Channelopathies are diseases caused by disturbed function of ion channel subunits or the proteins that regulate them. They can be genetic or acquired, generally through an autoimmune attack on the channel.

Types

Condition Channel type
Alternating hemiplegia of childhood Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase
Bartter syndrome various by type
Brugada syndrome various, by type
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) Calcium channel
Congenital hyperinsulinism Inward-rectifier potassium ion channel
Cystic fibrosis Chloride channel
Dravet Syndrome Voltage-gated sodium channel
Episodic Ataxia Voltage-gated potassium channel
Erythromelalgia Voltage-gated sodium channel
Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus Voltage-gated sodium channel
Familial hemiplegic migraine various
Associated with one particular disabling form of Fibromyalgia[1] Voltage-gated sodium channel
Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis Voltage-gated sodium channel
Hypokalemic periodic paralysis Voltage-gated sodium channel

or
voltage-dependent calcium channel (calciumopathy)

Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome Voltage-gated calcium channel
Long QT syndrome

main type Romano-Ward syndrome

various, by type
Malignant hyperthermia Ligand-gated calcium channel
Mucolipidosis type IV Non-selective cation channel
Myotonia congenita Voltage-dependent chloride channel
Neuromyelitis optica Aquaporin-4 water channel
Neuromyotonia Voltage-gated potassium channel
Nonsyndromic deafness various
Paramyotonia congenita

Voltage-gated sodium channel
Retinitis pigmentosa
