Spadin Selectively Antagonizes Arachidonic Acid Activation of TREK-1 Channels

TREK-1 channel activity is a critical regulator of neuronal, cardiac, and smooth muscle physiology and pathology. The antidepressant peptide, spadin, has been proposed to be a TREK-1-specific blocker. Here we sought to examine the mechanism of action underlying spadin inhibition of TREK-1 channels....
