The KCNH2 genetic polymorphism (1956, C>T) is a novel biomarker that is associated with CCB and α,β-ADR blocker response in EH patients in China.
KCNH2 (hERG) potassium channels have an integral role in regulating the excitability of smooth muscle cells. Some pathways driven by angiotensin II, nitric oxide and adrenergic receptors blocker are involved in modulating the properties of KCNH2 potassium channels. And these pathways are closely rel...
