Although the percentage of pathogenic SCN5A mutations in ARVC is very low, PKP2 knockdown and overexpression of Dsg2 mutations both result in a decrease in INa (38, 39), and such a decrease in INa is proposed to be a critical factor in arrhythmogenesis in ARVC (40). This evidence concerns the gene SCN5A and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
