description Potassium is a fundamental ion at the core of vital processes, including neuronal signaling, muscle contraction, and fluid-electrolyte balance. Featuring cutting-edge research on potassium transport in health and disease and uniquely integrating a nutritional perspective, this book presents a comprehensive view that ranges from molecular mechanisms to whole-body health. Specifically, it examines the interplay between dietary potassium and the functions of potassium channels, pumps, and co-transporters in digestion, highlights the roles of KATP and BK channels in vascular and metabolic regulation, and explores the role of potassium homeostasis in preeclampsia. This book is expected to be of interest to scientists in the fields of ion channels and nutrition, including graduate students, postdoctoral trainees, academic researchers, and scientists from the pharmaceutical industry.
