Acid-sensing ion channels in pain and disease [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Neuroscience, 2013
Why do neurons sense extracellular acid? In large part, this question has driven increasing investigation on acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) in the CNS and the peripheral nervous system for the past two decades. Significant progress has been made in understanding the structure and function of ASICs at the molecular level.

Acid-sensing ion channels modulate bladder nociception.

open access: yesAm J Physiol Renal Physiol, 2021
Our study indicates that protons and their cognate acid-sensing ion channel receptors are part of a mechanism that operates at bladder afferent terminals to control their function and that the loss of this regulatory mechanism results in hyperactivation of nociceptive pathways and the development of pain in the setting of chemical-induced cystitis.

Identification of TMEM206 proteins as pore of PAORAC/ASOR acid-sensitive chloride channels

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Acid-sensing ion channels have important functions in physiology and pathology, but the molecular composition of acid-activated chloride channels had remained unclear.

Neurosensory mechanotransduction through acid‐sensing ion channels [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2013
AbstractAcid‐sensing ion channels (ASICs) are voltage‐insensitive cation channels responding to extracellular acidification. ASIC proteins have two transmembrane domains and a large extracellular domain. The molecular topology of ASICs is similar to that of the mechanosensory abnormality 4‐ or 10‐proteins expressed in touch receptor neurons and ...

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.

Ion Selectivity in the Selectivity Filters of Acid-Sensing Ion Channels [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
Sodium-selective acid sensing ion channels (ASICs), which belong to the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) superfamily, are key players in many physiological processes (e.g. nociception, mechanosensation, cognition, and memory) and are potential therapeutic targets.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Acid-Sensing Ion Channels: Novel Mediators of Cerebral Vascular Responses. [PDF]

open access: yesCirc Res, 2019
Rationale: Precise regulation of cerebral blood flow is critical for normal brain function. Insufficient cerebral blood flow contributes to brain dysfunction and neurodegeneration. Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), via effects on local acidosis, is one of the most potent regulators of cerebral ...
