摘要 |
The present invention encompasses methods for diagnosis of calcium channel related diseases (e.g., RyR1-related diseases) comprising contacting lymphocytes isolated from a subject with a calcium channel agonist (e.g., an RyR1 agonist), measuring the adenosine and inosine produced by the lymphocytes; and comparing the measured levels in the sample to the adenosine and inosine levels in a normal control, whereby an increase in the adenosine and inosine levels relative to the control is indicative of a calcium channel related disease (e.g., RyR1-related disease). The invention also encompasses kits for diagnosis of calcium channel-related diseases.
