Molecular Mechanisms of Electric Signals Generated at Corneal Wounds

The 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.

TMEM16A-encoded anoctamin 1 inhibition contributes to chrysin-induced coronary relaxation

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2020
Chrysin, a natural flavonoid available in honey, propolis and medicinal plants, has been shown to be vasorelaxant in some vascular beds. Proper intake of an alimental vasodilator as a food additive may be a promising strategy for prevention and treatment of coronary spasmodic disorders.TMEM16A-encoded anoctamin 1 (ANO1), a Ca2+ activated Cl- channel ...

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

The 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.

Anoctamin 1 dysregulation alters bronchial epithelial repair in cystic fibrosis

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2013
Cystic fibrosis (CF) airway epithelium is constantly subjected to injury events due to chronic infection and inflammation. Moreover, abnormalities in CF airway epithelium repair have been described and contribute to the lung function decline seen in CF patients. In the last past years, it has been proposed that anoctamin 1 (ANO1), a Ca(2+)-activated Cl(

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

European 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.

Inhibition of ANO1/TMEM16A Chloride Channel by Idebenone and Its Cytotoxicity to Cancer Cell Lines. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The expression levels of anoctamin 1 (ANO1, TMEM16A), a calcium-activated chloride channel (CaCC), are significantly increased in several tumors, and inhibition of ANO1 is known to reduce cell proliferation and migration.

Salivary Extracellular Vesicles: Paradigm Shift in Liquid Biopsy Diagnostics

Journal 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 ...

Potential Virulence Factors in Pyrenophora teres Through Label‐Free Cellular Proteomics Analysis

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
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?

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
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 ...
