    Transmembrane Currents in Capillary Endothelial Cells are Modulated by External Mg2+ Ions

    The capillary endothelium of the brain is involved essentially in the preservation of the blood-brain barrier and in the regulation of brain microcirculation. As a biological membrane lining the inner wall of ...

    Metabolic Inhibitors Affect the Conductance of Low Voltage-Activated Calcium Channels in Brain Capillary Endothelial Cells

    The brain capillary endothelium plays an essential role in the preservation of the blood-brain barrier and in the control of blood microcirculation. Since hypoxia (Po2: 20 Torr) increases K+ conductance in brain ...

    Possible Meaning of Different Ionic Changes in the Carotid Body During Hypoxia

    It is well known that the carotid body, a peripheral chemoreceptor located near the carotid sinus, is able to detect gas changes (PO2, PCO2/pH) in arterial blood composition and transduce them into nerve signals ...
