Identification of a novel Scn3b mutation in a Chinese Brugada syndrome pedigree: implications for Nav1.5 electrophysiological properties and intracellular distribution of Nav1.5 and Navβ3
BackgroundThe Scn3b gene encodes for Navβ3, a pivotal regulatory subunit of the fast sodium channel in cardiomyocytes. However, its mutation status in the Chinese population suffering from Brugada Syndrome (BrS) has not been characterized, and the contributory pathophysiological mechanisms to diseas...
