Physiological Roles and Therapeutic Potential of Ca2+ Activated Potassium Channels in the Nervous System

Physiological Roles and Therapeutic Potential of Ca2+ Activated Potassium Channels in the Nervous System

Within the potassium ion channel family, calcium activated potassium (KCa) channels are unique in their ability to couple intracellular Ca2+ signals to membrane potential variations. KCa channels are diversely distributed throughout the central nervous system and play fundamental roles ranging from...
