Role of quercetin in modulating chloride transport in the intestine

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Epithelial chloride channels provide the pathways for fluid secretion in the intestine. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and calcium-activated chloride channels (CaCCs) are the main chloride channels in the luminal membrane of ...

Comparative Effects of Chloride Channel Inhibitors on LRRC8/VRAC-Mediated Chloride Conductance

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
Chloride channels play an essential role in a variety of physiological functions and in human diseases. Historically, the field of chloride channels has long been neglected owing to the lack of powerful selective pharmacological agents that are needed to

Development of chloride channel modulators

open access: yesKidney International, 1995
Chloride channels are ubiquitously distributed, biophysically varied and functionally diverse. Despite the known contribution of chloride channels to the physiology of various cell types and the pathology of several diseases, high affinity ligands are not available to study these channels.

Chloride channels in the eel intestine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 1999
ABSTRACT Patches of freshly isolated epithelial cells from eel Anguilla anguilla intestine bathed by the same solution on both sides in the cell-attached configuration had conductances of 57.0±1.8 pS (for positive voltages) and 13.3±0.7 pS (for negative voltages) (means ± S.E.M., N=25).

Exploring glutamate-gated chloride channels in cancer cells: A narrative review on a hypothetical mechanism underpinning the anticancer effects of antiparasitic drugs

open access: yesСибирский научный медицинский журнал
Chloride channels play a fundamental role in cellular homeostasis, influencing ion balance, pH regulation, and apoptotic signaling. While glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCl) are traditionally restricted to invertebrates, recent evidence suggests ...

Safety and efficacy of a combined paste formulation of a botanical extract of the latex of Croton lechleri (SB-300, Neonorm foal™) with probiotics for the treatment of watery diarrhea in nursing foals

open access: yesAnalecta Veterinaria, 2017
La diarrea es un desorden común en potrillos lactantes, y no se dispone de antidiarreicos antisecretorios específicos. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la seguridad y eficacia de una formulación en pasta con cubierta entérica del extracto botánico ...

Ion channel expression in the developing enteric nervous system. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The enteric nervous system arises from neural crest-derived cells (ENCCs) that migrate caudally along the embryonic gut. The expression of ion channels by ENCCs in embryonic mice was investigated using a PCR-based array, RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry ...

Positive modulation of the TMEM16B mediated currents by TRPV4 antagonist

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021
Calcium-activated chloride channels (CaCCs) play important roles in many physiological processes and their malfunction is implicated in diverse pathologies such as cancer, asthma, and hypertension.

Placental Chloride Channels: A Review

open access: yesPlacenta, 2009
The human placental syncytiotrophoblast (hSTB) is a polarized epithelial structure, that forms the main barrier to materno-fetal exchange. The chloride (Cl(-)) channels in other epithelial tissues contribute to several functions, such as maintenance of the membrane potential, volume regulation, absorption and secretion.

Glutamate-gated Chloride Channels [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls) are found only in protostome invertebrate phyla but are closely related to mammalian glycine receptors. They have a number of roles in these animals, controlling locomotion and feeding and mediating sensory inputs into behavior.
