Endocytosis of KATP Channels Drives Glucose-Stimulated Excitation of Pancreatic β Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells in response to high glucose (HG) critically depends on the inhibition of KATP channel activity in HG.

Residue 39 of Kir6.2 drives a difference in ATP sensitivity in human and canine beta-cell K<sub>ATP</sub> channels. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Physiol
ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels link beta-cell metabolism to electrical activity. By modulating the beta-cell membrane potential, they finely regulate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

Cardiac ventricular Kir6.1 ATP-sensitive potassium channels: an overlooked effector of cardioprotection. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Physiol
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 Structural Basis for the Binding of Repaglinide to the Pancreatic KATP Channel

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Repaglinide (RPG) is a short-acting insulin secretagogue widely prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It boosts insulin secretion by inhibiting the pancreatic ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP).

Rab35 GTPase positively regulates endocytic recycling of cardiac KATP channels

open access: yesChannels, 2022
ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channel couples membrane excitability to intracellular energy metabolism. Maintaining KATP channel surface expression is key to normal insulin secretion, blood pressure and cardioprotection.

Functional Regulation of KATP Channels and Mutant Insight Into Clinical Therapeutic Strategies in Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP channels) play pivotal roles in excitable cells and link cellular metabolism with membrane excitability. The action potential converts electricity into dynamics by ion channel-mediated ion exchange to generate ...

Expression and function of ATP-dependent potassium channels in zebrafish islet β-cells [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP channels) are critical nutrient sensors in many mammalian tissues. In the pancreas, KATP channels are essential for coupling glucose metabolism to insulin secretion.
