SCN4A and hypokalemic periodic paralysis: Hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HPP) is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by intermittent episodes of delayed paralysis of skeletal muscle with episodes of hypokalemia, caused by variants in CACNA1S or SCN4A genes, or secondary to thyrotoxicosis, Sjogren syndrome, primary aldosteronism, etc. HPP may be the only presentation in Andersen-Tawil syndrome in which the majority of cases are caused by pathogenic variants in the KCNJ2 gene.
