“…Given the significant contribution of I H to the subthreshold behavior of many cells in both the CNS and periphery (including the PNS, heart, and smooth muscle), our evidence that the voltage dependence of HCN channels is sensitive to AA and PA opens up avenues of investigation in a number of realms, including synaptic transmission (Sang and Chen, 2006), neuropathic pain (Woolf and Salter, 2000;Chaplan et al, 2003), and cardiac ischemia (Mancuso et al, 2003), in which both I H and changes in these metabolites have been independently implicated.…”
