Researchers discover that KCNQ2/3 potassium channels must be functional to reach their proper location in the brain, with major implications for treating epilepsy.
Potassium KCNQ2/3 channels are crucial for suppressing the excitability of brain cells, or neurons. When these channels don't work properly, they can cause specific types of epilepsy like benign ...
Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain’s neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons. For the first time, DZNE researchers have observed an ...
