K+ channel principal subunits are by far the largest and most diverse of the ion channels.
This diversity originates partly from the large number of genes coding for K+ channel …

The aim of this review is to provide basic information on the electrophysiological changes
during acute ischemia and reperfusion from the level of ion channels up to the level of …

Cardiac K+ channels are membrane-spanning proteins that allow the passive movement of
K+ ions across the cell membrane along its electrochemical gradient. They regulate the …

Serôdio, Paulo and Bernardo Rudy. Differential expression of Kv4 K+ channel subunits
mediating subthreshold transient K+ (A-type) currents in rat brain. J. Neurophysiol. 79: 1081 …

Shal-type (Kv4. x) K+ channels are expressed in a variety of tissue, with particularly high
levels in the brain and heart. These channels are the primary subunits that contribute to …

We have reported recently a high density of transient A-type K+ channels located in the
distal dendrites of CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons and shown that these channels …

Chronic hyperglycemia and diabetes lead to impaired cardiac repolarization, K+ channel
remodeling and increased arrhythmia risk. However, the exact signaling mechanism by …

Recent advances in molecular biology have had a major impact on our understanding of the
biophysical and molecular properties of ion channels. This review is focused on cardiac …

The somatodendritic subthreshold A-type K+ current (ISA) in nerve cells is a critical
component of the ensemble of voltage-gated ionic currents that determine somatodendritic …

Rapidly activating and inactivating cardiac transient outward K+ currents, Ito, are expressed
in most mammalian cardiomyocytes, and contribute importantly to the early phase of action …
