Voltage-gated and ATP-sensitive K+ channels are associated with cell proliferation and tumorigenesis of human glioma

Abstract excerpt

Increasing evidence indicates that potassium (K+) channels play important roles in the growth and development of human cancer. In the present study, we investigated the contribution of and the mechanism by which K+ channels control the proliferation and tumor development of U87-MG human glioma cells. A variety of K+ channel blockers and openers were used to differentiate the critical subtype of K+ channels...
