Diseases caused by voltage-gated ion channels.

Abstract excerpt

Ion channels regulate the transfer of ions between the outer and the inner surface of the cell membrane. The opening of ion channels may be triggered by the binding of a ligand or variations in the membrane potential. Voltage-gated ion channels are an important class of such channels, that are involved in the generation and propagation of action potentials and play a key role in cell to cell communication. As a...
