Abstract excerpt
The ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel directly regulates the microglia-mediated inflammatory response following CNS injury. To determine the putative role of the KATP channel in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) pathology, we investigated whether ALS induces changes in KATP channel expression in the spinal cord and motor cortex. We also characterized new functional variants of human ABCC8, ABCC9, KCNJ8,...
