Voltage‐gated potassium channels mediate thyroid hormone control of skeletal muscle excitability
Abstract figure legend Thyroid hormone (TH)‐dependent remodelling of potassium (K+) channel networks regulates skeletal muscle (SkM) excitability. Triiodothyronine (T3), locally generated from thyroxine (T4) by type 2 deiodinase (D2), binds thyroid hormone receptors (TRα/β) and modulates transcription via thyroid response elements (TREs).

hERG1 channels and potential therapeutics for long QT syndrome
Abstract figure legend Prolonged QT results from hERG1 channel dysfunction. (A) Physiological anterograde trafficking of hERG1 channels to the plasma membrane, leading to a normal electrocardiogram. (B) Prolonged QT results from the presence of fewer hERG1 channels on the plasma membrane due to decreased anterograde trafficking or reduced function due ...

Pharmacological rescue of trafficking-impaired ATP-sensitive potassium channels
ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels link cell metabolism to membrane excitability and are involved in a wide range of physiological processes including hormone secretion, control of vascular tone, and protection of cardiac and neuronal cells against ...

At clinically relevant plasma concentrations, stimulant medications produced minimal effects on conduction velocity but modulated automaticity and repolarization in a hiPSC‐derived cardiomyocyte (hiPSC‐CM) model. These findings provide a foundation for future investigations of stimulant‐associated cardiac safety and support the utility of hiPSC‐CM ...

The Role of Neuropeptide Y in Dental Pulp: Balancing Neurogenic Inflammation and Pain Modulation
ABSTRACT Background Dental pulp is a densely innervated, low‐compliance tissue in which neurogenic inflammation can rapidly escalate into oedema, raised intrapulpal pressure, microvascular compromise, and pain. While Substance P (SP) and Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) are well‐established drivers of pulp vasodilation, the Neuroopeptide Y (NPY ...

Relationship between membrane phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate and receptor-mediated inhibition of native neuronal M channels [PDF]
The relationship between receptor-induced membrane phosphatidylinositol-4'5'-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and M-current inhibition was assessed in single-dissociated rat sympathetic neurons by simultaneous or parallel recording of membrane current and ...

Ketones prevent oxidative impairment of hippocampal synaptic integrity through KATP channels.
Dietary and metabolic therapies are increasingly being considered for a variety of neurological disorders, based in part on growing evidence for the neuroprotective properties of the ketogenic diet (KD) and ketones.

The Roles of EETs in Neurological Disorders
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), derived from arachidonic acid (ARA) via cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes, are produced in nearly all human tissues and exert a wide range of beneficial effects. This review summarizes the roles and potential mechanisms of EETs in neurological disorders, with a focus on cerebrovascular diseases, epilepsy, Parkinson's ...

Abstract Background Tourette Syndrome (TS) is defined by motor and vocal tics that begin in childhood and persist for over a year. TS causes difficulties in daily life and lowers self‐esteem, yet pharmacological treatment options for TS remain limited.

The κ opioid receptor (κ receptor, KOR) is a G protein‐coupled receptor with well established roles in analgesia and immune modulation. Although historically studied primarily in the central nervous system (CNS), growing evidence indicates that κ signalling in peripheral tissues plays an important role in regulating pain, inflammation and immune ...
