Calcium‐activated chloride channels in pericytes and their role in regulating organ blood flow
Abstract figure legend Pericytes are microvascular mural cells with diverse roles. Contractile pericytes directly regulate local perfusion, while non‐contractile pericytes coordinate upstream vascular contractility via propagating electrical signals.

Role of KATP channels in angiogenesis [PDF]
Σε πολλά εργαστήρια, σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο, συντελείται σημαντική ερευνητική προσπάθεια για την ταυτοποίηση νέων μοριακών μηχανισμών στο πεδίο της αγγειογένεσης ως στόχων ανάπτυξης φαρμάκων, καθώς η θεραπευτική ρύθμιση της αγγειογένεσης μπορεί να επηρεάσει σημαντικά την εξέλιξη πολλών ασθενειών.

Central KATP channels modulate glucose effectiveness in humans and rodents
Hyperglycemia is a potent regulator of endogenous glucose production (EGP). Loss of this ‘glucose effectiveness’ is a major contributor to elevated plasma glucose concentrations in type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability.

Glucose Recruits KATP Channels via Non-Insulin-Containing Dense-Core Granules [PDF]
Summaryβ cells rely on adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels to initiate and end glucose-stimulated insulin secretion through changes in membrane potential.

Mitochondrial potassium channel opener diazoxide preserves neuronal-vascular function after cerebral ischemia in newborn pigs [PDF]
Background and Purpose-N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) elicits neuronally mediated cerebral arteriolar vasodilation that is reduced by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R).

The mechanism diagram of VDAC1 mediating neuronal excitability and neuropathic pain. Briefly, VDAC1 is expressed in DRG neurons and is upregulated following CCI‐induced neuropathic pain. This upregulation enhances ATP transport from mitochondria to the cytoplasm in sensory neurons, leading to increased neuronal excitability and pain behavior.

Evidence for functional ATP-sensitive (KATP) potassium channels in human and equine articular chondrocytes [PDF]
SummaryObjectiveChondrocytes are highly sensitive to variations in extracellular glucose and oxygen levels in the extracellular matrix. As such, they must possess a number of mechanisms to detect and respond to alterations in the metabolic state of ...
