Drugs that can cause low potassium levels (Hypokalemia) Some medications may cause your blood level of potassium to decrease, which is known as hypokalemia. The following drugs may cause low potassium: Diuretics, such as: Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) Thalitone (chlorthalidone) Lasix (furosemide) Medica...
However, excessive intake of potassium, including from potassium citrate, can lead to hyperkalemia (elevated potassium levels in the blood), which can cause heart arrhythmias, muscle weakness, and other serious health issues. There is no evidence to suggest that potassium citrate is carcinogenic. As...
27,28,29,47,48. We found that CBL1/9 and CBL2/3 respond to low-K+stress by increasing protein abundance (Fig.1). For increased levels of CBLs to have functional relevance, we speculate that their partner kinases, CIPK9 and CIPK23, may also respond to K+deficiency in the similar man...
Potassium levels are not well-regulated in kidney disease. Both the disease and some medications used to treat kidney disease may cause potassium buildup in the body. Hence, potassium intake should be reduced in a kidney disease diet. Many fruits, including melons, bananas, oranges, prunes, and...
29,30 Given a sufficient number of participants, within-individual day-to-day variability does not affect estimates of population means.6 Individuals with “usual” high or low levels of intake or excretion, however, can have even higher or lower levels based on a single 24-hour urinary ...
This research illustrates the seasonal fluctuations in soil test K levels that occur naturally in these soils and how precipitation and clay content may influence these fluctuations.doi:10.1002/agg2.20058Andrea B.

Studies of the effect of histamine onsynaptic plasticityare in their infancy. However, histamine has the potential to modulate or cause plastic change by a variety of mechanisms. The histamine H1receptor is linked to increases of intracellular calcium levels and to PKC, both of which have been ...
To understand the association between sodium and potassium consumption levels, hypertension and knowledge, attitudes and behaviors (KAB) toward salt and the commitment to effective sodium reduction and potassium supplementation to achieve the purpose of suppressing hypertension. A stratified multistage random...
To investigate how the presence of ions may influence the ionization state of KcsA, the absolute pKA values were recalculated in the presence of different configurations of K+ ions within the channel. As might be anticipated, adding K+ ions to the channel increases the probability of ionization...
and we did not often encounter cells with GKgreater than 2 nS/pF. Therefore, it is difficult to comment on the relationship betweenGKand AP properties at higher levels of K2Pexpression, but the rate of AP rise peaks in the region of 0.5 nS/pF. It is also clear from these data that,...
