Anoctamin‐1 channel localization in excitable domains of the heart (893.23)
Calcium‐activated chloride (Cl Ca ) currents are widely distributed in cardiac tissues and have been implicated to play a role in cardiac physiology and pathophysiology. Anoctamin‐1 (Ano1) is a membrane protein that functions as a Cl Ca channel and has ...

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.

HCO3- transport through anoctamin/transmembrane protein ANO1/TMEM16A, in pancreatic acinar cells, regulates luminal pH [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.

P2X4 receptor function in the nervous system and current breakthroughs in pharmacology [PDF]
ATP is a well-known extracellular signalling molecule and neurotransmitter known to activate purinergic P2X receptors. Information has been elucidated about the structure and gating of P2X channels following the determination of the crystal structure of ...

Differential expression of anoctamin 1 in human epithelial ovarian cancer.
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We performed discovery of genes associated with epithelial ovarian cancer and of the high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) subtype, using published and public microarray data (2, 3) to compare global gene expression profiles of normal ovary or fallopian tube with that of ...

Genome-wide gene expression profiling of stress response in a spinal cord clip compression injury model. [PDF]
BackgroundThe aneurysm clip impact-compression model of spinal cord injury (SCI) is a standard injury model in animals that closely mimics the primary mechanism of most human injuries: acute impact and persisting compression.
