(B) Portal tract with bile duct (∗), hepatic artery (#) and thickening of muscle wall ‘arterialisation’ of the portal vein (+); AZAN staining, 20×. Liver histology of father: (C) Portal tract with increased number of vessels, portal vein dilatation (∗) and paraportal shunting vessels (#); Elastica von Giesson staining, 10×.

5 Fig. 4 Structure of the SK channel consisting of six transmembrane domains, a pore region (P) between S5 and S6, and calmodulin interacting with the channel’s intracellular COOH terminus. The mutation changes a conserved residue in the intracellular loop between the 4th and 5th transmembrane segment. Adapted from Ledoux et al with permission.
