Mechanical stimulation controls osteoclast function through the regulation of Ca2+-activated Cl− channel Anoctamin 1 [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2023 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

Interaction between thermosensitive TRP channels and anoctamin 1. [PDF]
J Physiol SciSome thermosensitive transient receptor potential (TRP) channels form a protein complex with anoctamin 1 (ANO1, also called TMEM16A). TRP channels have high calcium permeability, and the calcium entering cells through TRP channel activation activates ANO1, a calcium-activated chloride channel, involved in many physiological and pathological conditions.

Niclosamide, but not ivermectin, inhibits anoctamin 1 and 6 and attenuates inflammation of the respiratory tract. [PDF]
Pflugers Arch, 2023 AbstractInflammatory airway diseases like cystic fibrosis, asthma and COVID-19 are characterized by high levels of pulmonary cytokines. Two well-established antiparasitic drugs, niclosamide and ivermectin, are intensively discussed for the treatment of viral inflammatory airway infections.

Anoctamin 1 mediates thermal pain as a heat sensor. [PDF]
Curr Neuropharmacol, 2013 Vertebrates can sense and avoid noxious heat that evokes pain. Many thermoTRP channels are associated with temperature sensation. TRPV1 is a representative ion channel that is activated by noxious heat. Anoctamin 1 (ANO1) is a Cl- channel activated by calcium that is highly expressed in small sensory neurons, colocalized with markers for nociceptors ...

Vitexicarpin suppresses colorectal and non-small cell lung cancer via selective inhibition of Anoctamin 1 [PDF]
Frontiers in PharmacologyColorectal cancer (CRC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain among the most challenging malignancies to treat due to therapy complexity, adverse events, and dose-limiting toxicities, which often result in treatment failure. NSCLC, in particular,

Light conditions affect rhythmic expression of aquaporin 5 and anoctamin 1 in rat submandibular glands [PDF]
Heliyon, 2019 Circadian rhythms regulate various physiological functions and are, therefore, essential for health. Light helps regulate the master and peripheral clocks. The secretion rates of saliva and electrolytes follow a circadian rhythm as well.

Anoctamin 1 (TMEM16A) is essential for testosterone-induced prostate hyperplasia. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2015 Significance Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is characterized by an enlargement of the prostate gland, a common disease in elderly men. Excessive testosterone is considered to cause BPH. However, its etiologic mechanisms are elusive.
