Expression of the potassium channel Kv1.3. Protein extracts were prepared from control and iron-fed C8B4 microglia. Western blot analysis was carried out to determine the level of Kv1.3 in the microglia. Bands for the protein were observed in both control and iron-fed microglia. Levels of tubulin were also determined to verify protein loading. The results showed a significant (p < 0.05) elevation of Kv1.3 in iron-fed microglia. Shown are the mean and S.E.M. of four separate experiments.
