Intrathecal Administration of CXCL1 Enhances Potassium Currents in Microglial Cells.
Pharmacology 2018
The functioning of microglial cells inside the central nervous system depends on their ion channels expression. Microglia are capable of synthesizing different cytokines and chemokines, including CXCL1, and responding to their action via specific receptors. In this study, we explore the effect of intrathecal injection of CXCL1 on potassium currents, expressed in CX3CR1-Green Fluorescent Protein labeled microglia in transgenic mice. The results showed that CXCL1 hyperpolarized the cells by enhancing inward rectifying potassium currents and increasing the membrane area, suggesting an activating effect on microglia.
