  • Characterization of acid sensing ion channel (ASIC) in mouse olfactory bulb

    Creator:
    Kratzer, Eric Martin
    Abstract:
    This study examined the role of acid- sensing ion channels (ASICs) in interneuron synaptic modulation. ASICS are ultra fine discriminators of acidic conditions in the neuronal microenvironment. Each ASIC subunit isoform has innate, subtly different electrophysiological properties and tissue distributions. Structurally, ASICs may form homo- or heteromeric channels, yielding combinatorial...
