Abstract: Astrocyte dysfunction emerges early in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and may contribute to its pathology and progression. Recently, the voltage gated potassium channel KV3.4 subunit, which underlies the fast-inactivating K+ currents, has been recognized to be… read more here.

Abstract: Plasma membrane ion channels modulate the physiological functions of virtually all cell types, including vascular smooth muscle cells (myocytes) [1]. Many ion channels are composed of both pore-forming and auxiliary subunits, with the conventional view… read more here.
