Ion Channels — Basic Science and Clinical Disease

Ackerman, Michael J., Clapham, David E.·1997·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Ion channels constitute a class of proteins that is ultimately responsible for generating and orchestrating the electrical signals passing through the thinking brain, the beating heart, and the contracting muscle. Using the methods of molecular biology and patch-clamp electrophysiology, investigators have recently cloned, expressed, and characterized the genes encoding many of these proteins. Ion-channel proteins are under intense scrutiny in an effort to determine their roles in pathophysiology and as potential targets for drugs.Defective ion-channel proteins are responsible for cystic fibrosis,1 the long-QT syndrome,2 heritable hypertension (Liddle's syndrome),3,4 familial persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy,5,6 hereditary nephrolithiasis (Dent's . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
