- W1993615180 abstract "Potassium channels play an important role in electrical signaling of excitable cells such as neurons, cardiac myocytes, and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In particular, the KCNQ (Kv7) family of voltage-activated K(+) channels functions to stabilize negative resting membrane potentials and thereby opposes electrical excitability. Of the five known members of the mammalian Kv7 family, Kv7.1 was originally recognized for its role in cardiac myocytes, where it contributes to repolarization of the cardiac action potential. Kv7.2 to Kv7.5 were first discovered in neurons, in which they play a well characterized role in neurotransmitter-stimulated action potential firing. Over the past 5 years, important new roles for Kv7 channels have been identified. Kv7 channels have been found to be expressed in VSMCs from several vascular beds where they contribute to the regulation of vascular tone. There is evidence that Kv7.5 channels in VSMCs are targeted by the hormone vasopressin to mediate its physiological vasoconstrictor actions and evidence that neuronal Kv7 channels in the baroreceptors of the aortic arch adjust the sensitivity of the mechanosensitive neurons to changes in arterial blood pressure. These newly identified physiological roles for Kv7 channels in the cardiovascular system warrant increased attention because pharmacological modulators of this family of channels are being used clinically to treat a variety of neurological disorders. This raises questions about the cardiovascular side effects associated with existing therapies, but there is also obvious potential to capitalize on the established and evolving pharmacology of these channels to develop new therapies for cardiovascular diseases." @default.
