title: Comment on "Functional consequences of Kv1.3 ion channel rearrangement into the immunological synapse".
abstract: Modulation of the biophysical properties of potassium channel currents upon immunological synapse formation between T cells and antigen-presenting cells has been reported. Some comments on this work are discussed in the light of previously described TASK channels on T lymphocytes.
