Fhf2 gene deletion causes temperature-sensitive cardiac conduction failure
Fever is a defence mechanism against infection, but it may also cause abnormal heart rhythm viaunknown mechanism. Here the authors identify FHF2 protein as a key regulator of myocardial excitability that protects the heart against conduction failure in response to an increase in body temperature.
