Cell motility is central to tissue homeostasis in health and disease, and there is hardly any
cell in the body that is not motile at a given point in its life cycle. Important physiological …

Fatty acid infiltration of the myocardium, acquired in metabolic disorders (obesity, type-2
diabetes, insulin resistance, and hyperglycemia) is critically associated with the …

Voltage-dependent potassium (Kv) channels play a pivotal role in the modulation of
macrophage physiology. Macrophages are professional antigen-presenting cells and …

The expanding roles of macrophages in physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms
now include normal tissue homeostasis, tissue repair and regeneration, including neuronal …

Voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channels are involved in the immune response. Kv1. 3 is highly
expressed in activated macrophages and T-effector memory cells of autoimmune disease …

Kv1. 3 activity is determined by raft association. In addition to Kv1. 3, leukocytes also
express Kv1. 5, and both channels control physiological responses. Because the oligomeric …

Cell motility is a prerequisite for the creation of new life, and it is required for maintaining the
integrity of an organism. Under pathological conditions,“too much” motility may cause …

Cell motility is an essential feature of life. It is essential for reproduction, propagation,
embryonic development, and healing processes such as wound closure and a successful …

Macrophages are the predominant component of innate immunity, which is an important
protective barrier of our body. Macrophages are present in all organs and tissues of the …

For the last 20 years, knowledge of the physiological role of voltage-dependent potassium
channels (Kv) in the immune system has grown exponentially. Leukocytes express a limited …
