Core Tip	The leak K+ conductance generated by TWIK-related acid-sensitive K+ (TASK) channels is crucial for neuronal excitability. Because of the substantial expression of TASK channels in the brain, it is possible that these channels are responsible for numerous neurological disorders. However, little is known about the roles of TASK channels in the development of neurological disorders. In this review, I introduce the molecular basis of leak K+ channels and describe the possible roles for TASK channels in several neurological disorders.
