Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
16317062 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
17854350 The Kv1.3 potassium channel, postsynaptic density protein 95, and insulin receptor serine kinase co-localize to regulate membrane excitability and synaptic transmission at critical locations in the olfactory bulb.
17878353 Specific Kv1.3 blockers may be beneficial in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis in which effector memory T cells are found in the target organ
17582781 Ketanserin acts directly on the open state of the Kv1.3 channel, reducing current flow. Augmentation of extracellular [K] enhances current flow through the channel.
17242956 Cholesterol depletion causes significant, reversible alterations in the Kv1.3 channel function in Jurkat cells.
12909584 Of 13 voltage-gated K+ (Kv) potassium channels sought, only Kv1.3 mRNA was present. Kv1.3 sets the resting potential of the cells, but it is not required for Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis.
12807917 Fas ligand increases Kv1.3 channel activity through the same canonical apoptotic signaling cascade that is required for potassium efflux, cell shrinkage, and apoptosis
17088564 T cells with other antigen specificities from these patients, or autoreactive T cells from healthy individuals and disease controls, express low levels of Kv1.3 and are predominantly naive or central-memory (T(CM)) cells
12632187 manipulation of membrane cholesterol changed both the kinetic properties of Kv1.3 and steady-state parameters of activation by modifying lipid-protein interactions.
12850541 In different glioma samples investigated for expression of KV1.3 potassium channels, no correlation of expression with glioma entities and malignancy grades is evident for KV1.3.
