Ligand binding and conformational changes of SUR1 subunit in pancreatic ATP-sensitive potassium channels

Protein & Cell, 2018
ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP) are energy sensors on the plasma membrane. By sensing the intracellular ADP/ATP ratio of β-cells, pancreatic KATP channels control insulin release and regulate metabolism at the whole body level.

Designed Lewis Acid–Base Passivation for High Performance Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silicon's high cost and long energy payback time remain major barriers to the global expansion of solar power. In contrast, metal–halide perovskites offer abundant, solution‐processable absorbers, and have achieved efficiencies of 25%–30%, positioning them as strong competitors to silicon.

The Structural Basis for the Binding of Repaglinide to the Pancreatic KATP Channel

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Repaglinide (RPG) is a short-acting insulin secretagogue widely prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It boosts insulin secretion by inhibiting the pancreatic ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP).

ATP sensitive potassium (KATP) channel inhibition:A promising new drug target for migraine

, 2020
BACKGROUND: Recently, the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) sensitive potassium channel opener levcromakalim was shown to induce migraine attacks with a far higher incidence than any previous provoking agent such as calcitonin gene-related peptide.

Unlocking Exceptional Strengthening in Aluminum Alloys via Interstitial Cottrell Atmosphere Formation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cyclic unloading‐aging‐reloading micro‐tensile tests under various aging durations and temperatures, combined with comprehensive microstructural characterization reveal that the yield point phenomenon in Aluminum‐Carbon (Al‐C) thin films originates from Cottrell atmosphere formation.

ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channel and Hormone/Neuropeptide

Folia Endocrinologica Japonica, 1995
ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP) are the ion channels which are closely associated with cellular metabolism. A number of chemical compounds which block KATP facilitate the release of hormones or neuropeptides. For example, KATP-blocking agents such as antidiabetic sulfonylureas and imidazolines stimulate insulin secretion from pancreatic beta ...

Magnetic‐Field Control of Surface States in CoFe2O4 Thin Films for Nitrate Electroreduction to Ammonia

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetic‐field‐assisted CVD of heterometallic single‐source precursors modulates thin‐film surface electronic structure and interfacial charge transfer. Field‐grown (Cobalt ferrite‐1T)CF‐1T films exhibit stabilized electronic states, lower kinetic barriers, and markedly enhanced nitrate‐to‐ammonia electrocatalysis versus (Cobalt ferrite‐0T) CF‐0T ...

Steady-state modulation of voltage-gated K+ channels in rat arterial smooth muscle by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and protein phosphatase 2B

, 2015
Voltage-gated potassium channels (Kv) are important regulators of membrane potential in vascular smooth muscle cells, which is integral to controlling intracellular Ca2+ concentration and regulating vascular tone. Previous work indicates that Kv channels

The therapeutic agents that target ATP-sensitive potassium channels [PDF]

Acta Pharmaceutica, 2016
Abstract ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels are a major drug target for the treatment of type-2 diabetes. KATP channels are ubiquitously expressed and link the metabolic state to electrical excitability. In pancreatic β-cells, KATP channels are crucial in the regulation of glucose-induced insulin secretion.
