Description

Because of the highly significant and widely recognized roles of ion channels in physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and toxicology, the term ion channel has now become a household word in the biomedical sciences. This volume covers preparations and techniques for the study of various ion channels. Both voltage-gated and ligand-gated ion channels of neurons, axons, and cardiac and smooth muscles are covered. It includes not only patch clamp techniques but molecular biology and imaging techniques as well. Key Features * Comprehensive protocols included for the study of: * Ion channels using patch-clamp, molecular biology, and imaging techniques * Role of ion channels in physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and toxicology * Specific ion channels of specific tissues
