Overview

It is understood that Andersen-Tawil syndrome is the result of mutation in KCNJ2 gene which encodes for Kir2.1 inward rectifier potassium channel that involves in cardiac repolarization phase. The movement of potassium ions through these channels is critical for maintaining the normal functions of skeletal muscles which are used for movement and cardiac muscle. Andersen-Tawil syndrome is a rare syndrome transmitted in autosomal dominant pattern.

Pathophysiology

Pathogenesis

Genetics

  • Andersen-Tawil syndrome is transmitted in autosomal dominant pattern.
  • Genes involved in the pathogenesis of Andersen-Tawil syndrome include:[8][9][10][11]
    • KCNJ2 gene in 60% of the cases Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) 1 type
    • Unknown gene defect in 40% of the cases of Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) 2 type
    • KCNJ5 gene is also implicated but no cases reported in Andersen-Tawil syndrome

Associated Conditions

Conditions associated with Andersen-Tawil syndrome include:[12][13]

  • Episodes of Flaccid Paralysis
  • Ventricular arrhythmias
  • Dilated cardiomyopathy
  • Unique physical features
