BACKGROUND: The authors reported a mutation, P1158S, of the human skeletal muscle sodium channel gene (SCN4A) in a family with cold-induced hypokalemic periodic paralysis (hypoKPP) and myotonia.

OBJECTIVE: To identify mechanisms of temperature dependency in this channelopathy.

METHODS: Using the amphotericin B perforated patch clamp method, sodium currents were recorded at 22 and 32 degrees C from the wild-type (WT) and P1158S mutant SCN4A expressed in tsA201 cells. Computer simulation was performed, incorporating the gating parameters of the P1158S mutant SCN4A.

RESULTS: P1158S mutant SCN4A exhibited hyperpolarizing shifts in voltage dependence of both activation and inactivation curves at a cold temperature and a slower rate of inactivation than the WT. Computer simulation reproduced the abnormal skeletal muscle electrical activities of both paralysis at a low potassium concentration in the cold and myotonia at a normal potassium concentration.

CONCLUSIONS: Both paralysis and myotonia are attributable to the biophysical properties of the SCN4A mutation associated with hypoKPP. This is the first report of an SCN4A mutation that exhibits temperature-dependent shifts of voltage dependence in sodium channel gating.
