    New insights into the physiology and pathophysiology of the atypical sodium leak channel NALCN, 2023, Arnaud Monteil et al

    Abstract Cell excitability and its modulation by hormones and neurotransmitters involve the concerted action of membrane proteins, especially ion channels. Unique complements of co-expressed ion channels are exquisitely balanced against each other in different excitable cell types, establishing...
