KATP channels and cardioprotection [PDF]
This review discusses ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels, which connect intracellular energy metabolism to cellular electrical activity and play crucial roles in various physiological processes, particularly in the pancreas and cardiovascular system.

The unusual stoichiometry of ADP activation of the KATP channel [PDF]
KATP channels, oligomers of 4 pore-forming Kir6.2 proteins and 4 sulfonylurea receptors (SUR), sense metabolism by monitoring both cytosolic ATP, which closes the channel by interacting with Kir6.2, and ADP, which opens it via SUR.

Membrane trafficking of ATP-sensitive potassium channels [PDF]
ATP-sensitive potassium (KATp) channels are known to play a vital role in the regulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic 0-cells. Changes in the ratio of [ATP]/[ADP] within the cell are known to regulate the activity of channels, but very little is ...

Pharmacological Profiling of KATP Channel Modulators: An Outlook for New Treatment Opportunities for Migraine. [PDF]
Migraine is a highly disabling pain disorder with huge socioeconomic and personal costs. It is genetically heterogenous leading to variability in response to current treatments and frequent lack of response. Thus, new treatment strategies are needed.

Loss of ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channel Surface Expression in Heart Failure Underlies Dysregulation of Action Potential Duration and Myocardial Vulnerability to Injury. [PDF]
The search for new approaches to treatment and prevention of heart failure is a major challenge in medicine. The adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel has been long associated with the ability to preserve myocardial function and ...

Regulation of KATP channel activity [PDF]
ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels are present in many tissues, most notably pancreatic islets and cardiac cells, where they couple the metabolic state of a cell to its electrical activity by regulating the flow of K+ across the membrane in response

Chronic exposure to KATP channel openers results in attenuated glucose sensing in hypothalamic GT1-7 neurons [PDF]
Individuals with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) are often exposed to recurrent episodes of hypoglycaemia. This reduces hormonal and behavioural responses that normally counteract low glucose in order to maintain glucose homeostasis, with altered responsiveness of

Immunolocalization of KATP channel subunits in mouse and rat cardiac myocytes and the coronary vasculature. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Electrophysiological data suggest that cardiac KATP channels consist of Kir6.2 and SUR2A subunits, but the distribution of these (and other KATP channel subunits) is poorly defined.
