“…The slow voltage-dependent inactivation resembles the slow inactivation (C_type) found in potassium and sodium channels rather than the more rapid chain and ball mechanism (N_type) of these channels (Hoshi et al 1991;Featherstone et al 1996;Liu et al 1996;Kontis & Goldin, 1997). The characteristics of this type of inactivation have not yet been fully determined in any skeletal muscle preparation and particularly little information is available from human preparations which have recently attracted attention due to the discovery of L_type Ca¥ channelrelated diseases (Jurkat-Rott et al 1994;Ptacek et al 1994;Monnier et al 1997). A few studies describe voltagedependent activation and inactivation in human muscle cells (Rivet et al 1990(Rivet et al , 1992Garcia et al 1992;Sipos et al 1995;Lehmann-Horn et al 1995;Jurkat-Rott et al 1998) but no data are available on the dynamics of the transition to and the recovery from the inactive state(s).…”

“…Point mutations in CACNA1S or SCN4A, which encode the skeletal muscle voltage-gated calcium and sodium channels, associate with HypoPP. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] However, in most studies at least 20% of cases remain genetically undefined. 8,11,12 Sodium and calcium channels have homologous pore-forming ␣ subunits, each containing four domains containing six transmembrane segments.…”

“…HypoKPP exists in familial or non-familial form. Familial hypoKPP is inherited in an autosomal-dominant pattern and is predominantly caused by mutations in genes encoding for a skeletal muscle-specific voltage-gated Na ϩ channel Na v 1.4 (SCN4A) or the L-type Ca 2ϩ channel Ca v 1.1 (CACNA1S) (3,4). About 10% of cases of familial hypoKPP remain genetically undefined (5).…”
