The Voltage Sensor in Voltage-Dependent Ion Channels [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiological Reviews, 2000
In voltage-dependent Na, K, or Ca channels, the probability of opening is modified by the membrane potential. This is achieved through a voltage sensor that detects the voltage and transfers its energy to the pore to control its gate. We present here the theoretical basis of the energy coupling between the electric field and the voltage, which allows ...

High Voltage Optical Fibre Sensor for Use in Wire Relay Electrical Protection Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The last few decades have a wide spread use of optical fibre sensors in many applications. Optical fibre sensors have significant benefits over existing conventional sensors such as; high immunity to electromagnetic interference, the ability to transmit ...

Voltage sensors: challenging, but with potential [PDF]

open access: yesNature Methods, 2015
Genetically encoded voltage sensors are coming of age, but their use still poses challenges that must be addressed from multiple angles.

The secret lives of voltage sensors [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2007
Voltage-gated ion channels serve a wide array of biological purposes. In one well-known example, they orchestrate the action potential in the excitable cells of nervous tissue thus generating excitability throughout the nervous system. This diverse family of transmembrane proteins is exquisitely sensitive to membrane potential and many of its members ...

Voltage sensor of ion channels and enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Reviews, 2011
Placed in the cell membrane (a two-dimensional environment), ion channels and enzymes are able to sense voltage. How these proteins are able to detect the difference in the voltage across membranes has attracted much attention, and at times, heated debate during the last few years.

End effects in linear tubular motors and compensated position sensorless control based on pulsating voltage injection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The sensorless position control of permanent-magnet (PM) synchronous motors can be successfully implemented by superimposing a high-frequency voltage signal on the control voltage.

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Clinical and Biological Features of Response in Resistant Neuroblastoma to 131I‐Metaiodobenzylguanidine Radiotherapy in the Anti‐GD2 Immunotherapy Era

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background 131I‐metaiodobenzylguanidine (131I‐MIBG) radiotherapy is a key treatment for relapsed and refractory (R/R) neuroblastoma (NB). Patients with R/R disease treated in the modern era are increasingly exposed to anti‐GD2 immunotherapy, which exerts selective pressure and may modify both tumor cell state and microenvironment.

Intermediate state trapping of a voltage sensor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 2012
Voltage sensor domains (VSDs) regulate ion channels and enzymes by undergoing conformational changes depending on membrane electrical signals. The molecular mechanisms underlying the VSD transitions are not fully understood. Here, we show that some mutations of I241 in the S1 segment of the Shaker Kv channel positively shift the voltage dependence of ...

Venous Thromboembolism in Pediatric Bone Sarcoma Patients: A 10‐Year, Single‐Institution Experience Encompassing the COVID‐19 Pandemic

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Osteosarcoma (OS) and Ewing sarcoma (EWS) are the most common primary bone cancers in children, but acute thrombosis is poorly characterized in this population. Our study evaluated the rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and associated risk factors in pediatric patients with bone sarcomas treated over a 10‐year period encompassing
