Activation of the Large-Conductance, Voltage, and Ca(2+)- Activated K(+) (BK) Channel in Acute Spinal Cord Injury in the Wistar Rat Is Neuroprotective
Context/Objectives: Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in significant neuronal and glial cell death resulting in impaired neurological and motor function. Uncontrolled Ca(2+) entry results in excitotoxicity and cell death. In this study, we examine the use of a BK channel activator, Isopimaric acid (I...
