Generation of a Triadin KnockOut Syndrome Zebrafish Model.

Different forms of sudden cardiac death have been described, including a recently identified form of genetic arrhythmogenic disorder, named "Triadin KnockOut Syndrome" (TKOS). TKOS is associated with recessive mutations in the gene, encoding for TRIADIN, but the pathogenic mechanism underlying the malignant phenotype has yet to be completely defined. Moreover, patients with TKOS are often refractory to conventional treatment, substantiating the need to identify new therapeutic strategies in order to prevent or treat cardiac events.
