At normal body temperature, the two-pore potassium channels TREK-1 (K2P2.1/KCNK2), TREK-2 (K2P10.1/KCNK10), and TRAAK (K2P4.1/KCNK2) regulate cellular excitability by providing voltage-independent leak of potassium. Heat dramatically potentiates K2P channel activity and further affects excitation. This review focuses on the current understanding of the physiological role of heat-activated K2P current, and discusses the molecular mechanism of temperature gating in TREK-1, TREK-2, and TRAAK.
