Pathogenic mechanism and gene correction for LQTS-causing double mutations in KCNQ1 using a pluripotent stem cell model

Aims: To establish a KCNQ1 mutant-specific induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) model of a Chinese inherited long QT syndrome (LQTS) patient and to explore the pathogenesis of KCNQ1 mutations. Methods and results: (1) Two patient-specific iPSC lines from the proband were obtained. (2) The experiment...
