Example sentences for: rectifier
How can you use “rectifier” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The greater number of inward rectifier K +-channel genes in Anopheles compared to Drosophila is striking, given that these organisms belong to the same order.
Using the conserved K +-channel pore as a probe, I screened the entire A. gambiae genome for the presence of voltage-gated K +channels, Ca 2+-activated K +channels and inward rectifier K +channels, as all these channels possess a homologous pore domain.
4-aminopyridine, at millimolar concentrations, completely inhibits K +currents conducted by heterologously expressed KCNA channels and native GC I Kur , but lacks significant effects on native GC I Ks [ 4 12 13 20 ] . Kusaka showed that antagonism of 4-AP sensitive slowly inactivating delayed rectifier K +currents suppressed both basal and luteinizing hormone (LH)-stimulated progesterone production [ 21 ] . In this report, we extend those findings by demonstrating 4-AP inhibition of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)-stimulated progesterone production, and by elucidating the underlying mechanisms.
The greater number of genes for three K +-channel types, inward rectifier, KQT, and Kv3 (Shaw), in Anopheles is intriguing, given that these organisms have roughly the same number of genes: both gene expansion in Anopheles and gene loss in Drosophila , in separate cases, may account for these differences.
Female rabbit ventricular myocytes had a significantly slower rapid component of the delayed rectifier than did male cells, which might contribute to the gender difference in the QT interval [ 12 ] . In fact, most drugs that prolong the QTc interval have been shown to block cardiac potassium channels, especially the rapid component of the delayed rectifier [ 21 22 ] .
