A distinct gene family of widely distributed and well-modulated two-pore-domain background potassium (K2P) channels establish resting membrane potential and cell excitability. By using new mouse models in which K2P-channel genes are deleted, the contributions of these channels to important physiological functions are now being revealed. Here, we highlight results of recent studies using mice deleted for K2P-channel subunits that uncover physiological functions of these channels, mostly those of the TASK and TREK subgroup. Consistent with activation of these K2P channels by volatile anesthetics, TASK-1, TASK-3 and TREK-1 contribute to anesthetic-induced hypnosis and immobilization. The acid-sensitive TASK channels are not required for brainstem control of breathing by CO2 or pH, despite widespread expression in respiratory-related neurons. TASK channels are necessary, however, for homeostatic regulation of adrenal aldosterone secretion. The heat-, stretch- and lipid-activated TREK-1 channels contribute to temperature and mechanical pain sensation, neuroprotection by polyunsaturated fatty acids and, unexpectedly, mood regulation. The alkaline-activated TASK-2 channel is necessary for HCO3- reabsorption and osmotic volume regulation in kidney proximal tubule cells. Development of compounds that selectively modulate K2P channels is crucial for verifying these results and assessing the efficacy of therapies targeting these interesting channels.
