Description
Summary:This volume presents the most recent research findings on the key role played by Mg2+ in the regulation of ion channels in excitable tissue. Contributions describe the multiple actions exerted by Mg2+ on the different types on ion channels controlling nerve and cardiac cell activity. Recent developments in the detection of single ion channel activity provide important insights into the mechanisms of action of Mg2+ at the channel level.
