Scorpion toxins targeting Kv1.3 channels: insights into immunosuppression [PDF]
Scorpion venoms are natural sources of molecules that have, in addition to their toxic function, potential therapeutic applications. In this source the neurotoxins can be found especially those that act on potassium channels. Potassium channels are responsible for maintaining the membrane potential in the excitable cells, especially the voltage ...

Rearrangement of a unique Kv1.3 selectivity filter conformation upon binding of a drug [PDF]
We report two structures of the human voltage-gated potassium channel (Kv) Kv1.3 in immune cells alone (apo-Kv1.3) and bound to an immunomodulatory drug called dalazatide (dalazatide–Kv1.3).

The lymphocyte potassium channels Kv1.3 and KCa3.1 as targets for immunosuppression [PDF]
AbstractThe voltage‐gated Kv1.3 and the calcium‐activated KCa3.1 potassium channel modulate many calcium‐dependent cellular processes in immune cells, including T‐cell activation and proliferation and have therefore been proposed as novel therapeutic targets for immunomodulation.

Mitochondrial Kv1.3 Channels as Target for Treatment of Multiple Myeloma
Despite several new developments in the treatment of multiple myeloma, all available therapies are only palliative without curative potential and all patients ultimately relapse. Thus, novel therapeutic options are urgently required to prolong survival of or to even cure myeloma.

KCNE4 Is an Inhibitory Subunit to Kv1.1 and Kv1.3 Potassium Channels [PDF]
Kv1 potassium channels are widely distributed in mammalian tissues and are involved in a variety of functions from controlling the firing rate of neurons to maturation of T-lymphocytes. Here we show that the newly described KCNE4 beta-subunit has a drastic inhibitory effect on currents generated by Kv1.1 and Kv1.3 potassium channels.
