Two types of potassium channel regulated by ATP in pancreatic B cells isolated from a type-2 diabetic human.

Two types of K channel regulated by ATP were observed in pancreatic beta cells from a type-2 diabetic man. One type had a conductance of 67 pS at -70 mV in symmetrical 140 mM KCl and was inhibited by intracellular ATP with a half-maximal concentration of 40 microM. ATP inhibition was antagonised by...
