KATP channels and islet hormone secretion: New insights and controversies

ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K ATP channels) link cell metabolism to electrical activity by controlling the cell membrane potential. They participate in many physiological processes but have a particularly important role in systemic glucose homeostasis by regulating hormone secretion from pancr...
