Role of physiological ClC-1 Cl- ion channel regulation for the excitability and function of working skeletal muscle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Electrical membrane properties of skeletal muscle fibers have been thoroughly studied over the last five to six decades. This has shown that muscle fibers from a wide range of species, including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, are all ...

Embryonic cerebrospinal fluid pressure in fetal mice in utero: External factors pressurize the intraventricular space

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous experiments inducing leakage of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggest the necessity of intraventricular CSF pressure (PCSF) for brain morphogenesis. Nevertheless, how embryonic PCSF occurs is unclear, especially in utero. Results Using a Landis water manometer, we measured PCSF in fetal mice isolated from the amniotic

Physiological levels of lipoxin A4 inhibit ENaC and restore airway surface liquid height in cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In cystic fibrosis (CF), the airway surface liquid (ASL) is depleted. We previously demonstrated that lipoxin A4 (LXA4) can modulate ASL height (ASLh) through actions on Cl(-) transport.

Campylobacter concisus Impairs Sodium Absorption in Colonic Epithelium via ENaC Dysfunction and Claudin-8 Disruption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) can increase the colonic absorptive capacity for salt and water. Campylobacter concisus is a common pathogenic epsilonproteobacterium, causing enteritis and diarrhea. It can induce barrier dysfunction in the intestine,

Differential segment‐specific signalling pathways for guanylate cyclase C‐activated anion secretion in murine ileocolon

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Guanylate cyclase‐C (GC‐C) is the receptor for endogenous (uro)guanylin peptides, bacterial toxins and pharmacological analogues. Receptor activation leads to intestinal fluid loss, but also activates an antiproliferative pathway and is a promising target in colorectal cancer therapy.

Recovery from acidosis is a robust trigger for loss of force in murine hypokalemic periodic paralysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Periodic paralysis is an ion channelopathy of skeletal muscle in which recurrent episodes of weakness or paralysis are caused by sustained depolarization of the resting potential and thus reduction of fiber excitability.

Predictors of a Gabapentinoid–Loop‐Diuretic Prescribing Cascade in U.S. Nursing Home Residents

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
Among 23,544 older adult long‐stay nursing home residents who initiated a gabapentinoid in the nursing home (2016–2022), 4.2% experienced a loop diuretic prescribing cascade within 90 days. Predictors of the prescribing cascade included older age, higher medication burden (≥ 15 medications), current receipt of non‐loop diuretics, and titration of ...

Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the
