Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Optoelectronic synaptic devices based on solution‐processed molecular telluride GST‐225 phase‐change inks are demonstrated for three‐factor learning. A global optical signal broadcast through a silicon waveguide induces non‐volatile conductance updates exclusively in locally electrically flagged memristors.

The structure of a voltage gated potassium channel
, 2010 Voltage gated potassium channels (Kv channels) are tetrameric ion channels, responsible for regulating the potassium component of the membrane potential in a large range of cell types ranging from mammalian excitable cells to bacteria. Attempts have been

Roles for Countercharge in the Voltage Sensor Domain of Ion Channels
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 Voltage-gated ion channels share a common structure typified by peripheral, voltage sensor domains. Their S4 segments respond to alteration in membrane potential with translocation coupled to ion permeation through a central pore domain.

Progress on role of ion channels of cardiac fibroblasts in fibrosis
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Cardiac fibrosis is defined as excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) in pathological conditions. Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) activated by injury or inflammation differentiate into myofibroblasts (MFs) with secretory and contractile functions ...

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.

Receptor‐Free Identification of Toxic Gases Enabled by Hygroscopic Aqueous Salt Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Water as a gas sensor coating sounds impossible—until it stops evaporating. Here, hygroscopic salt solutions (LiCl, LiBr, H3PO4) form non‐drying aqueous films on CNT chemiresistors under ambient air. Gases partition into these liquid layers, sometimes transforming into water, and generate salt‐specific resistance fingerprints across a four‐channel ...

Ion Channel Genes in Painful Neuropathies
Biomedicines, 2023 Neuropathic pain (NP) is a typical symptom of peripheral nerve disorders, including painful neuropathy. The biological mechanisms that control ion channels are important for many cell activities and are also therapeutic targets.

Mechanism of electromechanical coupling in voltage-gated potassium channels
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2012 Voltage-gated ion channels play a central role in the generation of action potentials in the nervous system. They are selective for one type of ion – sodium, calcium or potassium. Voltage-gated ion channels are composed of a central pore that allows ions

PSIONplusm Server for Accurate Multi-Label Prediction of Ion Channels and Their Types
Biomolecules, 2020 Computational prediction of ion channels facilitates the identification of putative ion channels from protein sequences. Several predictors of ion channels and their types were developed in the last quindecennial.
