Elucidating sodium channel NaV1.5 clustering in cardiac myocytes using super-resolution techniques.
The cardiac voltage-gated sodium channel, NaV1.5, is responsible for conducting the inward sodium current (INa), which leads to the fast depolarization of the cardiac cell membrane. Mutations in SCN5A, the gene encoding NaV1.5, that lead to alterations in INa are linked to many cardiac phenotypes including congenital long QT syndrome type 3, Brugada syndrome, atrial fibrillation, conduction slo...
متن کاملTuning up mitochondria for angiogenesis
W ithout voltage-gated sodium channels, heart muscle cells can’t keep a beat. Lowe et al. show how these cells, known as cardiomyocytes, direct channels to the right domain of their plasma membrane. Opening Nav1.5 sodium channels allows an inrush of sodium ions that depolarizes a cardiomyocyte. Patients who carry a faulty version of the channel are at risk for potentially lethal heart arrhythmi...
متن کاملCardiac sodium channel Nav1.5 and its associated proteins.
The main cardiac voltage-gated Na+ channel, Nav1.5, plays a key role in generation of the cardiac action potential (cardiac excitability) and propagation of the electrical impulse in the heart (cardiac conduction). During the past decade, numerous mutations in SCN5A, the gene, encoding Nav1.5, were found in patients with different pathologic cardiac phenotypes such as the congenital long QT syn...
متن کاملLateral Membrane-Specific MAGUK CASK Down-Regulates NaV1.5 Channel in Cardiac Myocytes.
RATIONALE Mechanisms underlying membrane protein localization are crucial in the proper function of cardiac myocytes. The main cardiac sodium channel, NaV1.5, carries the sodium current (INa) that provides a rapid depolarizing current during the upstroke of the action potential. Although enriched in the intercalated disc, NaV1.5 is present in different membrane domains in myocytes and interacts...
متن کاملSodium channel traffic on the cardiac microtubule highway.
Voltage-gated sodium channels are responsible for excitable cell action potential initiation. In cardiomyocytes, SCN5A-encoded Nav1.5 is the primary voltage-gated sodium channel a subunit, although other Nav channel a subunits may secondarily modulate specific INa properties. In addition to the pore-forming Nav1.5 a subunits, four accessory Nav b subunits (b1–b4) are expressed in the human hear...
