    Respir Res 7:31. 2006
    ..We therefore investigated a possible role of KCNQ channels in regulating the function of pulmonary arteries by determining the ability of the selective KCNQ channel blockers, linopirdine and XE991, to promote pulmonary vasoconstriction...
  2. ncbi Two-pore potassium channels in the cardiovascular system

    Faculty of Life Sciences, The University of Manchester, Floor 2, Core Technology Facility, 46 Grafton Street, Manchester M139NT, UK
    Eur Biophys J 38:305-18. 2009
    ..As their physiological roles emerge, the K(2P) family of potassium channels may offer promising therapeutic solutions to target cardiovascular diseases...

    Cardiovasc Diabetol 8:4. 2009
    ..Diabetes was recently shown to be linked to an increased prevalence of pulmonary hypertension. The aim of this study was to determine how the pharmacological reactivity of intrapulmonary arteries is altered in a rat model of diabetes...

    J Physiol 589:3231-46. 2011
    ..The Em was, however, depolarised in comparison with other species.Mouse IKN was much smaller than in rat and showed no sensitivity to pH. The results imply that TASK-1 does not form a functional channel in mouse PASMCs...
