Capsaicin-Induced Ca2+ Influx and Constriction of the Middle Meningeal Artery [PDF]

, 2014
Research in the past on transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1) has been limited to mainly nervous tissue TRPV1 because of the channel’s role in pain perception.

Calcium-sensing receptor activation increases cell-cell adhesion and ß-cell function [PDF]

, 2012
Background/Aims: The extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is expressed in pancreatic β-cells where it is thought to facilitate cell-to-cell communication and augment insulin secretion.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Cortisol modulates calcium release-activated calcium channel gating in fish hepatocytes

Scientific Reports, 2021
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are rapidly released in response to stress and play an important role in the physiological adjustments to re-establish homeostasis.

Calcium Channel Engineering [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2015
High-voltage-activated calcium (CaV) channels convert electrical signals into Ca2+ ion influx to trigger biological responses in excitable cells. CaV channel dysfunction underlies many cardiovascular and neurological diseases, from cardiac arrhythmias to autism. Modulation of CaV channels by intracellular signaling proteins, Ca2+ ions and various small

From omics to AI—mapping the pathogenic pathways in type 2 diabetes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Integrating multi‐omics data with AI‐based modelling (unsupervised and supervised machine learning) identify optimal patient clusters, informing AI‐driven accurate risk stratification. Digital twins simulate individual trajectories in real time, guiding precision medicine by matching patients to targeted therapies.

Inhibition of synaptic transmission and G protein modulation by synthetic CaV2.2 Ca2+ channel peptides [PDF]

, 2011
: Modulation of presynaptic voltage-dependent Ca+ channels is a major means of controlling neurotransmitter release. The CaV 2.2 Ca2+ channel subunit contains several inhibitory interaction sites for Gβγ subunits, including the amino terminal (NT) and I ...

Calcium channels and migraine

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2013
Missense mutations in CACNA1A, the gene that encodes the pore-forming α1 subunit of human voltage-gated Ca(V)2.1 (P/Q-type) calcium channels, cause a rare form of migraine with aura (familial hemiplegic migraine type 1: FHM1). Migraine is a common disabling brain disorder whose key manifestations are recurrent attacks of unilateral headache that may be

Thermostable neutral metalloprotease from Geobacillus sp. EA1 does not share thermolysin's preference for substrates with leucine at the P1′ position

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Knowing how proteases recognise preferred substrates facilitates matching proteases to applications. The S1′ pocket of protease EA1 directs cleavage to the N‐terminal side of hydrophobic residues, particularly leucine. The S1′ pocket of thermolysin differs from EA's at only one position (leucine in place of phenylalanine), which decreases cleavage ...

Structural basis for Ca2+ selectivity of a voltage-gated calcium channel

Nature, 2013
Voltage-gated calcium (CaV) channels catalyse rapid, highly selective influx of Ca2+ into cells despite a 70-fold higher extracellular concentration of Na+. How CaV channels solve this fundamental biophysical problem remains unclear.
