A novel method for power quality multiple disturbance decomposition based on Independent Component Analysis
(ELSEVIER SCI LTDOXFORD, 2012)
In this paper, a novel method for power quality signal decomposition is proposed based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA). This method aims to decompose the power system signal (voltage or current) into components ...
Gating kinetics of Ca++-activated K+ channels from rat muscle incorporated into planar lipid bilayers: Evidence for two voltage-dependent Ca2+ binding reactions
(1983)
The gating kinetics of a Ca2+-activated K+ channel from adult rat muscle plasma membrane are studied in artificial planar bilayers. Analysis of single-channel fluctuations distinguishes two Ca2+- and voltage-dependent ...
Possible thiol group involvement in intracellular pH effect on low- conductance Ca2+-dependent K+ channels
(1997)
We have studied the effect of intracellular pH (pH(i)) shifts on the activity of Ca2+-dependent, inwardly rectifying K+ channels of HeLa cells. Recordings of macroscopic currents in symmetrical 145 mM K+ and internal pH ...
Does Erythropoietin Regulate TRPC Channels in Red Blood Cells?
(Karger, 2017-05)
Background: Cation channels play an essential role in red blood cells (RBCs) ion homeostasis. One set of ion channels are the transient receptor potential channels of canonical type (TRPC channels). The abundance of these ...
Intracellular mechanisms modulating gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-06)
The pedunculopontine nucleus is a part of the reticular activating system, and is active during waking and REM sleep. Previous results showed that all PPN cells tested fired maximally at gamma frequencies when depolarized. ...
N-methylaspartate-activated calcium channels in rat brain cortex slices. Effect of calcium channel blockers and of inhibitory and depressant substances
(1986)
N-Methyl-dl-aspartate, l-glutamate, kainate and dl-homocysteate were found to increase the initial rate and the maximal uptake of 45Ca into the non-inulin space of rat brain cortex slices incubated in vitro. The ...
Membrane-mediated action of the endocannabinoid anandamide on membrane proteins: implications for understanding the receptor-independent mechanism
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-01-27)
Endocannabinoids are amphiphilic molecules that play crucial neurophysiological functions acting as lipid messengers. Antagonists and knockdown of the classical CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors do not completely abolish ...
Apical sorting of a voltage- and Ca2+-activated K+ channel alpha-subunit in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells is independent of N-glycosylation
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2000-11-21)
The voltage- and Ca2+-acttiated K+ (K-V,K-Ca) channel is expressed in a variety of polarized epithelial cells seemingly displaying a tissue-dependent apical-to-basolateral regionalization, as revealed by electrophysiology. ...
Lipid bilayer-atomic force microscopy combined platform records simultaneous electrical and topological changes of the TRP channel Polycystin-2 (TRPP2)
(Public Library of Science, 2018-08)
Ion channels are transmembrane proteins that mediate ion transport across biological membranes. Ion channel function is traditionally characterized by electrical parameters acquired with techniques such as patch-clamping ...
