Emerging Roles of Astrocyte Kir4.1 Channels in the Pathogenesis and Treatment of Brain Diseases

Inwardly rectifying Kir4.1 channels in astrocytes mediate spatial potassium (K(+)) buffering, a clearance mechanism for excessive extracellular K(+), in tripartite synapses. In addition to K(+) homeostasis, astrocytic Kir4.1 channels also play an essential role in regulating extracellular glutamate...
