Cardiac inward rectifier potassium current (IK1) plays a paramount role in repolarisation and stabilisation of the membrane potential in cardiomyocytes. Its downregulation contributes to arrhythmogenesis in heart failure and post-myocardial infarction. We have undertaken the molecular and functional characterisation of IK1 in the HL-1 cell line, which is derived from a …
