Biophysical and electropharmacological properties of single mitoKATP channel in rat brain mitochondrial inner membrane

Introduction: Different ATP-sensitive potassium channels have been detected in the mitochondrial inner membrane of cells. They are suggested to be involved in cell processes including cell protection. Here, we characterized the biophysical and electropharmacological properties of a KATP channel in the brain mitochondrial inner membranes. Methods: After removing and homogenizing the rat brain...

A new pROM king for the mitoK(ATP) dance: ROMK takes the lead.

Ischemic heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the developed world, and mechanisms to reduce cardiac ischemic damage are being actively investigated. A potent protective mechanism for the heart is ischemic preconditioning (IPC), a phenomenon in which brief ischemic episodes protect the heart from tissue damage and cell death resulting from subsequent periods of ischemia and reperf...

Connexin 43 acts as a cytoprotective mediator of signal transduction by stimulating mitochondrial K(ATP) channels in mouse cardiomyocytes.

Potassium (K+) channels in the inner mitochondrial membrane influence cell function and survival. Increasing evidence indicates that multiple signaling pathways and pharmacological actions converge on mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ (mitoKATP) channels and PKC to confer cytoprotection against necrotic and apoptotic cell injury. However, the molecular structure of mitoKATP channels remains unreso...

Effect of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel opening on the translocation of protein kinase C epsilon in adult rat ventricular myocytes.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (MitoKATP) channel opening on the translocation of protein kinase C epsilon (PKCε). In addition, we aimed to determine the relationship between PKCε translocation and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). PKCε protein expression in cultured adult rat ventricular myocytes was investigated by immunoflu...
