- W1988179473 abstract "Multiple K + channels are expressed in the respiratory epithelium lining airways and alveoli. Of the three main classes [ 1) voltage-dependent or Ca 2+ -activated, 6-transmembrane domains (TMD), 2) 2-pores 4-TMD, and 3) inward-rectified 2-TMD K + channels], almost 40 different transcripts have already been detected in the lung. The physiological and functional significance of this high molecular diversity of lung epithelial K + channels is intriguing. As detailed in the present review, K + channels are located at both the apical and basolateral membranes in the respiratory epithelium, where they mediate K + currents of diverse electrophysiological and regulatory properties. The main recognized function of K + channels is to control membrane potential and to maintain the driving force for transepithelial ion and liquid transport. In this manner, KvLQT1, KCa and K ATP channels, for example, contribute to the control of airway and alveolar surface liquid composition and volume. Thus, K + channel activation has been identified as a potential therapeutic strategy for the resolution of pathologies characterized by ion transport dysfunction. K + channels are also involved in other key functions in lung physiology, such as oxygen-sensing, inflammatory responses and respiratory epithelia repair after injury. The purpose of this review is to summarize and discuss what is presently known about the molecular identity of lung K + channels with emphasis on their role in lung epithelial physiology." @default.
