The relationship between apamin binding and channel block in KCa2 potassium channels. [PDF]

, 2013
Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa2.1,2.2,2.3) are widely distributed throughout the body and are involved in diverse physiological processes including the regulation of neuronal firing and smooth muscle contraction.

Molecular mechanisms of the coupling of gating to voltage sensing in transmembrane proteins [PDF]

, 2014
Voltage gated potassium ion (Kv) channels regulate action potentials of the nervous system by responding to changes in transmembrane voltage, enabling K+ transport across the membrane to restore cells to their resting potential.

Voltage-gated potassium channels as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Voltage-gated potassium channels are a widely distributed subgroup of potassium channels responsible for the efflux of potassium in the repolarisation of the cell membrane, and hence contribute to the latency and propagation of action potentials. As they

Role of various potassium channels in caffeine-induced aortic relaxation in rats

Saudi Journal of Medicine and Medical Sciences, 2016
Background: Studies done on caffeine-induced changes in aortic rings have demonstrated inconclusive results. Moreover, the role of various potassium channels in caffeine-induced effects has not been explored so far.

Lignin Mimicking Protein Methylation Augments the Efficacy of FOLFOX Chemotherapy by Anchoring Thymidylate Synthase

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Lignin‐mimicking protein methylation can enhance the efficacy and mitigate the toxicity of the classic FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen. ABSTRACT FOLFOX has served as the standard chemotherapy regimen for advanced stages, specifically in the treatment of pancreatic, colorectal, and bladder cancers.

Beyond Presumptions: Toward Mechanistic Clarity in Metal‐Free Carbon Catalysts for Electrochemical H2O2 Production via Data Science

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐free carbon catalysts enable the sustainable synthesis of hydrogen peroxide via two‐electron oxygen reduction; however, active site complexity continues to hinder reliable interpretation. This review critiques correlation‐based approaches and highlights the importance of orthogonal experimental designs, standardized catalyst passports ...

Investigations on subunit-specific assembly and structure-function studies of the voltage sensor in KCNQ potassium channels [PDF]

, 2007
A detailed understanding of how potassium channels function is crucial e. g. for the development of drugs, which could lead to novel therapeutic concepts for diseases ranging from diabetes to cardiac abnormalities.

Patch clamp studies of human sperm under physiological ionic conditions reveal three functionally and pharmacologically distinct cation channels [PDF]

, 2014
Whilst fertilizing capacity depends upon a K+ conductance G? that allows the spermatozoon membrane potential Vm to be held at a negative value, the characteristics of this conductance in human sperm are virtually unknown.

Ion‐Reconfigurable “N”‐Shaped Antiambipolar Behavior in Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A unique N‐shaped negative differential transconductance (NDT) characteristics is demonstrated in single‐polymer organic electrochemical transistors through a sequential doping–redox–doping process driven by iodide ions. This redox‐driven mechanism enables low‐voltage, ion‐controlled reconfigurability and tunable current modulation, allowing seamless ...
