C-reactive protein enhances LOX-1 expression in human aortic endothelial cells: relevance of LOX-1 to C-reactive protein-induced endothelial dysfunction.

abstract：:Many members of the two-pore-domain potassium (K(+)) channel family have been detected in the mammalian heart but the endogenous correlates of these channels still have to be identified. We investigated whether I(KAA), a background K(+) current activated by negative pressure (stretch) and by arachidonic acid (AA) and ...
