Isradipine antagonizes hypobaric hypoxia induced CA1 damage and memory impairment: Complementary roles of L-type calcium channel and NMDA receptors

Neurobiology of Disease, 2009
Hypobaric hypoxia leads to cognitive dysfunctions due to increase in intracellular calcium through ion channels. The purpose of this study was to examine the temporal contribution of L-type calcium channels and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) in ...

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Calcium homeostasis and role of ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1) in immune cells [PDF]

, 2010
Ryanodine receptors are intracellular Ca2+ release channels located in the membrane of the Endoplasmatic/Sarcoplasmatic Reticulum. Ryanodine receptor 1 isoform is preferentially expressed in skeletal muscle where it is responsible for release of Ca2 ...

Natural L-type calcium channels antagonists from Chinese medicine

Chinese Medicine
L-type calcium channels (LTCCs), the largest subfamily of voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), are the main channels for Ca2+ influx during extracellular excitation.

12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid participates in angiotensin II afferent arteriolar vasoconstriction by activating L-type calcium channels

Journal of Lipid Research, 2003
The lipoxygenase (LO) metabolite, 12(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid [12(S)-HETE], constricts renal vessels, contributes to the vascular response to angiotensin, and has been implicated in cardiovascular and renal diseases.

Treatment with KCL‐286, a first‐in‐class retinoic acid receptor‐β (RARβ) agonist, ameliorates neuronal DNA damage and inflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...

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.

Altered expression of the voltage-gated calcium channel subunit α2δ-1: a comparison between two experimental models of epilepsy and a sensory nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain. [PDF]

, 2014
The auxiliary α2δ-1 subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels is up-regulated in dorsal root ganglion neurons following peripheral somatosensory nerve damage, in several animal models of neuropathic pain.

The pharmacology of hSK1 Ca2+-activated K+ channels expressed in mammalian cell lines. [PDF]

, 2000
The pharmacology of hSK1, a small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel, was studied in mammalian cell lines (HEK293 and COS-7). In these cell types, hSK1 forms an apamin-sensitive channel with an IC(50) for apamin of 8 nM in HEK293 cells and ...
