Intrinsic Gating Properties of a Cloned G Protein-activated Inward Rectifier K^+ Channel [PDF]

, 1995
The voltage-, time-, and K^+-dependent properties of a G protein-activated inwardly rectifying K^+ channel (GIRK1/KGA/Kir3.1) cloned from rat atrium were studied in Xenopus oocytes under two-electrode voltage clamp. During maintained G protein activation

Neuro‐Immune Crosstalk: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Neurons, immune cells, and other cellular components within the disease microenvironment (such as stromal cells and tumor cells) constitute a dynamically evolving ecosystem. Neurons directly modulate immune cell activity and inflammatory responses through the release of neurotransmitters (e.g., norepinephrine and CGRP), while also promoting tumor ...

Involvement of HCN Channel in Muscarinic Inhibitory Action on Tonic Firing of Dorsolateral Striatal Cholinergic Interneurons

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
The striatum is the most prominent nucleus in the basal ganglia and plays an important role in motor movement regulation. The cholinergic interneurons (ChIs) in striatum are involved in the motion regulation by releasing acetylcholine (ACh) and ...

Peripheral Nerves in Cancer: Regulatory Roles and Therapeutic Strategies

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
The interaction between cancer cells and peripheral nerves: (1) tumor cells could induce the growth of new neural axons and constructing a neural fiber network within the tumor tissue through secreting nerve growth factors; (2) nerve‐derived bioactive molecules can induce perineural invasion of tumor and regulate the malignant phenotype of tumor, such ...

HL-1 cells express an inwardly rectifying K+ current activated via muscarinic receptors comparable to that in mouse atrial myocytes [PDF]

, 2010
An inwardly rectifying K^+ current is present in atrial cardiac myocytes that is activated by acetylcholine (I_{KACh}). Physiologically, activation of the current in the SA node is important in slowing the heart rate with increased parasympathetic tone ...
