Differential structure of atrial and ventricular KATP: atrial KATP channels require SUR1.

The isoform-specific structure of the ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel endows it with differential fundamental properties, including physiological activation and pharmacology. Numerous studies have convincingly demonstrated that the pore-forming Kir6.2 (KCNJ11) and regulatory SUR2A (ABCC9) subunits are essential elements of the sarcolemmal K(ATP) channel in cardiac ventricular myocytes....

Pharmacological and histochemical distinctions between molecularly defined sarcolemmal KATP channels and native cardiac mitochondrial KATP channels.

A variety of direct and indirect techniques have revealed the existence of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels in the inner membranes of mitochondria. The molecular identity of these mitochondrial KATP (mitoKATP) channels remains unclear. We used a pharmacological approach to distinguish mitoKATP channels from classical, molecularly defined cardiac sarcolemmal KATP (surfaceKATP) channels en...

KATP channels and cardiovascular disease: suddenly a syndrome.

ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels were first discovered in the heart 30 years ago. Reconstitution of KATP channel activity by coexpression of members of the pore-forming inward rectifier gene family (Kir6.1, KCNJ8, and Kir6.2 KCNJ11) with sulfonylurea receptors (SUR1, ABCC8, and SUR2, ABCC9) of the ABCC protein subfamily has led to the elucidation of many details of channel gating and por...

Role of sulfonylurea receptor type 1 subunits of ATP-sensitive potassium channels in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

BACKGROUND Opening of cardiac ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K(ATP) channels) is a well-characterized protective mechanism against ischemia and reperfusion injury. Evidence exists for an involvement of both sarcolemmal and mitochondrial K(ATP) channels in such protection. Classically, cardiac sarcolemmal K(ATP) channels are thought to be composed of Kir6.2 (inward-rectifier potassium channel...

Molecular mechanisms of the inhibitory effects of bupivacaine, levobupivacaine, and ropivacaine on sarcolemmal adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels in the cardiovascular system.

BACKGROUND Sarcolemmal adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels in the cardiovascular system may be involved in bupivacaine-induced cardiovascular toxicity. The authors investigated the effects of local anesthetics on the activity of reconstituted KATP channels encoded by inwardly rectifying potassium channel (Kir6.0) and sulfonylurea receptor (SUR) subunits. METHODS The aut...
