We investigate the effects of channel noise on firing coherence of Watts-Strogatz small-world networks consisting of biophysically realistic HH neurons having a fraction of blocked voltage-gated sodium and potassium ion channels embedded in their neuronal membranes. The intensity of channel noise is determined by the number of non-blocked ion channels, which depends on the fraction of working i...
The major species of voltage-gated potassium channel found on mammalian T lymphocytes is referred to as the type n channel. This potassium channel exhibits unique functional properties which distinguish it from other species of potassium channels, including a potential role in the onset of cellular events associated with T cell activation. As a first step in characterizing specific biochemical ...
Previous X-ray studies of have focused on the closed state of the potassium channel. Now the structure of a calcium-activated bacterial potassium channel has revealed the nature of the channel's open state. This provides a first view at high resolution of ion channel gating.
Opening of potassium channels can cause hyperpolarization and relaxation of vascular smooth muscle cells. The aim of this work was to investigate the contribution of potassium channel activation to vasorelaxation in internal thoracic artery taken from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Relaxations to carbachol and sodium nitroprusside were studied in isolated rings of int...
Potassium channels contribute to the excitability of neurons and signaling in the nervous system. They arise from multiple gene families including one for voltage-gated potassium channels and one for inwardly rectifying potassium channels. Features of potassium permeation, channel gating and regulation, and subunit interaction have been analyzed. Potassium channels of similar design have been f...
Developmentally regulated delayed rectifier potassium currents determine the waveform of the action potential in all Xenopus embryonic primary spinal neurons. To examine this developmental program at the molecular level, we have isolated Xenopus Kv2 potassium channel genes Kv2.1 and Kv2.2. Both genes induce functional heterologous expression of delayed rectifier potassium currents. Transcripts ...
Antibodies that immunoprecipitate (125)I-alpha-dendrotoxin-labelled voltage-gated potassium channels extracted from mammalian brain tissue have been identified in patients with neuromyotonia, Morvan's syndrome, limbic encephalitis and a few cases of adult-onset epilepsy. These conditions often improve following immunomodulatory therapies. However, the proportions of the different syndromes, the...
Approximately one decade after the cloning of the first potassium channel, potassium channel genes of amazing diversity have emerged, many of them expressed in the heart. A magnitude of a subunits forming homotetramers or heterotetramers, multiple regulatory subunits, and alternative splicing of genes adds up to a seemingly endless diversity of potassium channels. Considering the relative unifo...
Block of the hERG potassium channel and prolongation of the QT interval are predictors of drug-induced torsade de pointes. However, drugs that block the hERG potassium channel may also block other channels that mitigate torsade risk. We hypothesized that the electrocardiogram can differentiate the effects of multichannel drug block by separate analysis of early repolarization (global J-Tpeak) a...
