Key result
Pacing induced delayed afterdepolarizations in 63% of RyR2(R4496C+/-) myocytes versus 0% in wild-type (P=0.001), and K201 failed to prevent these arrhythmias in vivo or in vitro.
Population
Ventricular myocytes isolated from wild-type and knock-in mice harboring the R4496C mutation (RyR2)
Comparison
In vitro application of isoproterenol… vs Wild-type (WT) mice/myocytes

Supports triggered activity via DADs as CPVT mechanism in RyR2-R4496C model; challenges FKBP12.6 hypothesis and K201 efficacy.
Absolute Event Rate: 63% vs 0%
p-value: p=0.001
Triggered activity is the likely arrhythmogenic mechanism of CPVT, and K201 does not prevent arrhythmias, suggesting the R4496C mutation does not interfere with the RyR2/FKBP12.6 complex.
Liu et al. (2006) studied Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia. K201 vs. Wild-type (WT) mice and myocytes was evaluated on Pacing-induced delayed afterdepolarizations (DADs) (p=0.001). Pacing induced delayed afterdepolarizations in 63% of RyR2(R4496C+/-) myocytes versus 0% in wild-type (P=0.001), and K201 failed to prevent these arrhythmias in vivo or in vitro.
