Endocytic Regulation of Voltage-Dependent Potassium Channels in the Heart
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012 Understanding the regulation of cardiac ion channels is critical for the prevention of arrhythmia caused by abnormal excitability. Ion channels can be regulated by a change in function (qualitative) and a change in number (quantitative).

Potassium Channels in the Human Myometrium
Experimental Physiology, 2001 The contractility of the human uterus is under the fine control of a variety of interacting bioactive agents. During labour, the excitability of the uterus is drastically transformed in comparison with the non‐labour state and is manifest at the membrane level via the acivity of uterine ion channels.

A Surprising Clarification of the Mechanism of Ion-channel Voltage-Gating [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 An intense controversy has surrounded the mechanism of voltage-gating in ion channels. We interpreted the two leading models of voltage-gating with respect to the thermodynamic energetics of membrane insertion of the voltage-sensing 'module' from a comprehensive set of potassium channels.

The scorpion toxin and the potassium channel
eLife, 2013 The structure of a complex containing a toxin bound to a potassium ion channel has been solved for the first time, revealing how scorpions have designed toxins that can recognize and target the filter that controls the movement of potassium ions through these channels.

Designing for Degradation: Transient Devices Enabled by (Nano)Cellulose
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Recent progress in transient devices enabled by (nano)cellulosic materials is reviewed. Transiency mechanisms, advantages of nanocelluloses, and a suite of applications are discussed. A circular thinking approach coupled with life cycle assessment is applied to critically revisit the potential, advantages, and challenges of nanocellulose‐enabled ...
