Pharmacological inhibition of BKCa channels induces a specific social deficit in adult C57BL6/J mice.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variants in large conductance voltage and calcium sensitive potassium (BKCa) channels have associations with neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder, fragile X syndrome, and intellectual disability. In the case of fragile X syndrome, early preclinical studies suggest that BKCa channels may be a promising treatment target for neurodevelopmental disorders. While BKCa channel...
