Bio‐Inspired Artificial Ionic Mechanoreceptor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A skin‐inspired artificial mechanoreceptor based on ionic interactions is presented for biomimetic tactile sensing. Pressure‐driven ionic redistribution within microfluidic channels generates a self‐powered electrical signal without external bias. The generated waveform exhibits mechanoreceptor‐like temporal features, including overshoot and undershoot,

Molecular Bases of Brain Preconditioning

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Preconditioning of the brain induces tolerance to the damaging effects of ischemia and prevents cell death in ischemic penumbra. The development of this phenomenon is mediated by mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (KATP+) channels ...

KATP channels in cerebral hemodynamics: a systematic review of preclinical and clinical studies

Frontiers in Neurology
Cumulative evidence suggests that ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels act as a key regulator of cerebral blood flow (CBF). This implication seems to be complicated, since KATP channels are expressed in several vascular-related structures such as ...

Ground‐State Charge‐Transfer Doping in Donor–Acceptor Semiconducting Polymers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates controlled ground‐state charge‐transfer complex formation (GS‐CTC) and doping in a series of diketopyrrolopyrrole‐based donor–acceptor semiconducting polymers paired with a π‐conjugated penta‐t‐butylpentacyanopentabenzo[25]annulene “cyanostar” macrocycle. Complementary experimental techniques show how subtle molecular, electronic,

ATP-sensitive potassium channel (K_ATP channel) expression in the normal canine pancreas and in canine insulinomas

BMC Veterinary Research, 2005
Background Pancreatic beta cells express ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels that are needed for normal insulin secretion and are targets for drugs that modulate insulin secretion. The KATP channel is composed of two subunits: a sulfonylurea receptor

Blood–Brain Barrier Regulation: Evolving From Classic Strategies to Electrochemical Ion and Reactive Oxygen Species Control

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional therapies suffer from poor blood–brain barrier (BBB) penetration and disordered ion/reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis, hindering precise neurological treatment. Electrochemical strategies achieve accurate spatiotemporal regulation of neural homeostasis.

ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels: Structures, Functions, and Pathophysiology

The Japanese Journal of Physiology, 1998
ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP channels) play important roles in various tissues by coupling cell metabolic status to electrical activity. Recently, molecular biological and electrophysiological techniques have revealed the molecular basis of the KATP channels to be a complex of the Kir6.0 subunit, a member of the inwardly rectifying K+ channel
