Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT) is a familial stress-induced arrhythmia syndrome, mostly caused by mutations in Ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2), the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release channel in cardiomyocytes. Here, RYR2 is linked to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia.
