Bioelectric controls of cell proliferation: Ion channels, membrane voltage and the cell cycle
Open accessAbstract
All cells possess long-term, steady-state voltage gradients across the plasma membrane. These transmembrane potentials arise from the combined activity of numerous ion channels, pumps and gap junction complexes. Increasing data from molecular physiology now reveal that the role of changes in membrane voltage controls, and is in turn controlled by, progression through the cell cycle. We review recent functional data on the regulation of mitosis by bioelectric signals, and the function of membrane voltage and specific potassium, sodium and chloride ion channels in the proliferation of embryonic, somatic and neoplastic cells. Its unique properties place this powerful, well-conserved, but still poorly-understood signaling system at the center of the coordinated cellular interactions required for complex pattern formation. Moreover, disregulation of ion channel expression and function is increasingly observed to be not only a useful marker but likely a functional element in oncogenesis. New advances in genomics and the development of in vivo biophysical techniques suggest exciting opportunities for molecular medicine, bioengineering and regenerative approaches to human health.

Changes in Vm control critical cell functions including proliferation, migration, and differentiation.
“Since then, changes in Vm, representing the long-term, slowly changing bioelectric gradient in non-excitable cells (Lobikin et al., 2012), have been shown to control critical cell functions including proliferation, migration, and differentiation (Binggeli and Weinstein, 1986; Schwab et al., 2007; Blackiston et al., 2009; Sundelacruz et al., 2009).”
From Membrane potential and cancer progression (2013) · cites this paper as Blackiston et al., 2009
The sections on Vmem and cell proliferation and on regenerative medicine describe voltage-dependent control of proliferation. The Vmem and cell proliferation section also reports that changing membrane potential can alter differentiation in human mesenchymal stem cells. Our copy does not establish that changes in Vmem control migration; its mention of cell migration occurs in a reference title about an ion exchanger. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe Vm fluctuates during cell cycle progression, and follows a multi-step and rhythmic pattern.
“An additional layer of complexity in this model is that the Vm fluctuates during cell cycle progression, and follows a multi-step and rhythmic pattern (Wonderlin and Strobl, 1996; Blackiston et al., 2009) (Figure 2).”
From Membrane potential and cancer progression (2013) · cites this paper as Blackiston et al., 2009
Modulation of chloride, sodium, potassium, and calcium channel activity has been found to contribute to the relatively depolarized resting Vm in cancer cells.
“Modulation of chloride, sodium, potassium, and calcium channel activity has also been found to contribute to the relatively depolarized resting Vm in cancer cells [71].”

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.
