Enhancement of Outward Potassium Current May Participate in β-Amyloid Peptide-Induced Cortical Neuronal Death
In light of recent evidence implicating the upregulation of outward K+current in mediating several forms of neuronal apoptosis, we tested the hypothesis that such an upregulation might specifically contribute to the pathogenesis of β-amyloid peptide (Aβ)-induced neuronal death. Exposure to Aβ fragme...
