Ion channels regulate the selective flow of ions across cellular membranes, underpinning the electrical signalling that drives cardiac rhythm and modulating pathways that control cell proliferation, ...
The ion channel PIEZO2 doesn't just convey touch stimuli. It also plays a key role in the development of coronary vessels, a team led by Annette Hammes from the Max Delbrück Center reports in Nature ...
MIT engineers have developed a noninvasive pacemaker that stimulates the heart using ultrasound. The design could one day ...
Cells send electrical impulses throughout the body, but electrophysiologists struggled to tune into these signals until the patch clamp technique was developed. Although biophysicist Bernard Katz from ...
