Histidine Residues Are Responsible for Bidirectional Effects of Zinc on Acid-Sensing Ion Channel 1a/3 Heteromeric Channels

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Acid-sensing ion channel (ASIC) subunits 1a and 3 are highly expressed in central and peripheral sensory neurons, respectively. Endogenous biomolecule zinc plays a critical role in physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Tissue acidosis induces neuronal necroptosis via ASIC1a channel independent of its ionic conduction

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Acidotoxicity is common among neurological disorders, such as ischemic stroke. Traditionally, Ca2+ influx via homomeric acid-sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a) was considered to be the leading cause of ischemic acidotoxicity. Here we show that extracellular

Mambalgin-2 Inhibits Growth, Migration, and Invasion of Metastatic Melanoma Cells by Targeting the Channels Containing an ASIC1a Subunit Whose Up-Regulation Correlates with Poor Survival Prognosis

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Melanoma is an aggressive cancer characterized by the acidification of the extracellular environment. Here, we showed for the first time that extracellular media acidification increases proliferation, migration, and invasion of patient-derived metastatic

Regulation of gliomagenesis and stemness through acid sensor ASIC1a

open access: yesInternational Journal of Oncology, 2021
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most prevalent and aggressive type of adult gliomas. Despite intensive therapy including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, invariable tumor recurrence occurs, which suggests that glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) render these tumors persistent.

Acidosis induces RIPK1-dependent death of glioblastoma stem cells via acid-sensing ion channel 1a

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2022
Eliciting regulated cell death, like necroptosis, is a potential cancer treatment. However, pathways eliciting necroptosis are poorly understood. It has been reported that prolonged activation of acid-sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a) induces necroptosis ...

Acid-Sensing Ion Channel 1a Is Involved in N-Methyl D-Aspartate Receptor-Dependent Long-Term Depression in the Hippocampus

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs), members of the degenerin/epithelial Na+ channel superfamily, are largely expressed in the mammalian nervous system. ASIC1a is highly permeable to Ca2+ and are involved in many physiological processes, including synaptic

Conformational Changes Associated with Proton-dependent Gating of ASIC1a [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Acid-sensing ion channels are proton-gated Na(+) channels expressed predominantly in neurons. How channel structure translates an environmental stimulus into changes in pore permeability remains largely undefined. The pore of ASIC1 is defined by residues in the second transmembrane domain (TM2), although a segment of the outer vestibule is formed by ...

Coupling of store-operated calcium entry to vasoconstriction is acid-sensing ion channel 1a dependent in pulmonary but not mesenteric arteries.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Although voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (VGCC) are a major Ca2+ entry pathway in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), several other Ca2+-influx mechanisms exist and play important roles in vasoreactivity.

Pharmacological Validation of ASIC1a as a Druggable Target for Neuroprotection in Cerebral Ischemia Using an Intravenously Available Small Molecule Inhibitor

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Acidosis is a hallmark of ischemic stroke and a promising neuroprotective target for preventing neuronal injury. Previously, genetic manipulations showed that blockade of acid-sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a)-mediated acidotoxicity could dramatically ...
