Effect of membrane environment at high temperature on voltage-dependence of delayed rectifier K~（+） channel in hypothalamus neurons / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM:To observe the effects of high temperature on voltage - dependence of delayed rectifier K+ channel (Ik) in hypothalamus neurons. METHODS: The date recording from cell - attached patches of patch - clamp technique. RESULTS: With temperature raising, shift of voltage dependence may be mediated at different degree, while higher temperature might weaken and depressed. CONCLUSION: Shift of voltage dependence likely contribut- ed to the body fever and heatstroke.
