Antipsychotics‐Induced Hyposalivation Mediated by Impaired Salivary Ca2+ Signaling
ABSTRACT Objectives Antipsychotic‐induced salivary dysfunction such as hyposalivation is a prevalent clinical challenge that severely compromises oral health and quality of life. Although typical and atypical antipsychotics have their therapeutic target in the central nervous system, their direct molecular mechanisms within the salivary glands remain ...

Ion Channel Dysfunction and Therapeutic Targeting in Salivary Gland Disorders
ABSTRACT Objective Salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia represent major clinical complications of radiation therapy, autoimmune disorders such as Sjögren's disease, and inherited epithelial ion transport defects. This review integrates current knowledge on ion channel dysfunction as a central mechanistic driver of salivary gland pathology and ...

Calcium‐activated chloride channels in pericytes and their role in regulating organ blood flow
Abstract figure legend Pericytes are microvascular mural cells with diverse roles. Contractile pericytes directly regulate local perfusion, while non‐contractile pericytes coordinate upstream vascular contractility via propagating electrical signals.

hERG1 channels and potential therapeutics for long QT syndrome
Abstract figure legend Prolonged QT results from hERG1 channel dysfunction. (A) Physiological anterograde trafficking of hERG1 channels to the plasma membrane, leading to a normal electrocardiogram. (B) Prolonged QT results from the presence of fewer hERG1 channels on the plasma membrane due to decreased anterograde trafficking or reduced function due ...

Can Hormonal Therapy Improve the Outcomes of mTESE in Patients With Non‐Obstructive Azoospermia?
ABSTRACT Background Non‐obstructive azoospermia (NOA) represents the most severe form of male infertility. Hypogonadism is common in NOA patients, and normal testosterone (T) levels are considered essential for spermatogenesis. Fertility‐preserving hormonal therapy (FpHT) has been proposed to optimize hormonal milieu and improve sperm retrieval rates ...
