## Abstract The ATP‐sensitive potassium (K~ATP~) channel is expressed in most excitable tissues and plays a critical role in numerous physiological processes by coupling intracellular energetics to electrical activity. The channel is comprised of four Kir6.x subunits associated with four regulatory
In 1946 von Euler identified the major transmitter of sympathetic nerve fibers, norepinephrine (NE), and about a decade later Vogt (1954) provided the first evidence that NE may also serve as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). Since that time, a literal explosion in CNS neurotra
Two ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, ABCG5 and ABCG8, have been proposed to limit sterol absorption and to promote biliary sterol excretion in humans. To test this hypothesis, a P1 clone containing the human ABCG5 and ABCG8 genes was used to generate transgenic mice. The transgenes were expr
In the rat, it is generally accepted that the primary site of estrogen's stimulatory (positive) effects on serum LH is the preoptic area-anterior hypothalamus (POA/ AH). In contrast, the primary site of estrogen's inhibitory (negative) effects on serum LH levels has not been conclusively identified.
