Evaluation of the Role of Potassium Channels in the Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion of Blood Cells.

The potassium channels are one of the key regulators of cell membrane potential and permeability properties of blood cells. The changes in functioning of potassium channels control crucial cell processes such as proliferation, viability, migration, and invasion. The correct estimation of these processes is important for the characterization of physiological and pathophysiological cell states. Here, we present the experimental protocol for evaluation of the role of potassium ion channels in the proliferation, migration, and invasion of blood cells.
