Optical Mapping of Cardiomyocytes in Monolayer Derived from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

open access: yesCells, 2023
Optical mapping is a powerful imaging technique widely adopted to measure membrane potential changes and intracellular Ca2+ variations in excitable tissues using voltage-sensitive dyes and Ca2+ indicators, respectively.

On the accuracy of cell-attached current-clamp recordings from cortical neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Cell-attached current-clamp (CA/CC) recordings have been proposed to measure resting membrane potential and synaptic/agonist responses in neurons without disrupting the cell membrane, thus avoiding the intracellular dialysis that occurs in conventional ...

The microbiologist’s guide to membrane potential dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
All cellular membranes have the functionality of generating and maintaining the gradients of electrical and electrochemical potentials. Such potentials were generally thought to be an essential but homeostatic contributor to complex bacterial behaviors ...

Mitochondrial membrane potential [PDF]

open access: yesAnalytical Biochemistry, 2018
The mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) generated by proton pumps (Complexes I, III and IV) is an essential component in the process of energy storage during oxidative phosphorylation. Together with the proton gradient (ΔpH), ΔΨm forms the transmembrane potential of hydrogen ions which is harnessed to make ATP.

BRANEart: Identify Stability Strength and Weakness Regions in Membrane Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioinformatics, 2021
Understanding the role of stability strengths and weaknesses in proteins is a key objective for rationalizing their dynamical and functional properties such as conformational changes, catalytic activity, and protein-protein and protein-ligand ...

Taste Receptor Cells Generate Oscillating Receptor Potentials by Activating G Protein-Coupled Taste Receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
The receptor potentials of taste receptor cells remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that taste receptor cells generate oscillating depolarization (n = 7) with action potentials in response to sweet, bitter, umami, and salty taste substances.

Membrane potential and cancer progression [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2013
Membrane potential (Vm ), the voltage across the plasma membrane, arises because of the presence of different ion channels/transporters with specific ion selectivity and permeability. Vm is a key biophysical signal in non-excitable cells, modulating important cellular activities, such as proliferation and differentiation.

Event-Based Update of Synapses in Voltage-Based Learning Rules

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2021
Due to the point-like nature of neuronal spiking, efficient neural network simulators often employ event-based simulation schemes for synapses. Yet many types of synaptic plasticity rely on the membrane potential of the postsynaptic cell as a third ...

KCNQ and KCNE Isoform-Dependent Pharmacology Rationalizes Native American Dual Use of Specific Plants as Both Analgesics and Gastrointestinal Therapeutics

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Indigenous peoples of the Americas are proficient in botanical medicine. KCNQ family voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels are sensitive to a variety of ligands, including plant metabolites.
