Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2009 Channelopathies, defined as diseases that are caused by mutations in genes encoding ion channels, are associated with a wide variety of symptoms. Impaired chloride transport can cause diseases as diverse as cystic fibrosis, myotonia, epilepsy, hyperekplexia, lysosomal storage disease, deafness, renal salt loss, kidney stones and osteopetrosis.

Near‐Infrared Triggered Anion Transport Induces Cancer Cell Death
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Photo‐responsive transmembrane anion transporters that are activated with NIR light are reported. Experiments in cancer cells revealed that NIR activation of the ionophore triggered near‐IR light‐dependent chloride influx and triggered cell death. Abstract Artificial transmembrane anion carriers have shown potential in biological research and medicine,

Roles for Countercharge in the Voltage Sensor Domain of Ion Channels
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 Voltage-gated ion channels share a common structure typified by peripheral, voltage sensor domains. Their S4 segments respond to alteration in membrane potential with translocation coupled to ion permeation through a central pore domain.

Fever Unmasked Brugada Syndrome in Pediatric Patient: A Case Report [PDF]
, 2020 Introduction: Brugada syndrome is an arrhythmogenic disorder that is a known cause of sudden cardiac death. It is characterized by a pattern of ST segment elevation in the precordial leads on an electrocardiogram (EKG) due to a sodium channelopathy.Case ...

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2009 Human ether a go-go-related gene type 1 (hERG1) K+ channels conduct the rapid delayed rectifier K+ current and mediate action potential repolarization in the heart. Mutations in KCNH2 (the gene that encodes hERG1) causes LQT2, one of the most common forms of long QT syndrome, a disorder of cardiac repolarization that predisposes affected subjects to ...
