Of antisense, antibodies, K+ channels, and jejunal metabolism
This month's installment of Generally Physiological focuses on endogenous regulation of K + channels by anti-sense, K + channel targeting by anti-bodies, and the effects of gastric by pass surgery on metabolism. A decrease in the abundance of voltage dependent K + channels in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons can result in enhanced excitability and aberrant firing, contributing to neu-ropathic...
متن کاملThe role of ATP-dependent K+ channels in antinociception, tolerance and morphine dependence
Tolerance and dependence are two main problems that have limited morphine administration as an analgesic drug and they might be as a result of changes in the number and affinity of receptors, dysfunction of adenylate cyclase, impaired coupling between activated µ receptor and K+ channels, and changes in the K+ and Ca2+ channels. There are several reports concerning the role of some of these...
متن کاملDilated and defunct K channels in the absence of K+.
Potassium ions are vital for maintaining functionality of K channels. In their absence, many K channel types enter a long-lasting defunct condition characterized by absence of conductance and drastic changes in gating current. We show that channels pass through a dilated condition with altered selectivity as they are becoming defunct. To characterize these abnormalities we examined gating and i...
متن کاملMicrobial K+ Channels
A survey of the currently available genomes shows that K channels are found in most free-living bacteria, archaea, and protists, indicating early evolution before the divergences of the three major domains of life. Though vertically descended from the primordial K channels, more recent lateral transfers of K channel genes must also have occurred. Variations in the motifs of transmembrane or cyt...
متن کامل-activated K Channels
BK channels modulate neurotransmitter release due to their activation by voltage and Ca 2 . Intracellular Mg 2 also modulates BK channels in multiple ways with opposite effects on channel function. Previous single-channel studies have shown that Mg 2 blocks the pore of BK channels in a voltage-dependent manner. We have confirmed this result by studying macroscopic currents of the mslo1 channel....
