Modulation of Kir4.1 and Kir4.1-Kir5.1 channels by extracellular cations [PDF]
This work demonstrates that extracellular Na+ modulates the cloned inwardly rectifying K+ channels Kir4.1 and Kir4.1-Kir5.1. Whole-cell patch clamp studies on astrocytes have previously indicated that inward potassium currents are regulated by external ...

Modulation of Kir4.1 and Kir4.1–Kir5.1 channels by small changes in cell volume
Udgivelsesdato: 2009-Jun-26The K+ channels Kir4.1 and Kir4.1-Kir5.1 are expressed in the glial cells of the CNS and are involved in regulation of the K+ homeostasis.

High-potency block of Kir4.1 channels by pentamidine: Molecular basis [PDF]
Inward rectifier potassium (Kir) channels are expressed in almost all mammalian tissues and contribute to a wide range of physiological processes. Kir4.1 channel expression is found in the brain, inner ear, eye, and kidney.

Inhibition of Kir4.1 potassium channels by quinacrine. [PDF]
Inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels are expressed in many cell types and contribute to a wide range of physiological processes. Particularly, Kir4.1 channels are involved in the astroglial spatial potassium buffering. In this work, we examined the effects of the cationic amphiphilic drug quinacrine on Kir4.1 channels heterologously expressed ...

International audienceNeuronal rhythmogenesis in the spinal cord is correlated with variations in extracellular K + levels ([K + ] e). Astrocytes play important role in [K + ] e homeostasis and compute neuronal information. Yet it is unclear how neuronal

Polyamine Permeation and Rectification of Kir4.1 Channels [PDF]
Inward rectifier K(+) (Kir) channels are expressed in multiple neuronal and glial cells. Recent studies have equated certain properties of exogenously expressed Kir4.1 channels with those of native K(+) currents in brain cells, as well as demonstrating the expression of Kir4.1 subunits in these tissues. There are nagging problems however with assigning

1. The inwardly rectifying potassium channel Kir5.1 appears to form functional channels only by coexpression with either Kir4.1 or Kir4.2. Kir4.1-Kir5.1 heteromeric channels have been shown to exist in vivo in renal tubular epithelia.

Role of Kir4.1 channels in growth control of glia [PDF]
AbstractThe inwardly rectifying potassium channel Kir4.1 is widely expressed by astrocytes throughout the brain. Kir4.1 channels are absent in immature, proliferating glial cells. The progressive expression of Kir4.1 correlates with astrocyte differentiation and is characterized by the establishment of a negative membrane potential (> −70 mV) and an

Chloroquine blocks the Kir4.1 channels by an open-pore blocking mechanism
European Journal of Pharmacology, 2017Kir4.1 channels have been implicated in various physiological processes, mainly in the K+ homeostasis of the central nervous system and in the control of glial function and neuronal excitability. Even though, pharmacological research of these channels is very limited.
