Probing the contribution of IKs to canine ventricular repolarization: key role for beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Interleukin (IL)-6-related cytokines share gp130 as the signal-transducing protein. Downstream of gp130, two signal-transducing pathways have been recognized, the Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway and the Ras-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. To d...
