A Lipid Bilayer Formed on a Hydrogel Bead for Single Ion Channel Recordings

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
Ion channel proteins play important roles in various cell functions, making them attractive drug targets. Artificial lipid bilayer recording is a technique used to measure the ion transport activities of channel proteins with high sensitivity and ...

Additively Manufactured Geometry‐Reconfigurable Soft Neural Probes With Monolithic Multifunctionality

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A geometry‐reconfigured additive manufacturing strategy converts planar printed soft materials into soft compact neural probes with integrated hydrogel electrodes and microfluidic channels. The resulting NeuroMAP platform enables scalable multichannel recording, localized chemical delivery, stable in vivo electrophysiological recording, and reduced ...

Bio‐Inspired Multifunctional Superhydrophilic Coatings With Remarkably Fast Self‐Healing Abilities

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We developed bio‐inspired multifunctional hydrogel‐based coatings that exhibit extremely fast/repeatable self‐healing abilities, long‐lasting anti‐fogging performance, superhydrophilicity in air, and underwater superoleophobicity. By doping multivalent metal‐ions into the hydrogel networks, which promoted hydrogen bonding formation and enhanced the ...

Voltage-Gated Potassium Channel Kv1.3 as a Target in Therapy of Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.3 is an integral membrane protein, which is selectively permeable for potassium ions and is activated upon a change of membrane potential.

Magneto‐Ionic Devices With Polymer‐Based Electrolytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer electrolytes are introduced for magneto‐ionic devices based on hydroxide and hydrogen ions. The magneto‐ionic effect results in a pronounced voltage‐controlled variation of coercivity in both devices. The switching speed is in the range of 100 ms.

Effects of Sodium Azide, Barium Ion, d-Amphetamine and Procaine on Inward Rectifying Potassium Channel 6.2 Expressed in Xenopus Oocytes

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008
Background/Purpose: Inward rectifying potassium channel 6.2 (Kir6.2 Δ C26 channel) is closely related to ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Whether sodium azide, barium ion, d-amphetamine or procaine acts directly on the Kir6.2 Δ C26 channel remains ...

Exceptional Electro‐Optic Coefficient Unlocked via Polarization Swaying in KNbO3 Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present the largest reported electro‐optic response in any material to date, guided by a new design principle that exploits ultralow coercive field polarization swaying enabled by low‐symmetry ferroelectric phases in monoclinic KNbO3 thin films for energy‐efficient classical and quantum photonic integrated circuits. ABSTRACT The electro‐optic effect

The Drosophila Small Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channel Negatively Regulates Nociception

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Inhibition of nociceptor activity is important for the prevention of spontaneous pain and hyperalgesia. To identify the critical K+ channels that regulate nociceptor excitability, we performed a forward genetic screen using a Drosophila larval ...

Potassium Channels and Neurovascular Coupling

open access: yesCirculation Journal, 2010
Neuronal activity is communicated to the cerebral vasculature so that adequate perfusion of brain tissue is maintained at all levels of neuronal metabolism. An increase in neuronal activity is accompanied by vasodilation and an increase in local cerebral blood flow.
