Salivary Extracellular Vesicles: Paradigm Shift in Liquid Biopsy Diagnostics
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs), lipid bilayer nanoparticles released by virtually all cells, serve as essential messengers for intercellular communication. Due to their involvement in several pathophysiological processes, EVs have recently gained considerable attention as potentially diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for various illnesses ...

Cell-specific mechanisms of TMEM16A Ca2+-activated chloride channel in cancer
TMEM16A (known as anoctamin 1) Ca2+-activated chloride channel is overexpressed in many tumors. TMEM16A overexpression can be caused by gene amplification in many tumors harboring 11q13 amplification.

The calcium-activated chloride channel Anoctamin 1 contributes to the regulation of renal function [PDF]
The role of calcium-activated chloride channels for renal function is unknown. By immunohistochemistry we demonstrate dominant expression of the recently identified calcium-activated chloride channels, Anoctamin 1 (Ano1, TMEM16A) in human and mouse proximal tubular epithelial (PTE) cells, with some expression in podocytes and other tubular segments ...

Potential Virulence Factors in Pyrenophora teres Through Label‐Free Cellular Proteomics Analysis
This study presents the first label‐free proteomic profile of Pyrenophora teres, identifying potential virulence factors unique to virulent isolates. These proteins were mapped to the P. teres f. teres reference genome and previously identified virulence QTL, providing a valuable resource for future research. ABSTRACT Pyrenophora teres f.

Ca2+‐Activated Cl− Channels: Do Bestrophins and TMEM16A Interact?
ABSTRACT Aim Ca2+‐activated Cl– conductances are present in many cell types and are important for regulating membrane potential as well as other cellular functions. TMEM16A is widely accepted as the principal molecular basis for Ca2+‐activated Cl– conductances, but also members of the bestrophin family may be important for some Ca2+‐activated Cl ...

HIF‐Regulated Pannexin‐1 Channel Drives Luminal ATP Accumulation in Kidney Cysts
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease causes progressive cyst enlargement in the kidneys, leading to hypoxia and induction of HIF‐1α. Our study identifies HIF‐1α‐dependent transcriptional upregulation of Pannexin1 (PANX1) in the apical membrane of cyst epithelial cells, promoting ATP release into the cyst lumen.
