AI-based discovery and cryoEM structural elucidation of a KATP channel pharmacochaperone [PDF]
Pancreatic KATP channel trafficking defects underlie congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) cases unresponsive to the KATP channel opener diazoxide, the mainstay medical therapy for CHI. Current clinically used KATP channel inhibitors have been shown to act as

Structural insights into the mechanism of pancreatic KATP channel regulation by nucleotides [PDF]
KATP channels are energy sensors. Here, authors report the Cryo-EM structures of pancreatic KATP in both the closed state and the pre-open state. These structures illuminate the mechanism of KATP channel regulation by the intracellular nucleotides.

The Structural Basis for the Binding of Repaglinide to the Pancreatic KATP Channel
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).

KATP channel dependent heart multiome atlas [PDF]
Plasmalemmal ATP sensitive potassium (KATP) channels are recognized metabolic sensors, yet their cellular reach is less well understood. Here, transgenic Kir6.2 null hearts devoid of the KATP channel pore underwent multiomics surveillance and systems ...

Pathophysiological Consequences of KATP Channel Overactivity and Pharmacological Response to Glibenclamide in Skeletal Muscle of a Murine Model of Cantù Syndrome [PDF]
Cantù syndrome (CS) arises from mutations in ABCC9 and KCNJ8 genes that lead to gain of function (GOF) of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels containing SUR2A and Kir6.1 subunits, respectively, of KATP channels.
