HGF modulates actin cytoskeleton remodeling and contraction in testicular myoid cells [PDF]
The presence of the HGF/Met system in the testicular myoid cells was first discovered by our group. However, the physiological role of this pathway remains poorly understood. We previously reported that HGF increases uPA secretion and TGF-β activation in

Primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) is characterized by aldosterone excess and hypertension. This may be linked to increased renal Na+ reabsorption via the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) and the NaCl cotransporter (NCC).

Acid-Sensing Ion Channels Activated by Evoked Released Protons Modulate Synaptic Transmission at the Mouse Calyx of Held Synapse [PDF]
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) regulate synaptic activities and play important roles in neurodegenerative diseases. We found that these channels can be activated in neurons of the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) of the auditory system in ...

Strain-dependent porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) entry and replication in T-lymphoblasts [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the etiological agent of PCV2-associated diseases (PCVAD). PCV2 targets lymphoblasts, and pigs suffering from PCVAD display lymphocyte depletion in lymphoid tissues. PCV2 infection of lymphoblasts has not been studied.

pH regulatory Na/H exchange by Amphiuma red blood cells. [PDF]
In Amphiuma red blood cells, the Na/H exchanger has been shown to play a central role in the regulation of cell volume following cell shrinkage (Cala, P. M. 1980. Journal of General Physiology.

Synthesis, characterization and investigation of biodistribution of dendrimer-amiloride nanoconjugate using single photon computed tomography technique in animal sample [PDF]
Objective(s): Amiloride is a pyrazine compound that inhibits the reabsorption of sodium by blocking sodium channels in the cells of the renal cortex. It has demonstrated promising efficacy in the treatment of cancer in recent times.

Amiloride, a new, well-tolerated oral natriuretic and mild diuretic agent, has been evaluated alone and in combination with other diuretics. Its remarkable ability to promote retention rather than loss of potassium makes it a useful adjunct in the management of even the most severe edematous states.

Versatility of NaCl transport mechanisms in the cortical collecting duct [PDF]
Versatility of NaCl transport mechanisms in the cortical collecting duct. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 313: F1254 –F1263, 2017. First published September 6, 2017; doi:10.1152/ajprenal.00369.2017.—The cortical collecting duct (CCD) forms part of the ...

We sought to determine the effect of amiloride on blood pressure (BP) and the presence of polymorphisms of the β-subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) among normotensive (NT) and hypertensive (HT) Nigerians.
