NaV1.5 knockout in iPSCs: a novel approach to study NaV1.5 variants in a human cardiomyocyte environment

Abstract Cardiomyocytes derived from patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC-CMs) successfully reproduce the mechanisms of several channelopathies. However, this approach involve cell reprogramming from somatic tissue biopsies or genomic editing in healthy iPSCs for every mutation foun...
