Chloroquine Blocks a Mutant Kir2.1 Channel Responsible for Short QT Syndrome and Normalizes Repolarization Properties in silico

Short QT Syndrome (SQTS) is a novel clinical entity characterized by markedly rapid cardiac repolarization and lethal arrhythmias. A mutation in the Kir2.1 inward rectifier K(+) channel (D172N) causes one form of SQTS (SQT3). Pharmacologic block of Kir2.1 channels may hold promise as potential thera...
