Kv4.3 Small Molecules and Peptides

Potassium channels contribute to maintaining cell volume, membrane potential, neuronal excitability and the secretion of transmitters, salt and hormones. Two families of potassium channels have been identified. One family includes the inwardly rectifying potassium channels whereas, the other family includes: voltage gating (Kv); big conductance, calcium activated (BKca); and small conductance, calcium activated (SK) potassium channels. Voltage gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most ...
