Infrared light stimulates the mitochondrial large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel in guinea pig cardiomyocytes.

Joanna Lewandowska, Piotr Bednarczyk, Barbara Kalenik…·Adam M. Szewczyk

This study shows that 820 nm infrared light enhances mitochondrial BKCa channel activity in guinea pig cardiomyocytes through a redox-dependent mechanism.

Near-infra red light and mitochondrial large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels: protection of hippocampal neurons, influence on channel activity and transcriptome remodelling

Piotr Bednarczyk, M Beresewicz, Joanna Lewandowska…·Barbara Kalenik

This study shows that 820 nm near-infrared light activates mitochondrial BKCa channels and induces transcriptome remodeling in hippocampal neurons and glioma cells, contributing to neuroprotection.
