Nanoscale-targeted patch-clamp recordings of functional presynaptic ion channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Direct electrical access to presynaptic ion channels has hitherto been limited to large specialized terminals such as the calyx of Held or hippocampal mossy fiber bouton.

Alpha-Adrenoceptor Antagonists Improve Memory by Activating -methyl-D-Aspartate-Induced Ion Currents in the Rat Hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Neurourology Journal, 2015
Purpose: Alpha1 (α1)-adrenoceptor antagonists are widely used to treat lower urinary tract symptoms. These drugs not only act on peripheral tissues, but also cross the blood-brain barrier and affect the central nervous system.

Electrophysiological evaluation of the effect of peptide toxins on voltage-gated ion channels: a scoping review on theoretical and methodological aspects with focus on the Central and South American experience [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases
The effect of peptide toxins on voltage-gated ion channels can be reliably assessed using electrophysiological assays, such as the patch-clamp technique.

Firing clamp: A novel method for single-trial estimation of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic neuronal conductances

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Understanding non-stationary neuronal activity as seen in vivo requires estimation of both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic conductances from a single trial of recording.

Q&A: using Patch-seq to profile single cells

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2017
Individual neurons vary widely in terms of their gene expression, morphology, and electrophysiological properties. While many techniques exist to study single-cell variability along one or two of these dimensions, very few techniques can assess all three

High throughput clone screening on overexpressed hERG1 and Kv1.3 potassium channels using ion channel reader (ICR) label free technology

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Pharmacological studies aimed at the development of newly synthesized drugs directed against ion channels (as well as genetic studies of ion channel mutations) involve the development and use of transfected cells.

Patch-clamp measurement of ICRAC and ORAI channel activity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Depletion of internal Ca(2+) stores activates store-operated Ca(2+) channels. The most prominent members of this class of channels are Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels, which are present in a variety of cell types including immune cells ...

Errors in the measurement of voltage-activated ion channels in cell-attached patch-clamp recordings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Patch-clamp recording techniques have revolutionized understanding of the function and sub-cellular location of ion channels in excitable cells. The cell-attached patch-clamp configuration represents the method of choice to describe the endogenous ...

Comparative Study Between Eversion and Patch Techniques in Carotid Endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: yesAl-Azhar International Medical Journal
Background: Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) remains a cornerstone therapy for significant carotid stenosis. Eversion CEA may shorten clamp time and potentially influence restenosis, compared with conventional longitudinal endarterectomy with patch ...

From understanding cellular function to novel drug discovery: the role of planar patch-clamp array chip technology

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2011
All excitable cell functions rely upon ion channels that are embedded in their plasma membrane. Perturbations of ion channel structure or function result in pathologies ranging from cardiac dysfunction to neurodegenerative disorders.
