The β1 subunit of the Ca2+-sensitive K+ channel protects against hypertension

  • Text
  • PDF
Abstract

Previous animal studies have demonstrated that the loss of the β1 subunit of the large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BK) channel leads to hypertension. A new study demonstrates that a gain in β1 subunit function is associated with protection against diastolic hypertension in humans, underscoring the importance of the β1 subunit and the BK channel in the regulation of vascular resistance.

Citation information
This citation data is accumulated from CrossRef, which receives citation information from participating publishers, including this journal. Not all publishers participate in CrossRef, so this information is not comprehensive. Additionally, data may not reflect the most current citations to this article, and the data may differ from citation information available from other sources (for example, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Scopus).
