Abstract: BACKGROUND KCNH2 encodes the human ether-à-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel, which passes the rapid delayed rectifier potassium current, IKr. Loss-of-function variants in KCNH2 cause long QT syndrome type 2 (LQTS2) which is associated with a… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Epilepsia"

DOI: 10.1111/epi.18642

Abstract: OBJECTIVE Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of premature mortality in epilepsy. Genetic studies have identified that loss-of-function (LOF) KCNH2 variants are enriched in SUDEP patients, suggesting that they may act… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms23137389

Abstract: The electrocardiogram (ECG) empowered clinician scientists to measure the electrical activity of the heart noninvasively to identify arrhythmias and heart disease. Shortly after the standardization of the 12-lead ECG for the diagnosis of heart disease,… read more here.
