Do We Need a New Hypothesis for KATP Closure in β-Cells? Distinguishing the Baby From the Bathwater [PDF]

open access: yes
Let us first start where we all agree: KATP channels are the main conductance of the resting pancreatic b-cell, and their closure by changes in the ATP-to-ADP ratio is the triggering mechanism used by glucose to increase Ca21 flux into the b-cell (1–3 ...

Activation of KATP channels in pain modulation: a systematic review of preclinical studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
ObjectiveTo systematically review the involvement of KATP channel activation in pain modulation in preclinical studies.BackgroundKATP channels are expressed at several levels in the spinal and trigeminal pain pathways, where they seem to modulate ...

Role of Cardiac KATP Channels During Anoxia and Ischemia

open access: yes, 1997
In isolated heart cells, maintained anoxia causes a transient opening of KATP channels. In the ischemic myocardium, this extra K+ conductance results in a decreased contractility and may be arrhythmogenic.

AMPK modulates glucose-sensing in insulin-secreting cells by altered phosphotransfer to KATP channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Glucose-sensing (GS) behaviour in pancreatic ß-cells is dependent on ATP-sensitive K(+) channel (KATP) activity, which is controlled by the relative levels of the KATP ligands ATP and ADP, responsible for closing and opening KATP, respectively.

Dynamic duo: Kir6 and SUR in KATP channel structure and function

open access: yesChannels
KATP channels are ligand-gated potassium channels that couple cellular energetics with membrane potential to regulate cell activity. Each channel is an eight subunit complex comprising four central pore-forming Kir6 inward rectifier potassium channel ...

Phentolamine block of KATP channels is mediated by Kir6.2.

open access: yes, 1997
The ATP-sensitive K+-channel (KATP channel) plays a key role in insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells. It is closed both by glucose metabolism and the sulfonylurea drugs that are used in the treatment of noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus ...

Diazoxide-responsive hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia caused by HNF4A gene mutations

open access: yes, 2010
Objective: The phenotype associated with heterozygous HNF4A gene mutations has recently been extended to include diazoxide responsive neonatal hypoglycemia in addition to maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).

Glucose Recruits KATP Channels via Non-Insulin-Containing Dense-Core Granules

open access: yes, 2007
Summaryβ cells rely on adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels to initiate and end glucose-stimulated insulin secretion through changes in membrane potential.
