The field of mitochondrial ion channels has recently seen substantial progress, including the
molecular identification of some of the channels. An integrative approach using genetics …

KATP channels are integral to the functions of many cells and tissues. The use of
electrophysiological methods has allowed for a detailed characterization of KATP channels …

In this review, we summarize our knowledge about mitochondrial potassium channels, with
a special focus on unanswered questions in this field. The following potassium channels …

Mitochondrial potassium channels have been described as important factors in cell pro-life
and death phenomena. The activation of mitochondrial potassium channels, such as ATP …

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become a leading cause of mortality and morbidity
globally, making it an urgent concern. Although some studies have been performed on CVD …

Superoxide (O2·−) production by the NADPH oxidases is implicated in the pathogenesis of
many cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension. We have previously shown that …

Diazoxide has been identified over the past 50 years to have a number of physiological
effects, including lowering the blood pressure and rectifying hypoglycemia. Today it is used …

Background The use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST‐
segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with a mortality rate of 5 …

The present study was designed to investigate whether and how lncRNA-GAS5 regulates
cardiomyocyte apoptosis in MI. MI rat model was established by the left anterior descending …

While there are many reviews which examine the group of proteins known as protein kinase
C (PKC), the focus of this article is to examine the cellular roles of two PKCs that are …
