RyR1 Is Involved in the Control of Myogenesis

Cells
The RyR1 calcium release channel is a key player in skeletal muscle excitation–contraction coupling. Mutations in the RYR1 gene are associated with congenital myopathies.

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

Studies on horizontal cells of the carp retina with special reference to temperature and calcium [PDF]

, 1995
Carp [Cyprinus carpio) were acclimated to 8±1 C, 16±1.5 C and 26±1 C. Dark adapted retinas were isolated and light induced responses of HI horizontal cells recorded.

Molecular mechanism of Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 6: glutamine repeat disorder, channelopathy and transcriptional dysregulation. The multifaceted aspects of a single mutation. [PDF]

, 2015
Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 6 (SCA6) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disease characterized by late onset, slowly progressive, mostly pure cerebellar ataxia. It is one of three allelic disorders associated to CACNA1A gene, coding for the Alpha1

SUMOylation regulates USP5-Cav3.2 calcium channel interactions

Molecular Brain, 2019
Cav3.2 calcium channels play a key role in nociceptive signaling in the primary afferent pain pathway. We have previously reported the regulation of Cav3.2 calcium channels by the deubiquitinase USP5 and its importance for regulating peripheral ...

Hydrostatic pressure activates HIF‐1α via β‐catenin to promote stemness in breast cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To mimic the elevated intestinal fluid pressure in breast cancers, we loaded human breast cancer cells (MCF‐7, MDA‐MB‐453, and BT‐474) to 50 mmHg hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure exposure upregulated HIF‐1α and induced stemness in MCF‐7 and BT‐474 cells.

Calcium Channel Blockers

Medical Clinics of North America, 1988
The calcium channel blockers initially were approved for the treatment of classical and variant angina pectoris. Recent studies indicate that these agents also are useful in such diverse conditions as pulmonary and systemic hypertension, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, asthma, Raynaud's syndrome, esophageal spasm, myometrial hyperactivity ...

Guiding AlphaFold to predict how Munc13‐1 opens Syntaxin‐1

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The syntaxin‐1 Habc‐domain (orange), linker (pink) and SNARE motif (yellow) form a closed conformation that binds to Munc18‐1 (violet) and is opened by the Munc13‐1 MUN domain (cyan) to form the SNARE complex that triggers neurotransmitter release.

The involvement of calcium carriers and of the vacuole in the glucose-induced calcium signaling and activation of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.

, 2012
Previous work from our laboratories demonstrated that the sugar-induced activation of plasma membrane H+-ATPase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is dependent on calcium metabolism with the contribution of calcium influx from external medium.

The ducky^{2J} Mutation in Cacna2d2 Results in Reduced Spontaneous Purkinje Cell Activity and Altered Gene Expression [PDF]

, 2006
The mouse mutant ducky and its allele ducky^{2J} represent a model for absence epilepsy characterized by spike-wave seizures and cerebellar ataxia. These mice have mutations in Cacna2d2, which encodes the α₂δ-2 calcium channel subunit.
