Mibefradil and Flunarizine, Two T-Type Calcium Channel Inhibitors, Protect Mice against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2020
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).

FM1-43 dye behaves as a permeant blocker of the hair-cell mechanotransducer channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Hair cells in mouse cochlear cultures are selectively labeled by brief exposure to FM1-43, a styryl dye used to study endocytosis and exocytosis. Real-time confocal microscopy indicates that dye entry is rapid and via the apical surface.

FM1-43 reveals membrane recycling in adult inner hair cells of the mammalian cochlea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Neural transmission of complex sounds demands fast and sustained rates of synaptic release from the primary cochlear receptors, the inner hair cells (IHCs). The cells therefore require efficient membrane recycling.

Cell surface interactome analysis identifies TSPAN4 as a negative regulator of PD‐L1 in melanoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Using cell surface proximity biotinylation, we identified tetraspanin TSPAN4 within the PD‐L1 interactome of melanoma cells. TSPAN4 negatively regulates PD‐L1 expression and lateral mobility by limiting its interaction with CMTM6 and promoting PD‐L1 degradation.

Cryo-EM structure of a fungal mitochondrial calcium uniporter. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) is a highly selective calcium channel localized to the inner mitochondrial membrane. Here, we describe the structure of an MCU orthologue from the fungus Neosartorya fischeri (NfMCU) determined to 3.8 Å ...

A chloride channel in rat and human axons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Current recordings from single chloride channels were obtained from excised and cell-attached patches of rat and human axons. In rat axons the channels showed an outwardly rectifying current-voltage relationship with a slope conductance of 33 pS at ...

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

LERCANIDIPINE, CALCIUM CHANNEL BLOCKER OF THE THIRD GENERATION: NEW POSSIBILITIES IN THE TREATMENT OF ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

open access: yesРациональная фармакотерапия в кардиологии, 2015
Classification, modes of action and clinical effects of calcium channel blockers are presented. Advantages of the third generation of dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers are considered.

Role of the TRPM4 Channel in Cardiovascular Physiology and Pathophysiology

open access: yesCells, 2018
The transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 4 (TRPM4) channel influences calcium homeostasis during many physiological activities such as insulin secretion, immune response, respiratory reaction, and cerebral vasoconstriction. This

Calcium Channel Blockers

open access: yesMedical 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 ...
