Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed genetic analysis using next generation sequencing for patients with inherited arrhythmia.We performed electrophysiological study for detected gene mutations in ion channel genes using patch clamp methods. We evaluated mutations in KCNH2 gene using zebrafish embryo. Knockdown or CRISPR-mediated deletions of the human LMNA ortholog, lmna in zebrafish recapitulated the electrophysiological phenotypes of human early-onset bradycardia.
