KCNH2 KCNH2:c.2690A>C(p.Lys897Thr) Expressivity  Risk factor  Patients with an acute MI carrying the KCNH2-K897T polymorphism had an 8-fold greater risk of experiencing TdP compared with controls (95% confidence interval = 2-40)  The common K897T polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of TdP developing in the subacute phase of MImore more
GCLM GCLM:c.588C>T Expressivity  Risk factor  CT and T genotypes: 31.5% in MI group versus 19.2% in control group; p<0.001  The 588T polymorphism of the GCLM gene may suppress GCLM gene induction in response to oxidants and that it is a genetic risk factor for MImore more
