Loss of the Kv1.1 potassium channel promotes pathologic sharp waves and high frequency oscillations in in vitro hippocampal slices
In human disease, channelopathies involving functional reduction of the delayed rectifier potassium channel α-subunit Kv1.1 – either by mutation or autoimmune inhibition – result in temporal lobe epilepsy. Kv1.1 is prominently expressed in the axons of the hippocampal tri-synaptic pathway, suggestin...
