Table 1.

Summary of the findings from published BrS iPSC-CM models. Table represents an overview of the identified gene variants, patient diagnosis, electrophysiological characterization methods used and obtained results. Data shown indicate the most important findings from investigated BrS iPSC-CMs models in comparison to control iPSC-CMs for action potential (AP) (APA—AP amplitude; APD—AP duration, dV/dT—upstroke velocity), sodium current (INa) (current density, voltage dependence of activation/inactivation, recovery from inactivation), late sodium current (INaL) (current density), calcium current (ICaL) (current density, activation/inactivation, recovery), potassium currents: Ito, IKs and IKr (current density), calcium transients (CT) (CTD—CT duration, amplitude, rise rate, decay, presence of early afterdepolarization (EAD)/ delayed afterdepolarization (DAD)/arrhythmias) and field potential duration (FPD) characteristics. Legend: + performed analysis; − not performed analysis; ↑ significant increase/positive shift in voltage dependance; ↓ significant decrease/negative shift in voltage dependance; = no difference in comparison to control iPSC-CMs. BrS—Brugada syndrome; LQTS3/BrS—mixed Brugada syndrome and long-QT syndrome type 3 phenotype; Amp. —amplitude.
