Kinetic model based on molecular mechanism for action potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Hodgkin-Huxley model for action potentials has been widely used but was not built on a microscopic description of the neuronal membrane. Through molecular dynamics simulations, the molecular mechanism of the channel currents is becoming clear ...

PIEZO1 Channel Is a Potential Regulator of Synovial Sarcoma Cell-Viability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Detection of mechanical stress is essential for diverse biological functions including touch, audition, and maintenance of vascular myogenic tone. PIEZO1, a mechano-sensing cation channel, is widely expressed in neuronal and non-neuronal cells and is ...

Essays on Channel Deletion and Channel Contraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
With the advent of online, mobile, and social media channels, firms have an array of channels in their channel mix. The proliferation of channels has increased marketing costs and may be detrimental to a firm’s competitive position.

Non-equilibrium stochastic dynamics of open ion channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present and discuss a modified version of reaction rate theory (RRT) to describe the passage of a positive ion through a biological ion channel. It takes explicit account of the non-equilibrium nature of the permeation process. Unlike traditional RRT,

Do Magnesium Ions Have Similar Effects as Calcium Ions on Resting Membrane Potential?

open access: yesMembranes
Maintaining a membrane electrical potential of biological cells is a dynamic process, as some cells have a continually changing potential, like pacemaker cells, while other cells may function with large or small changes in the membrane potential ...

Thermo-sensitive TRP channels and prevention of major chronic diseases

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2022
American scientists David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 2021 for their groundbreaking discoveries of capsaicin receptor TRPV1 and menthol receptor TRPM8, revealing the secrets of temperature perception. The

Neurocognitive, School‐Based, and Quality of Life Outcomes for Youth With Sickle Cell Disease and Thalassemia: A Scoping Review

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The medical burdens of sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) are chronic and cumulative, even in children. Yet the effects expand beyond medications and healthcare visits due to their impacts on school attendance, academic performance, and peer engagement.

The asparagine 533 residue in the outer pore loop region of the mouse PKD2L1 channel is essential for its voltage‐dependent inactivation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2017
Voltage‐dependent inactivation of ion channels contributes to the regulation of the membrane potential of excitable cells. Mouse polycystic kidney disease 2‐like 1 (PKD2L1) forms voltage‐dependent nonselective cation channels, which are activated but ...

Emerging role of transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels in cardiac fibroblast pathophysiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Cardiac fibroblasts make up a major proportion of non-excitable cells in the heart and contribute to the cardiac structural integrity and maintenance of the extracellular matrix.
