steady-state fast inactivationEpilepsy is a brain disorder characterized by seizures and convulsions. The basis of epilepsy is an increase in neuronal excitability that, in some cases, may be caused by functional defects in neuronal voltage gated sodium channels, Nav1.1 and Nav1.2. The effects of...

Voltage-gated sodium channels (NaV) are responsible for the rapid depolarization of many excitable cells. They readily inactivate, a process where currents diminish after milliseconds of channel opening. They are also targets for a multitude of disease-causing mutations, many of which have been shown...
Action potential generation is governed by the opening, inactivation, and recovery of voltage-gated sodium channels. A channel's voltage-sensing and pore-forming α subunit bears an intrinsic fast inactivation particle that mediates both onset of inactivation upon membrane depolarization and rapid recover...

Voltage-gated sodium channels and metastatic disease Voltage-gated Na+ channels (VGSCs) are macromolecular protein complexes containing a pore-forming α subunit and smaller non-pore-forming β subunits. VGSC... Brackenbury,J William - 《Channels》 被引量: 145发表: 2012年 Slow inactivation in v...
Voltage-gated sodium channel alpha subunits (VGSC, term that will be used throughout this article when not referring to a particular isoform) were discovered more than 60 years ago. They have been extensively characterized for the electrogenic role they play in neurons (NaV1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.6,...
Insights into Gating and Inactivation BacNaVs, just like other voltage-gated channels, respond to membrane potential changes that cause the channel to inhabit non-conductive (closed and inactivated) and conductive (open) states. Thus far, electrophysiological studies have characterized BacNaV homologs fr...
state. By analogy to fast inactivating voltage-gated sodium channels where hyperpolarization allows channels to rapidly exit inactivation, we asked whether positive voltages could reset PIEZO1 channels by applying constant pressure pulses at alternating negative and positive voltages (Fig.2c). Using this...
