Kv7 and Kv11 channels in myometrial regulation.

open access: yes, 2013
Ion channels play a key role in defining myometrial contractility. Modulation of ion channel populations is proposed to underpin gestational changes in uterine contractility associated with the transition from uterine quiescence to active labour.

Regulatory Mechanisms and Pathophysiological Significance of IP3 Receptors and Ryanodine Receptors in Drug Dependence

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2013
Calcium is a ubiquitous intracellular signaling molecule required for initiating and regulating neuronal functions. Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in the endoplasmic reticulum into intracellular spaces via intracellular Ca2+–releasing channels ...

Pharmacology of L-type Calcium Channels: Novel Drugs for Old Targets?

open access: yesCurrent Molecular Pharmacology, 2015
Inhibition of voltage-gated L-type calcium channels by organic calcium channel blockers is a well-established pharmacodynamic concept for the treatment of hypertension and cardiac ischemia.

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Iron Administration Affects Cardiac Calcium Channel Expression in Mice: The Role of Cardiac Calcium Channel Expression in The Heart of Iron Overload Mice Model

open access: yesIndonesian Biomedical Journal, 2020
BACKGROUND: Iron-overload cardiomyopathy (IOC) is a major comorbidity in patients with chronic repetitive blood transfusion due to myocardial iron uptake that facilitated by calcium channels.

Calcium-Permeable Channels Cooperation for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Rheumatoid arthritis is a common autoimmune disease that results from the deposition of antibodies–autoantigens in the joints, leading to long-lasting inflammation.

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Calcium Channels and Calcium-Binding Proteins

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Signals of nerve impulses are transmitted to excitatory cells to induce the action of organs via the activation of Ca2+ entry through voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (VGCC), which are classified based on their activation threshold into high- and low-voltage activated channels, expressed specifically for each organ [...]

Dimethyl fumarate combined with cisplatin at subcytotoxic doses sensitizes cervical cancer toward ferroptosis and apoptosis through GSH restriction and p53 (re)activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.
