Gene cloning and monoclonal antibody techniques provide us with new approaches to the study of the molecular structure of ion channels.

The study of ion chan- nels has now reached a stage at which a quantum jump in progress is antici- pated. There are many good reasons for this. Patch clamp techniques origi- nally developed by Neher and Sakmann 12 years ago have made it possible to study the function of ion channels in a variety of cells. Membrane ionic currents can now be recorded practically from many types of cells using the whole-cell patch clamp technique. The opening and closing of individual ion channels can be analyzed using the single-channel patch clamp method. Techniques have also been developed to incorporate purified ion channels into lipid bilayers to reconstitute an excitable membrane.  Advanced tech- niques developed in molecular biology, genetics, and immunology, such as gene cloning and the use of monoclonal antibodies, are now being applied to the study of ion channels. A variety of drugs have now been found or are suspected to interact with ion channels to exert therapeutic effects. In addition to the classical exam- ples, as represented by local anesthetics, many other drugs, including cal- cium antagonists, psychoactive drugs, cardiac drugs, and anticonvulsants, shown to alter ion channel function. For certain pesticides such as have been pyrethroids and DT, sodium channels are clearly the major target site.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52128514113809,"sku":"NLS9781461573043","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781461573043.jpg?v=1757491737"},{"product_id":"ion-channels-book-t-narahashi-9781489917775","title":"Ion Channels","description":"'Further establishes the reputation of the series...an  invaluable resource.' -Trends in Pharmacological  Sciences, from a  review of Volume 3 Volume 4 explores such  emergent topics as:  three-dimensional conceptions of ion channel  proteins based on the  available structural and functional data;","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52410460897553,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52410461389073,"sku":"NLS9781489917775","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781489917775.jpg?v=1758778054"},{"product_id":"ion-channels-book-t-narahashi-9780306452246","title":"Ion Channels","description":"'Further establishes the reputation of the series...an  invaluable resource.' -Trends in Pharmacological  Sciences, from a  review of Volume 3 Volume 4 explores such  emergent topics as:  three-dimensional conceptions of ion channel  proteins based on the  available structural and functional data;","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52462599635217,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52462599930129,"sku":"NLS9780306452246","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780306452246.jpg?v=1759529327"},{"product_id":"ion-channels-book-t-narahashi-9781461364665","title":"Ion Channels","description":"In the past few years, the scientific community has witnessed significant progress in the study of ion channels.
