Kv1.3 induced hyperpolarisation and Cav3.2-mediated calcium entry are required for efficientKaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus lytic replication

The paper identifies Kv1.3 and Cav3.2 ion channels as essential for KSHV lytic replication by promoting Ca2+ influx and NFAT activation.

The hypoxic ventilatory response is facilitated by the activation of Lkb1-AMPK signalling pathways downstream of the carotid bodies

This study shows that Lkb1-AMPK signaling, but not CaMKK2, is essential for the hypoxic ventilatory response downstream of the carotid bodies.
