A Structural Rearrangement in the Sodium Channel Pore Linked to Slow Inactivation and Use Dependence

Voltage-gated sodium (Na(+)) channels are a fundamental target for modulating excitability in neuronal and muscle cells. When depolarized, Na(+) channels may gradually enter long-lived, slow-inactivated conformational states, causing a cumulative loss of function. Although the structural motifs that...
