Using induced pluripotent stem cell technology, cardiac ventricular myocytes were generated using cells taken from Patient X and also from a donor who displayed normal cardiac function. Figure 1.1 displays the action potentials from myocytes expressing either the wild type or the mutant form of channel D. Q 1c. Wild-type channel D 100ms 20mV Mutant channel D 100ms 20mV Figure 1.1. Action potentials recorded from cardiac myocytes expressing either wild type or the mutant form of Channel D.
