Self-consistent analytic solution for the current and the access resistance in open ion channels. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A self-consistent analytic approach is introduced for the estimation of the access resistance and the current through an open ion channel for an arbitrary number of species.

Synthetic Ion Channels

open access: yesLangmuir, 2013
The objective of this historical review is to recall the development of the field of synthetic ion channels over the past three decades. The most inspiring and influential breakthroughs with regard to structure and function are brought together to give the general reader an easily accessible understanding of the field.

VAMP7 regulates constitutive membrane incorporation of the cold-activated channel TRPM8

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The temperature-sensitive TRPM8 channel is essential for cold sensing and has been linked to pathological cold hypersensitivity. Here, the authors find TRPM8 insertion in the cell membrane is mediated by VAMP7 following atypical LAMP1-containing vesicle ...

Activity-dependent regulation of T-type calcium channels by submembrane calcium ions

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels are involved in numerous physiological functions and various mechanisms finely tune their activity, including the Ca2+ ion itself.

Ion channel activity drives ion channel expression [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 1998
During embryonic development, excitable cells acquire a repertoire of ion channels that finely tune their electrical properties. Although the mechanisms by which an excitable cell selects its complement of ion channels are poorly defined, cell-autonomous as well as non-autonomous programmes of differentiation have been implicated.

Multiple Thresholds in a Model System of Noisy Ion Channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Voltage-activated ion channels vary randomly between open and closed states, influenced by the membrane potential and other factors. Signal transduction is enhanced by noise in a simple ion channel model.

Cardiac Ion Channels [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2009
The analysis of the molecular basis of the inherited cardiac arrhythmias has been the driving force behind the identification of the ion channels that generate the action potential. The genes encoding all the major ion channels have cloned and sequenced. The studies have revealed greater complexity than heretofore imagined.
