Cardiac sodium channels are integral membrane proteins whose structure is not known at atomic level yet and their molecular kinetics is still being studied through mathematical modeling. This study has focused on adapting an existing model of cardiac Na channel to analyze molecular kinetics of channels at 9-37°C. Irvine et al developed a Markov model for Na channel using Neuronal Network Model ...

in biaxially strained p-mosfet with si channel, formation of a parasitic parallel channel due to misalignment of energy bands degrades device performance by increasing off-state current. in this paper a new approach has been introduced to eliminate this parasitic channel by increasing the dopant concentration of virtual substrate up to . using simulation the impact of this method on the parasit...

there are many reports for involvement of atp-sensitive potassium channels in pancreatic, cardiac and vascular smooth muscle cells. this study examined the effect of single doses of k+ channel openers diazoxide, minoxidil and k+ channel blockers chlorpropamide, glibenclamide on serum concentration of aldosterone in male rats. blood samples were obtained 60 minutes after drug treatment and serum...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Inhibition of HERG channels prolongs the ventricular action potential and the QT interval with the risk of torsade de pointes arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Many drugs induce greater inhibition of HERG channels when the cell membrane is depolarized frequently. The dependence of inhibition on the pulsing rate may yield different IC(50) values at different frequencie...

In this paper, we investigate the model of wiretap channel with action-dependent channel state information. Given the message to be communicated, the transmitter chooses an action sequence that affects the formation of the channel states, and then generates the channel input sequence based on the state sequence and the message. The main channel and the wiretap channel are two discrete memoryles...
