Acid-Sensing Ion Channel 2: Function and Modulation

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) have an important influence on human physiology and pathology. They are members of the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel family.

Tarantula toxins use common surfaces for interacting with Kv and ASIC ion channels [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Tarantula toxins that bind to voltage-sensing domains of voltage-activated ion channels are thought to partition into the membrane and bind to the channel within the bilayer.

The His-Gly motif of acid-sensing ion channels resides in a reentrant ‘loop’ implicated in gating and ion selectivity

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are proton-gated members of the epithelial sodium channel/degenerin (ENaC/DEG) superfamily of ion channels and are expressed throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems.

Development of ASIC1a ligand-gated ion channel drug screening assays across multiple automated patch clamp platforms

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Human acid-sensing ion channels (ASIC) are ligand-gated ionotropic receptors expressed widely in peripheral tissues as well as sensory and central neurons and implicated in detection of inflammation, tissue injury, and hypoxia-induced acidosis.

Endogenous Neuropeptide Nocistatin Is a Direct Agonist of Acid-Sensing Ion Channels (ASIC1, ASIC2 and ASIC3)

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
Acid-sensing ion channel (ASIC) channels belong to the family of ligand-gated ion channels known as acid-sensing (proton-gated) ion channels. Only a few activators of ASICs are known.

Characteristics of acid‐sensing ion channel currents in male rat muscle dorsal root ganglion neurons following ischemia/reperfusion

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
Peripheral artery diseases (PAD) increases muscle afferent nerve‐activated reflex sympathetic nervous and blood pressure responses during exercise (termed as exercise pressor reflex).

A COMPUTATIONAL STUDY ON Ca²⁺ MODULATION OF ASIC 1 PHARMACOLOGIC PROPERTIES

open access: yesStudia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai Chemia, 2021
Acid-sensing ion channel (ASIC) is involved in important processes like synaptic plasticity and learning, fear and anxiety, pain sensation. Due to its role in neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation, the channel is a viable pharmacological target.

Modulation of Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors and Acid-Sensing Ion Channels by Nitric Oxide

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2012
Ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluR) are ligand-gated ion channels and are densely expressed in broad areas of mammalian brains. Like iGluRs, acid-sensing ion channels (ASIC) are ligand (H+)-gated channels and are enriched in brain cells and ...

Paradoxical Potentiation of Acid-Sensing Ion Channel 3 (ASIC3) by Amiloride via Multiple Mechanisms and Sites Within the Channel

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Acid-Sensing Ion Channels (ASICs) are proton-gated sodium-selective cation channels that have emerged as metabolic and pain sensors in peripheral sensory neurons and contribute to neurotransmission in the CNS.

Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors Are Novel Targets of APETx-like Toxins from the Sea Anemone Heteractis magnifica

open access: yesToxins, 2022
The nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are prototypical ligand-gated ion channels, provide cholinergic signaling, and are modulated by various venom toxins and drugs in addition to neurotransmitters.
