LEP activates KCNMA1. 13 / 13

reach
"As BK channel activation by leptin involves a membrane delimited process, and leptin driven PI 3-kinase activation results in a localized, membrane associated increase in phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PtdIns (3,4,5) P 3; XREF_BIBR), leptin signaling via this route is likely to result in a highly compartmentalized reorganization of actin filaments."

sparser
"However, in contrast to the present study, a PI 3-kinase driven process mediates actin filament disruption and BK channel activation by leptin ( xref )."

sparser
"In conclusion, our results suggest that leptin-dependent BK channel activation is a fundamental step in the neuroprotective effects triggered by this adipokine against NMDA-induced cortical neuronal degeneration."

reach
"In parallel with the actions of leptin on K ATP channels (Harvey et al., 2000b), the ability of leptin to modulate BK channel activity requires stimulation of a PI 3-kinase-driven process (Shanley et [MISSING/INVALID CREDENTIALS: limited to 200 char for Elsevier]"

reach
"Leptin induced BK channel activation in neurons has been first proposed by XREF_BIBR; XREF_BIBR) to explain the ability of this hormone to inhibit hippocampal neurons excitability."

sparser
"Thus, it is conceivable that BK channel activation by leptin regulates the level of hippocampal excitability."

reach
"Therefore, in the present study, the neuroprotective potential of BK channel activation by leptin and the underlying molecular mechanism (s), have been assessed in cortical neurons exposed to the ionotropic glutamate receptor agonist N-methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA), a classical excitotoxic insult."

reach
"Here we show that BK channel activation by leptin is dependent on the actin cytoskeleton, as it is prevented by actin filament stabilization and mimicked by actin disruption."

"The actin cytoskeleton plays a role in BK channel activation by leptin, actin filament stabilization prevents the effects of leptin on epileptiform-like activity, and actin filament disruption mimics [MISSING/INVALID CREDENTIALS: limited to 200 char for Elsevier]"

"Single-channel recordings in ' perforated microvesicles ' confirmed that leptin increased BK channel open probability without altering its unitary conductance."
