Fully Additive Vertical Organic Electrochemical Transistors on Renewable and Compostable Substrates Enable Ultrasensitive Bioelectronics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Fully additive vertical organic electrochemical transistors (vOECTs) with channel‐length of 226 nm on a 50 µm compostable substrate achieve >106 current modulation and ∼36 mS transconductance. Ion‐selective integration enables 1.1 mA dec−1 sensitivity and 36 µm detection limit, highlighting a scalable platform for sustainable electronics and ...

Molecular basis of the interaction between gating modifier spider toxins and the voltage sensor of voltage-gated ion channels

Scientific Reports, 2016
Voltage-sensor domains (VSDs) are modular transmembrane domains of voltage-gated ion channels that respond to changes in membrane potential by undergoing conformational changes that are coupled to gating of the ion-conducting pore.

Ionic selectivity and thermal adaptations within the voltage-gated sodium channel family of alkaliphilic Bacillus

eLife, 2014
Entry and extrusion of cations are essential processes in living cells. In alkaliphilic prokaryotes, high external pH activates voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav), which allows Na+ to enter and be used as substrate for cation/proton antiporters ...

Monolithic Oxidation Enables Ultrathin Vertically Graded Tantalum Oxide for Low‐Voltage, Low‐Variability Memristive Switching

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Monolithic UV‐ozone oxidation of Ta forms an ultrathin Ta2O5/TaOx bilayer enabling resistive switching with a vertical defect gradient. A stoichiometric surface layer over an oxygen‐deficient sublayer promotes localized filament nucleation near the top interface, enabling low‐voltage operation, and reduced cycle‐to‐cycle variability.

Lipid raft disruption inhibits the activation of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1, but not TRP Melastatin 3 and the voltage-gated L-type calcium channels in sensory neurons

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) ion channels like Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and Melastatin 3 (TRPM3) are nonselective cation channels expressed in primary sensory neurons and peripheral nerve endings, which are located in cholesterol- and sphingolipid-rich ...
