Cardiac Safety Implications of hNav1.5 Blockade and a Framework for Pre-Clinical Evaluation
The human cardiac sodium channel (hNav1.5, encoded by the SCN5A gene) is critical for action potential generation and propagation in the heart. Drug-induced sodium channel inhibition decreases the rate of cardiomyocyte depolarization and consequently conduction velocity and can have serious implicat...
