Discovery and characterization of G protein-gated, inwardly-rectifying, potassium channel modulators Kozek, Krystian Andrzej (2018-10-16)Department: PharmacologyG protein-gated, inwardly-rectifying, potassium (K+) (GIRK) channels are important regulators of cellular excitability throughout the body. GIRK channels are composed of four subunits and exist as homomeric and heteromeric ...

Azumaya, Caleigh Mariko (2018-12-19)Department: Molecular Physiology and BiophysicsGlutamatergic neurotransmission is a set of signal cascades that result in propagation of the action potential from the presynaptic to the postsynaptic neuron. There are fast signals controlled by the ionotropic glutamate ...
