Early Effects of Metabolic Syndrome on ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels from Rat Pancreatic Beta Cells [PDF]
Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a cluster of metabolic signs that increases the risk of developing type 2 two diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases. MS leads to pancreatic beta cell exhaustion and decreased insulin secretion through unknown mechanisms

Cardiac ventricular Kir6.1 ATP-sensitive potassium channels: an overlooked effector of cardioprotection [PDF]
IntroductionAdenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels are octameric structures, comprising a pore-forming homotetramer of Kir6.1 or Kir6.2, with 4 accessory sulphonylurea receptor (SUR) subunits.

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

Role of ATP-sensitive potassium channels on hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in endotoxemia [PDF]
Background ATP-regulated potassium channels (KATP) regulate pulmonary vascular tone and are involved in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV). In patients with inflammation like sepsis or ARDS, HPV is impaired, resulting in a ventilation-perfusion ...
