Anoctamin 1 (ANO1), a drug target for various cancers, including prostate and oral cancers, is an intracellular calcium-activated chloride ion channel that plays various physiopathological roles, especially in the induction of cancer growth and ...

Hedgehog pathway dysregulation contributes to the pathogenesis of human gastrointestinal stromal tumors via GLI-mediated activation of KIT expression. [PDF]
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) arise within the interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC) lineage due to activating KIT/PDGFRA mutations. Both ICC and GIST possess primary cilia (PC), which coordinate PDGFRA and Hedgehog signaling, regulators of ...

The role of TMEM16A (ANO1) and TMEM16F (ANO6) in cell migration [PDF]
Members of the TMEM16 family have recently been described as Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channels. They have been implicated in cancer and appear to be associated with poor patient prognosis. Here, we investigate the role of TMEM16 channels in cell migration, which is largely unknown.

Involvement of the transmembrane protein p23 in biosynthetic protein transport [PDF]
The identification of ANO1/TMEM16A as the likely calcium-dependent chloride channel of exocrine glands has led to a more detailed understanding of its biophysical properties.

The Putative Ca2+-Acting Site in ANO1 [PDF]
Ca2+-activated Cl- channels (CaCC) mediate numerous physiological functions including vectorial Cl- movements across epithelia. Anoctamin1/TMEM16A (Ano1) confers Ca2+-activated Cl- currents. ANO1 having TMs with a putative pore region between TM5 and TM6 shows similar biophysical as well as pharmacological properties as those known for endogenous CaCCs.

Epstein-Barr virus transcription factor Zta acts through distal regulatory elements to directly control cellular gene expression [PDF]
Lytic replication of the human gamma herpes virus Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an essential prerequisite for the spread of the virus. Differential regulation of a limited number of cellular genes has been reported in B-cells during the viral lytic ...

Mechanical force loading is essential for maintaining bone homeostasis, and unloading exposure can lead to bone loss. Osteoclasts are the only bone resorbing cells and play a crucial role in bone remodeling. The molecular mechanisms underlying mechanical

Solithromycin inhibits IL-13-induced goblet cell hyperplasia and MUC5AC, CLCA1, and ANO1 in human bronchial epithelial cells [PDF]
Solithromycin is a novel fluoroketolide antibiotic belonging to the class of macrolide antibiotics. Activation of the interleukin (IL)-13 receptor leads to STAT6 activation and subsequent induction of SAM pointed domain containing ETS transcription ...

Receptor tyrosine kinase c-Kit, a marker found on interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs), is expressed in Leydig cells, which are testicular interstitial cells. The expression of other ICC markers has not yet been reported. In this study, we investigated the
