A nonlinear and time-dependent leak current in the presence of calcium fluoride patch-clamp seal enhancer [version 1; peer review: 2 approved with reservations] (2020)
Journal Article
Lei, C. L., Fabbri, A., Whittaker, D. G., Clerx, M., Windley, M. J., Hill, A. P., …de Boer, T. P. (2020). A nonlinear and time-dependent leak current in the presence of calcium fluoride patch-clamp seal enhancer [version 1; peer review: 2 approved with reservations]. Wellcome Open Research, 5, Article 152. https://doi.org/10.12688/wellcomeopenres.15968.1

Automated patch-clamp platforms are widely used and vital tools in both academia and industry to enable high-throughput studies such as drug screening. A leak current to ground occurs whenever the seal between a pipette and cell (or internal solution...

CellML 2.0 (2020)
Journal Article
Clerx, M., Cooling, M. T., Cooper, J., Garny, A., Moyle, K., Nickerson, D. P., …Sorby, H. (2020). CellML 2.0. Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics, 17(2-3), https://doi.org/10.1515/jib-2020-0021

We present here CellML 2.0, an XML-based language for describing and exchanging mathematical models of physiological systems. MathML embedded in CellML documents is used to define the underlying mathematics of models. Models consist of a network of r... Read More about CellML 2.0.

Accounting for variability in ion current recordings using a mathematical model of artefacts in voltage-clamp experiments (2020)
Journal Article
Clerx, M., Lei, C. L., Whittaker, D. G., Gavaghan, D. J., de Boer, T. P., & Mirams, G. R. (2020). Accounting for variability in ion current recordings using a mathematical model of artefacts in voltage-clamp experiments. Philosophical Transactions A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 378(2173), Article 20190348. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsta.2019.0348

Mathematical models of ion channels, which constitute indispensable components of action potential models, are commonly constructed by fitting to whole-cell patch-clamp data. In a previous study, we fitted cell-specific models to hERG1a (Kv11.1) reco...
