Effects of internal chloride on ATP-sensitive K-channels in mouse pancreatic beta-cells.

The effect of internal Cl- on the K-ATP channel of pancreatic beta-cells was examined. Reducing Cl- from 140mM to 14mM potentiated channel activity (NPO) approximately 4.5 fold in 60% of patches but was without effect in 40% of patches. The Ki for channel inhibition by ATP was not changed. The inhib...
