Campylobacter concisus Impairs Sodium Absorption in Colonic Epithelium via ENaC Dysfunction and Claudin-8 Disruption [PDF]
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) can increase the colonic absorptive capacity for salt and water. Campylobacter concisus is a common pathogenic epsilonproteobacterium, causing enteritis and diarrhea. It can induce barrier dysfunction in the intestine,

Bioactive Molecules against Rheumatoid Arthritis by Suppressing Pyroptosis
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease, and pyroptosis is a form of death associated with an inflammatory response. Pyroptosis, which occurs in synovial and osteoblastic cells, can exacerbate the development of rheumatoid arthritis.

Effects of aminoperimidine on electrolyte transport across amphibian skin [PDF]
The effect of aminoperimidine (AP)on transepithelial Na+ transport and Cl- conductance (G(Cl)) of isolated amphibian skin (Bufo viridis and Rana esculenta) was analyzed using transepithelial and intracellular electrophysiological techniques.

Sodium chloride transport of normal and dietary enlarged rat cecum in vitro [PDF]
Sodium chloride transport across isolated cecum mucosa was investigated in normal rats and rats with adaptive cecum growth induced by dietary polyethylene glycol (PEG). The normal cecum absorbed CI in excess of Na with a small short-circuit current (Isc).

Role of carbon dioxide and ion transport in the formation of sub-embryonic fluid by the blastoderm of the Japanese quail [PDF]
1. The explanted blastoderm of the Japanese quail was used to explore the role of ions and carbon dioxide in determining the rate of sub-embryonic fluid (SEF) production between 54 and 72 h of incubation. 2.

Gelsolin induces colorectal tumor cell invasion via modulation of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator cascade [PDF]
Gelsolin is a cytoskeletal protein which participates in actin filament dynamics and promotes cell motility and plasticity. Although initially regarded as a tumor suppressor, gelsolin expression in certain tumors correlates with poor prognosis and ...

Trial of Amiloride in Type 2 Diabetes With Proteinuria
Renal sodium (Na+) retention and extracellular fluid volume expansion are hallmarks of nephrotic syndrome, which occurs even in the absence of activation of hormones that stimulate renal Na+ transporters. Plasmin-dependent activation of the epithelial Na+
