Journal ArticleDOI

Intrinsic gating of inward rectifier in bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells in the presence or absence of internal Mg2

TL;DR: Inward rectifier (IR) currents in bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells have an intrinsic gating mechanism that is not due to Mg block, and the voltage dependence of alpha and beta shifted along with EK, as is characteristic of IR channels in other cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

The noninvasive respiratory care unit. Patterns of use and financial implications.

TL;DR: The NRCU represents a cost-effective approach to the care of substantial numbers of patients requiring specialized respiratory care, and daily costs of care for mechanically ventilated patients were $1,976 lower in the NRCu than in the medical intensive care unit (MICU).
Journal ArticleDOI

Ion channel expression in PMA-differentiated human THP-1 macrophages.

TL;DR: Levels of mRNA coding for these K+ channels were found to change upon differentiation in the same direction as did channel expression: IRK1 mRNA increased at least 5-fold, and Kv1.3 mRNA decreased on average 7-fold.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potassium currents in rat type II alveolar epithelial cells.

TL;DR: Type II alveolar epithelial cells isolated from adult rats and grown in primary culture were studied using the whole‐cell configuration of the gigohm‐seal voltage clamp technique, suggesting that type II cell membranes in vitro are irregular.
