The emergence of ultrafast frame rates in ultrasonic imaging has been recently made possible by the development of new imaging modalities such as transient elastography. Data acquisition rates… (More)
In mammalian cardiac cells, a variety of transient or sustained K+ currents contribute to the repolarization of action potentials. There are two main components of the delayed-rectifier sustained K+… (More)
TASK is a new member of the recently recognized TWIK K+ channel family. This 395 amino acid polypeptide has four transmembrane segments and two P domains. In adult human, TASK transcripts are found… (More)

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2) is an autosomal dominant disorder. The 3 recognized subtypes include MEN 2A, characterized by medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), pheochromocytoma… (More)
To facilitate the systematic description of catatonic signs, we developed a catatonia rating examination, rating scale and screening instrument. We constructed a 23-item rating scale and a truncated… (More)
Aplysia S-type K+ channels of sensory neurons play a dominant role in presynaptic facilitation and behavioural sensitization. They are closed by serotonin via cAMP-dependent phosphorylation, whereas… (More)
Human TWIK-1, which has been cloned recently, is a new structural type of weak inward rectifier K+ channel. Here we report the structural and functional properties of TREK-1, a mammalian… (More)
A new human weakly inward rectifying K+ channel, TWIK-1, has been isolated. This channel is 336 amino acids long and has four transmembrane domains. Unlike other mammalian K+ channels, it contains… (More)
A complementary DNA encoding a novel K+ channel, called TASK-2, was isolated from human kidney and its gene was mapped to chromosome 6p21. TASK-2 has a low sequence similarity to other two pore… (More)
