The pharmacology of ion channels is becoming increasingly important. M olecular biology techniques have led to the better understanding of io n channel structure which has opened the way for the development of ne w drugs targeted at specific types of ion channels. This volume provid es a fully comprehensive, single-volume overview of the effects of dif ferent drugs and toxins on ionic channels. The first part of the book deals with the development of ion channels. Subsequent chapters offer detailed descriptions of the electrophysiological properties and pharm acology of eight different types...

Pancreatic a-cell biophysics has undergone a veritable informa- tion explosion in the past two years. Single channel and macroscopic currents have become easily accessible following the introduction of the patch clamp technique. In addition to this new approach, further development of techniques for optical measurements, ion-sensitive microelectrodes, permeabilized cells and mathematical modelling have recently added to the now classical techniques of membrane potential recording and tracer flux measurement. The International Workshop on Biophysics of the Pancreatic a-Cell held in Alicante...
