Increased complexity of Tmem16a/Anoctamin 1 transcript alternative splicing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background TMEM16A (Anoctamin 1; ANO1) is an eight transmembrane protein that functions as a calcium-activated chloride channel. TMEM16A in human exhibits alternatively spliced exons (6b, 13 and 15), which confer important roles in the ...

Effects of the Calcium-Activated Chloride Channel Inhibitors T16Ainh-A01 and CaCCinh-A01 on Cardiac Fibroblast Function

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: Calcium-activated chloride channels (CaCCs) regulate numerous physiological processes including cell proliferation, migration, and extracellular matrix secretion. T16Ainh-A01 and CaCCinh-A01 are selective inhibitors of CaCCs.

Molecular Mechanisms of Electric Signals Generated at Corneal Wounds

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 16, 31 August 2026.
Corneal injury triggers cell signaling (including calcium waves) leading to ion channel up‐regulation, increased ion pumping, and enhanced wound electric signals which stimulate wound healing. ABSTRACT Over 150 years ago, it was demonstrated that wounds produce electric fields and currents.

Triterpenoid glycosides from the rhizomes of Allium ascalonicum and their anoctamin-1 inhibitory activity

open access: yes, 2020
Ten triterpenoid glycosides including two undescribed compounds (1 and 2) were isolated from the methanol extract of Allium ascalonicum rhizomes. These compounds were structurally elucidated to be 3β-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl-19α ...

Smooth muscle cell polycystin 1 (PKD1) is dispensable for physiological regulation of arterial contractility

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 15, Page 6348-6368, 1 August 2026.
Abstract figure legend Physiological functions of PKD1, a large transmembrane polycystin protein, are unclear. Previous results obtained using germline non‐specific knockout mice suggested that PKD1 regulates arterial smooth muscle cell contractility.

Relationship Between Central Sensitization and Genetic Polymorphisms—A Case–Control Study in Fibromyalgia

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterised by widespread chronic pain, which is believed to be mediated by a state of central sensitisation (CS). Based on the hypothesis that CS itself could have genetic determinants, our aim was to further explore this pathway.

Salivary Extracellular Vesicles: Paradigm Shift in Liquid Biopsy Diagnostics

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 7, July 2026.
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 ...

Anoctamin 2/TMEM16B: A calcium-activated chloride channel in olfactory transduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In vertebrate olfactory transduction, a Ca2+-dependent Cl- efflux greatly amplifies the odorant response. The binding of odorants to receptors in the cilia of olfactory sensory neurons activates a transduction cascade that involves the opening of cyclic ...
