Genetic background dominates the susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias in a murine model of β-adrenergic stimulation

Abstract In cardiovascular research, several mouse strains with differing genetic backgrounds are used to investigate mechanisms leading to and sustaining ventricular arrhythmias. The genetic background has been shown to affect the studied phenotype in other research fields. Surprisingly little is k...
