Role of the neuronal K-Cl co-transporter KCC2 in inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmission

Role of the neuronal K-Cl co-transporter KCC2 in inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmission

The K-Cl co-transporter KCC2 plays multiple roles in the physiology of central neurons and alterations of its function and/or expression are associated with several neurological conditions. By regulating intraneuronal chloride homeostasis, KCC2 strongly influences the efficacy and polarity of the ch...
