Expression of voltage-dependent potassium channels in first trimester human placentae

Potassium channel α-subunits encoded by KCNQ1-5 genes form voltage-dependent channels (KV7), modulated by KCNE1-5 encoded accessory proteins. The aim was to determine KCNQ and KCNE mRNA expression and assess protein expression/localisation of the KCNQ3 and KCNE5 isoforms in first trimester placental...
