Molecular heterogeneity of the voltage-gated fast transient outward K+ current, I(Af), in mammalian neurons.
Recently, we identified four kinetically distinct voltage-gated K(+) currents, I(Af), I(As), I(K), and I(SS), in rat superior cervical ganglion (SCG) neurons and demonstrated that I(Af) and I(As) are differentially expressed in type I (I(Af), I(K), I(SS)), type II (I(Af), I(As), I(K), I(SS)), and type III (I(K), I(SS)) SCG cells. In addition, we reported that I(Af) is eliminated in most ( appro...
متن کاملTransient Outward Current?
To gain insight into the molecular basis of cardiac repolarization, we have expressed K' channels cloned from ventricular myocardium in Xenopus oocytes. A recently identified human cardiac K' channel isoform (human Kvl.4) has properties similar to the 4-aminopyridine-sensitive calcium-insensitive component of the cardiac transient outward current. However, these channels recovered from inactiva...
متن کاملRole of the Transient Outward Current
Background. Acute ischemia is known to produce more severe electrophysiological disturbances in canine ventricular epicardium than endocardium, although the mechanism for the differential sensitivity is still unresolved. Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of a prominent transient outward current (It.) in ventricular epicardium but not endocardium. The present study was designed to te...
متن کاملCell cycle-related changes in transient K(+) current density in the GH3 pituitary cell line.
Our aim was to determine whether the expression of K(+) currents is related to the cell cycle in the excitable GH3 pituitary cell line. K(+) currents were studied by electrophysiology, and bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) labeling was used to compare their expression in cells thereafter identified as being in the S or non-S phase of the cell cycle. We show that the peak density of the transient outward...
متن کاملTransient outward potassium current in ICC.
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are the pacemakers of the gut, initiating slow-wave activity. Several ion channels have been identified that contribute to the depolarization phase of the slow wave. Our aim was to contribute to knowledge about the identity and role of ICC potassium channels in pacemaking. Here we describe a transient outward potassium current in cell-attached patches of ICC. T...
