Table 1.

Scn5a+/ΔKPQ mice show a time-of-day prolongation in their QTc interval that is flipped after light phase-restricted feeding

Genotype Ad Libitum QTc Light Ad Libitum QTc Dark tRF QTc Light tRF QT Dark n
WT 41.3 ± 1.4 42.0 ± 0.4 44.7 ± 0.8 45.5 ± 0.9 6
Scn5a+/ΔKPQ 48.3 ± 1.1* 43.1 ± 1.2 50.0 ± 1.3* 55.9 ± 1.0* 7

Values are means ± SE; n, number of mice. Shown are the average heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) intervals calculated using the correction formula: QTc = QT/(RR100)0.5 [see Mitchell et al. (17)]. The QTc intervals were calculated from ECG traces recorded during the hours that corresponded to Zeitgeber time (ZT) =5 (light) and ZT =17 (dark) in ad libitum-fed or tRF conditions.
