abstract：:A key feature of O2 sensing by chemoreceptor tissues is the hypoxic inhibition of K+ channels. However, mechanisms coupling a fall of pO2 to channel closure differ between tissues: O2 regulation of K+ channels in chemoreceptive neuroepithelial bodies and their immortal counterparts, H146 cells, involves altered reacti...
