Estrogen and adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels.
Potassium Channels To the Editor: We read with interest the publication by Lee et al1 describing the potential mechanisms and effects of intracoronary conjugated estrogens on coronary vasomotion and myocardial ischemia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary angioplasty. We were surprised at the very high bolus dose of intracoronary Premarin (Wyeth-Ayerst) given—5 mg into the left coronary...
متن کاملAdenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels and cardiomyopathies (Review).
Cardiomyopathies have been indicated to be one of the leading causes of heart failure. Though it was indicated that genetic defects, viral infection and trace element deficiency were among the causes of cardiomyopathy, the etiology has remained to be fully elucidated. Cardiomyocytes require large amounts of energy to maintain their normal biological functions. Adenosine triphosphate-sensitive p...
متن کاملMolecular biology of adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels.
KATP channels are a newly defined class of potassium channels based on the physical association of an ABC protein, the sulfonylurea receptor, and a K+ inward rectifier subunit. The beta-cell KATP channel is composed of SUR1, the high-affinity sulfonylurea receptor with multiple TMDs and two NBFs, and KIR6.2, a weak inward rectifier, in a 1:1 stoichiometry. The pore of the channel is formed by K...

NICHOLS, C. G., AND W. J. LEDERER. Adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels in the cardiovascular system. Am. J. Physiol. 261 (Heart Circ. Physiol. 30): H1675-H1686, 1991.-ATP is normally available in cells at millimolar concentrations and is “buffered” by intracellular pools of other high-energy phosphates, such as creatine phosphate. Thus intracellular [ATP] ([ATPI;) may seem an un...
متن کاملP13: Potassium Channels and Long-Term Potentiation Formation
Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a form of activity-dependent plasticity that occurs during learning. Potassium channels are the most diverse group of all ion channels that related to synaptic plasticity. Small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (SKs) are found in hippocampal CA1 neurons and by inhibiting of postsynaptic potentials are involved in synaptic transmission impairment. ...
