Dynamic change of electrostatic field in TMEM16F permeation pathway shifts its ion selectivity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
TMEM16F is activated by elevated intracellular Ca2+, and functions as a small-conductance ion channel and as a phospholipid scramblase. In contrast to its paralogs, the TMEM16A/B calcium-activated chloride channels, mouse TMEM16F has been reported as a ...

TMEM16A/ANO1 Channels Contribute to the Myogenic Response in Cerebral Arteries [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2012
Rationale: Pressure-induced arterial depolarization and constriction (the myogenic response) is a smooth muscle cell (myocyte)-specific mechanism that controls regional organ blood flow and systemic blood pressure.

The Function and Mechanism of TMEM16A/ANO1 in Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2017
Pancreatic cancer is the eighth leading cause of cancer death and is difficult to treat because clinical presentation is often late, and the disease is resistant to conventional chemotherapy. About 57% of pancreatic cancer patients are diagnosed at distant metastasis status and five-year survival rate is only 2%.

Genetic disruption of Ano5 in mice does not recapitulate human ANO5-deficient muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Anoctamin 5 (ANO5) is a member of a conserved gene family (TMEM16), which codes for proteins predicted to have eight transmembrane domains and putative Ca(2+)-activated chloride channel (CaCC) activity. It was recently reported that mutations

Anoctamin 1 is Apically Expressed on Thyroid Follicular Cells and Contributes to ATP- and Calcium-Activated Iodide Efflux

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2014
Background/Aims: Iodide efflux from thyroid cells into the follicular lumen is essential for the synthesis of thyroid hormones, however, the pathways mediating this transport have only been partially identified.

TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains in the regulation of vascular function

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains. Calcium influx or calcium release from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) activates TMEM16A channels through interactions with regulatory proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells or endothelial cells. TMEM16A channel activation drives chloride efflux,

TMEM16A/ANO1 Inhibits Apoptosis Via Downregulation of Bim Expression [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2017
Abstract Purpose: TMEM16A is a calcium-activated chloride channel that is amplified in a variety of cancers, including 30% of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs), raising the possibility of an anti-apoptotic role in malignant cells. This study investigated this using a multimodal, translational investigation.
