Newest firstSeveral essential physiological systems express voltage-gated potassium channels within the KV7 family (comprising KV7.1-7.5), sometimes also co-assembled with auxiliary subunits in the KCNE family (comprising KCNE1-5). An ongoing challenge to KV7 drug development is creating subtype-selective compounds to limit adverse effects. Prior work has shown that the antiepileptic cannabidiol (CBD), a pan-KV7 modulator, in…
Open article record in new tab ↗Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) is a large group of structurally diverse designer drugs (analogues of controlled substances) associated with intense and sometimes fatal intoxication. Cardiac symptoms including tachycardia and arrhythmia are common consequences of SCRA consumption. However, little is known about the mechanisms through which SCRAs may perturb cardiac rhythm. Here we used electrophysi…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Genotype-positive patients who suffer from the cardiac channelopathy Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) may display a spectrum of clinical phenotypes, with often unknown causes. Therefore, there is a need to identify factors influencing disease severity to move towards an individualized clinical management of LQTS. One possible factor influencing the disease phenotype is the endocannabinoid system, which has emerg…
