Abstract
⺠KATP currents are detected in embryonic cardiomyocytes since early cardiac development. ⺠Embryos overexpressing KATP demonstrate normal cardiac looping pattern. ⺠Transgenic mice overexpressing KATP channel subunits demonstrate embryonic lethality. ⺠The embryonic lethality of the KATP overexpressing embryos is a result of in utero heart failure.
