ERG K + channels mediate a major component of action potential repolarization in lymphatic muscle

2023-04-03

Abstract excerpt

Smooth muscle cells in the walls of collecting lymphatic vessels fire spontaneous action potentials (APs), which conduct rapidly over the muscle layer to initiate contractions that propel lymph. Several ion channels have been implicated in the currents underlying the AP spike and the preceding diastolic depolarization, but the molecular identities of K + channels involved in AP repolarization are unknown. Based on...
