The exact location of an ion channel on the axo-somato-dendritic surface of a nerve cell
crucially affects its functional impact. Recent high-resolution immunolocalization …

Following the astonishing molecular diversity of voltage-gated ion channels that was
revealed in the past few decades, the ion channel repertoire expressed by neurons has …

An ion channel's function depends largely on its location and density on neurons. Here we
used high-resolution immunolocalization to determine the subcellular distribution of the …

The intrinsic electrical properties and the synaptic input-output relationships of neurons are
governed by the action of voltage-dependent ion channels. The localization of specific …

Voltage-gated ion channels have to be at the right place in the right number to endow
individual neurons with their specific character. Their biophysical properties together with …

Potassium channels are a family of ion channels that govern the intrinsic electrical
properties of neurons in the brain. Molecular cloning has revealed over 100 genes encoding …

Neurons are an extremely diverse group of excitable cells with a wide variety of
morphologies including complex dendritic trees and very long axons. The electrical …

The maintenance of ion channel homeostasis, or channelostasis, is a complex puzzle in
neurons with extensive dendritic arborization, encompassing a combinatorial diversity of …

Potassium channels (KChs) are the most diverse ion channels, in part due to extensive
combinatorial assembly of a large number of principal and auxiliary subunits into an …

Dendritic spikes signal synaptic integration at remote apical dendritic sites in neocortical
pyramidal neurons in vitro. Do dendritic spikes have a salient signaling role under in vivo …
