Mutation Analysis Ion Channel Genes Ventricular Fibrillation Survivors with Coronary Artery Disease

Abstract: The prevalence of selected, rare coding variants in five long QT genes was significantly higher in cases versus controls, confirming a mechanistic role for these genes among a subgroup of patients with coronary disease and VF.

“…Fifteen anonymised DNA samples were selected for technical assay evaluation. Eleven (group I) had undergone mutation scanning of five Long QT syndrome (LQT) associated genes (See Table 1) using denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (dHPLC) [21] coupled with Sanger DNA sequence analysis to confirm putative variants. Four (group II) underwent exon PCR amplification and direct Sanger DNA sequence analysis of the full coding sequence of the same five genes.…”

“…VF occurs in 10% of cases within the first hours following the symptoms of an AMI (2,3). In addition to established risk factors for VF, a significant genetic component may be detected using extensive observational population studies (4)(5)(6)(7). In primary electrical heart diseases, including Long QT syndrome (LQTS), Short QT syndrome and Brugada syndrome, genes encoding ion channels are mutated.…”

“…[ 19 , 23 , 27 ] Four articles pertained to survivors of SCD who were successfully resuscitated. [ 23 , 25 , 27 , 35 ] The common ion channel-related genes that were assessed in the studies included SCN5A, SCN10A, KCNQ1, KCNH2, KCNE1, and RYR2. The NOS scores of the included studies ranged from 6 to 8.…”
