Pentameric Ligand-Gated Ion Channels as Pharmacological Targets Against Chronic Pain.

abstract：:CLC-K channels belong to the CLC gene family, which comprises both Cl(-) channels and Cl(-)/H(+) antiporters. They form homodimers which additionally co-assemble with the small protein barttin. In the kidney, they are involved in NaCl reabsorption; in the inner ear they are important for endolymph production. Mutation...
