New insight into models of cardiac caveolae and arrhythmia

Recent studies suggest that cardiomyocyte membrane microdomains, caveolae and transverse tubules, play a key role in cardiac arrhythmia. Mutation of caveolin-encoding genes CAV3, co-expressed with genes of caveolae ion channels, leads to a late persistent sodium currents and delayed repolarization s...
