The KEs include the inhibition of rapid delayed rectifying potassium current, prolongation of action potential duration, prolongation of QT interval&nbsp;&nbsp;and Torsades de Pointes. Overall, all these steps clearly indicate that there has been a distruption&nbsp;in cardiac electrophysiology, leading to sudden cardiac death on individual level.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>

  • <h2>Considerations for Potential Applications of the AOP (optional)</h2>
  • <p>The AOP may be useful in the risk assessment on&nbsp;several types&nbsp;molecules&nbsp;including drugs, as well as other types of chemicals, biocides, or pesticides. This AOP elucidating the pathway from hERG blockade to sudden cardiac death may provide important insights into the potential toxicity of direct and/or indirect hERG inhibitors.</p>
