Department of Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, University of London, London, UK
J Physiol 589:6029-38. 2011..This may be important for their relative contributions to physiological processes such as synaptic plasticity as well as patho-physiological conditions such as epilepsy...
Functional significance of axonal Kv7 channels in hippocampal pyramidal neuronsMala M Shah
Department of Pharmacology, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, United Kingdom
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 105:7869-74. 2008..These results indicate that axonal Kv7 channels, by controlling axonal RMP and action potential threshold, are fundamental for regulating the inherent firing properties of CA1 hippocampal neurons...
Dendritic ion channel trafficking and plasticityMala M Shah
Department of Pharmacology, The School of Pharmacy, University of London, London, WC1N 1AX, UK
Trends Neurosci 33:307-16. 2010..We also consider the implications for neuronal function. We argue that to gain an insight into neuronal information processing it is essential to understand the regulation of dendritic ion channel expression and properties...

Nat Neurosci 14:478-86. 2011..2 subunit. This represents a previously unknown mechanism by which HCN channels regulate synaptic strength and thereby neural information processing and network excitability...
Hippocalcin: a new solution to an old puzzleDavid A Brown
Department of Pharmacology, University College London, Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT, United Kingdom
Neuron 53:467-8. 2007..In this issue of Neuron, Tzingounis et al. now show that calcium binding to hippocalcin, a member of the NCS family, is one of the necessary steps involved in production of the sAHP...
HCN1 channels: a new therapeutic target for depressive disorders?Mala M Shah
UCL School of Pharmacy, University College, London WC1N 1AX, UK
Sci Signal 5:pe44. 2012..Recent evidence suggests that these channels may also be therapeutic targets for treatment of depressive disorders...

Department of Pharmacology, University College London, London WC1E 6BT, United Kingdom
J Neurophysiol 87:2983-9. 2002..The activation of these channels may, however, depend on their location relative to NMDA receptors as well as on the spatial Ca2+ buffering within individual neurons...
Seizure-induced plasticity of h channels in entorhinal cortical layer III pyramidal neuronsMala M Shah
Division of Neuroscience, Baylor College of Medicine, One Baylor Plaza, Houston, TX 77030, USA
Neuron 44:495-508. 2004..Our results suggest that dendritic I(h) plays an important role in determining the excitability of EC layer III neurons and their associated neural networks...
