.: Transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1) plays a critical role in progression of cardiac fibrosis, which may involve intracellular calcium change. We examined effects of efonidipine, a dual T-type and L-type calcium channel blocker (CCB), on TGF-β1 ...

Recent studies have illuminated that blocking Ca2+ influx into effector cells is an attractive therapeutic strategy for lung injury. We hypothesize that T-type calcium channel may be a potential therapeutic target for acute lung injury (ALI).

We propose a model of calcium channels that can explain most of their observed properties, including the anomalous mole fraction effect and mutation of the glutamate residues. The structure grossly resembles that of the KcsA potassium channel except for the presence of an extracellular vestibule and a shorter selectivity filter containing four ...

Extracellular vesicle (EV) lipidomic profiling of plasma and ascites from patients with high‐grade serous ovarian cancer and of ovarian cancer cell lines reveals enrichment of triglycerides (TGs), diacylglycerols (DGs), phosphatidylcholine (PCs), sphingomyelins (SMs), reflecting tumor metabolic reprogramming.

A schistosome [beta] subunit remodels inactivation of a calcium channel _via_ an N-terminal polyacidic motif [PDF]
The beta subunit of high voltage-activated Ca (Cav) channels targets the pore forming [alpha]~1~ subunit to the plasma membrane and defines the biophysical phenotype of the Cav channel complex. Cav channel inactivation following activation and opening is

This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Short QT syndrome (SQTS) is a genetically determined ion-channel disorder, which may cause malignant tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Thus far, mutations in five different genes encoding potassium and calcium channel subunits have been reported.

Study of calcium sparks in skeletal and smooth muscle cells in normal and pathological conditions [PDF]
mTOR signaling influence a wide range of cellular process including protein synthesis (Iadevaia et al., 2012; Ma and Blenis, 2009; Thoreen et al., 2012), lipids synthesis (Lamming and Sabatini, 2013), transcription (Dibble and Manning, 2013; Vazquez ...

Mutant p53R273H disrupts PDPK1 homodimerization and contributes to PDPK1 activation
How mutant p53R273H drives AKT signaling is unclear. We show that p53R273H, but not wild‐type, directly binds PDPK1 via a mutation‐dependent conformational change. This interaction disrupts inhibitory PDPK1 homodimerization and enhances AKT phosphorylation.
