Values are means ± SD. Sample numbers (n) represent the number of cells recorded followed by the number of mice. WT, wild-type. APD50 and APD90, action potential durations at 50% and 90% of repolarization, respectively.

*, P < 0.05 and ***, P < 0.001 versus WT control (paired two-tailed Student’s t test); †, P <0.05 and ††, P <0.01 versus WT control; (unpaired two-tailed Student’s t test).

Measurements could not be obtained for one cell following DTX-K treatment so the sample size for the WT DTX-K column represents 18 cells from 14 mice.
