A novel role of the antidepressant paroxetine in inhibiting neuronal Kv7/M channels to enhance neuronal excitability

Abstract The voltage-gated Kv7/KCNQ/M potassium channels exert inhibitory control over neuronal membrane excitability. The reduction of Kv7 channel function can improve neuronal excitability that defines the fundamental mechanism of learning and memory. This suggests that pharmacological inhibition...
