Mitochondrial Potassium Channels as Druggable Targets
Biomolecules, 2020 Mitochondrial potassium channels have been described as important factors in cell pro-life and death phenomena. The activation of mitochondrial potassium channels, such as ATP-regulated or calcium-activated large conductance potassium channels, may have ...

TRP Channels Interactome as a Novel Therapeutic Target in Breast Cancer
Frontiers in Oncology, 2021 Breast cancer is one of the most frequent cancer types worldwide and the first cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Although significant therapeutic advances have been achieved with drugs such as tamoxifen and trastuzumab, breast cancer still caused ...

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2011 Ion channels are specialized transmembrane proteins that permit the passive flow of ions following their electrochemical gradients. In the airways, ion channels participate in the production of epithelium-based hydroelectrolytic secretions and in the control of intracellular Ca(2+) levels that will ultimately activate almost all lung cells, either ...

Imaging with Ion Channels [PDF]
Analytical Chemistry, 2021 We describe the incorporation of gated ion channels into probes for scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM) as a robust platform for collecting spatial information at interfaces. Specifically, a dual-barrel pipet is used, where one barrel controls the pipet position and the second barrel houses voltage-gated transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (

SCN1A channelopathies: Navigating from genotype to neural circuit dysfunction
Frontiers in Neurology, 2023 The SCN1A gene is strongly associated with epilepsy and plays a central role for supporting cortical excitation-inhibition balance through the expression of NaV1.1 within inhibitory interneurons.

Exploring the Two Coupled Conformational Changes That Activate the Munc18-1/Syntaxin-1 Complex
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021 Calcium-dependent synaptic vesicle exocytosis is mediated by SNARE complex formation. The transition from the Munc18-1/syntaxin-1 complex to the SNARE complex is catalyzed by the Munc13-1 MUN domain and involves at least two conformational changes ...
