Overview of Familial Periodic Paralysis

Most recent studies have shown that Familial Periodic Paralysis shares some biological mechanisms with acidosis, cardiac-arrhythmia, channelopathies, hyperkalemic-periodic-paralysis, hyperthyroidism, hypokalemic-periodic-paralysis, muscle-weakness, muscular-atrophy, muscular-dystrophy, myasthenia-gravis, myopathy, myotonia-congenita, myotonic-dystrophy, neuromuscular-diseases, paramyotonia-congenita-(disorder), periodic-paralysis-(finding), thyrotoxic-periodic-paralysis, thyrotoxicosis, weakness.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Familial Periodic Paralysis, and have been seen in publications frequently: Aldosterone Secretion, Cation Transport, Excretion, Glomerular Filtration, Insulin Secretion, Ion Transport, Mating, Membrane Depolarization, Muscle Atrophy, Parturition, Pathogenesis, Pinocytosis, Relaxation Of Muscle, Reverse Transcription, Secretion, Transport

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Familial Periodic Paralysis, such as CACNA1S, CST7, DBNL, DPYD, DPYS, INS, KCNC4, KCNE3, KCNJ2, MB, MSX2, PSMC1, REST, RPS4X, RPS4Y1, SCN4A, SPTA1.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this disease. Plesae stay updated.
