Balance Between Rapid Delayed Rectifier K(+) Current and Late Na(+) Current on Ventricular Repolarization: An Effective Antiarrhythmic Target?

BACKGROUND: Rapid delayed rectifier K(+) current (I(Kr)) and late Na(+) current (I(NaL)) significantly shape the cardiac action potential (AP). Changes in their magnitudes can cause either long or short QT syndromes (LQT, SQT) associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac deat...
