. As a structural heart disease, DCM causes the dilatation of the heart ventricle and the damage of systolic function, leading to heart failure as the final stage [ 22 ]. Despite some progress in the treatment and diagnosis, the prognosis of DCM patients remains poor at the current stage.…”

“…Genes such as LGALS3, FKBP5, and SCN5A are essential in determining not only the severity of heart disease, but also the prevalence of heart disease 6,24,25 . SCN5A is key in encoding for sodium, specifically for the cardiac sodium channel 26 . The SCN5A gene specifically instigates and transmits action potentials, this correlates to deciding the cardiac impulses and conduction 27 .…”

“…Mutations in non-sarcomeric cardiomyopathy genes, such those involved with ion channels, metabolic function, and growth pathways, are outside the scope of this review, but these too have been profitably studied in iPSC systems (Moretti et al 2010;Cashman et al 2016;Hinson et al 2016;Joanne et al 2016;Josowitz et al 2016;Judge et al 2017;Lee et al 2017;Liu et al 2017;Lu et al 2017;Ben Jehuda et al 2018;Hallas et al 2018;Moreau et al 2018;Zhan et al 2018;Li et al 2018b).…”
