The interplay between ion channels and T cell immunology has emerged as a pivotal area in both basic and translational research. Ion channels, particularly voltage‐gated potassium channels such as Kv1 ...

Ion channels play a crucial role in many cellular processes, including neuronal communication, muscle contraction or cell proliferation. Most multi subunit ion channels exist in two functional states, ...

Researchers have announced a series of major scientific advances spanning astronomy, biology, and medicine. Highlights include a high-precision cosmology tool, discovery of a potassium-sensing ion ...

Cells send electrical impulses throughout the body, but electrophysiologists struggled to tune into these signals until the patch clamp technique was developed. Although biophysicist Bernard Katz from ...

A new understanding of how drugs are taken in by cells could impact the way drugs are administered to patients. In an Aug. 30 study published in Nature that details structural changes of the Transient ...

Researchers have revealed how a channel that controls cellular potassium levels causes metabolic rewiring in breast cancer cells, promoting tumour growth. Researchers have revealed how a channel that ...

The cell membrane has numerous channels for the transport of various substances, including ions, between the cell and its environment. Ion transport determines the ion exchange rate (or the ...

Technology Improving a Range of Studies from Ion Channels to Pathogen Detection Multiplex assays are based on single-analyte tests or low-to-midplex procedures that typically predate the rise of their ...

Every year, sepsis kills roughly 11 million people worldwide, more than lung cancer and heart attacks combined. Despite decades of research, no drug exists that directly strengthens the immune ...

Axxam S.p.A., a premier provider of integrated early drug discovery services, and B'SYS GmbH, a specialist in ion channel biology, are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration focused on enabling ...
