Background Information
Sodium channel protein type 4 subunit alpha (SCN4A, also known as Nav1.4) is the pore-forming subunit of the primary sodium channel present in skeletal muscles (PMID: 16193245). Nav1.4 related channelopathies that affect skeletal muscle excitability are dominant diseases classified in two opposite groups as defined by the prevalent clinical symptoms: muscle stiffness and hypertonia (myotonia) episodes [non dystrophic myotonias (NDM)], and muscle weakness resulting in paralysis episodes (periodic paralyses; PP) (PMID: 20237798; 26285000).
