    ..We hypothesized that during the VP, the Na conductance at the stimulus site is graded and that NaLOF would favor reentry specifically by flattening this gradient, which would destabilize antegrade front formation...

    ..An antiarrhythmic drug with high affinity for drug-channel complex formation elicits a higher level of blockade per time unit. Under this light, we hypothesize that even the modern, fast unbinding drugs are not necessarily safe...

    ..The late component of Na(+) current was increased in the DeltaK1500 mutant channel. These changes can account for the complex phenotype in this kindred and point to an important role of the III/IV linker in channel activation...
