Ion channels in microbes.
Studies of ion channels have for long been dominated by the animalcentric, if not anthropocentric, view of physiology. The structures and activities of ion channels had, however, evolved long before the appearance of complex multicellular organisms on earth. The diversity of ion channels existing in cellular membranes of prokaryotes is a good example. Although at first it may appear as a parado...
متن کاملO 13: Ion Channels in Autoimmune Neurodegeneration
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by widespread inflammation, focal demyelination and a variable degree of axonal and neuronal loss. Ionic conductances regulate T cell activation as well as neuronal function and thus have been found to play a crucial role in MS pathogenesis. Since present therapeutical approaches are only parti...

متن کاملIon channels in epilepsy.
Neuronal excitability is determined by the flux of ions through ion channels. Many types of ion channels are expressed in the central nervous system, each responsible for its own aspect of neuronal excitability, from postsynaptic depolarization to action potential generation to neurotransmitter release. These mechanisms are tightly regulated to create a balance between excitation and inhibition...
متن کاملIon Channels in Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma is the most common primary brain tumor with the most dismal prognosis. It is characterized by extensive invasion, migration, and angiogenesis. Median survival is only 15 months due to this behavior, rendering focal surgical resection ineffective and adequate radiotherapy impossible. At this moment, several ion channels have been implicated in glioblastoma proliferation, migration, ...
