Role of the Cation-Chloride-Cotransporters in Cardiovascular Disease
The SLC12 family of cation-chloride-cotransporters (CCCs) is comprised of potassium chloride cotransporters (KCCs), which mediate Cl− extrusion and sodium-potassium chloride cotransporters (N[K]CCs), which mediate Cl− loading.

Regulation of CLC-1 chloride channel biosynthesis by FKBP8 and Hsp90β. [PDF]
Mutations in human CLC-1 chloride channel are associated with the skeletal muscle disorder myotonia congenita. The disease-causing mutant A531V manifests enhanced proteasomal degradation of CLC-1.

Osteoclast over-activation leads to bone loss and chloride homeostasis is important for osteoclast function. Here, the authors show that Anoctamin 1 controls bone resorption by coupling Cl− channel activation with RANKL-RANK signaling transduction.

Serum Chloride and Heart Failure
Despite significant advances in management, heart failure continues to impose a significant epidemiologic burden with high prevalence and mortality rates. For decades, sodium has been the serum electrolyte most commonly associated with outcomes; however,

Increased intestinal carbonate precipitate abundance in the sea bream (Sparus aurata L.) in response to ocean acidification [PDF]
Marine fish contribute to the carbon cycle by producing mineralized intestinal precipitates generated as by-products of their osmoregulation. Here we aimed at characterizing the control of epithelial bicarbonate secretion and intestinal precipitate ...

Chloride Homeostasis in Central Neurons
The overall aim of the present thesis is to clarify the control of intracellular chloride homeostasis in central neurons, because of the critical role of chloride ions (Cl–) for neuronal function. Normal function of the central nervous system (CNS) depends on a delicate balance between neuronal excitation and inhibition.

The adipocyte hormone leptin sets the emergence of hippocampal inhibition in mice
Brain computations rely on a proper balance between excitation and inhibition which progressively emerges during postnatal development in rodent. γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmission supports inhibition in the adult brain but excites immature ...

An Unusual Combination of Neurological Manifestations and Sudden Vision Loss in a Child with Familial Hyperphosphatemic Tumoral Calcinosis [PDF]
Hyperphosphatemia in the absence of renal failure is an unusual occurrence, particularly in children, but is a common primary feature of familial hyperphosphatemic tumor calcinosis.

CO2-dependent opening of an inwardly rectifying K+ channel [PDF]
CO2 chemosensing is a vital function for the maintenance of life that helps to control acid–base balance. Most studies have reported that CO2 is measured via its proxy, pH. Here we report an inwardly rectifying channel, in outside-out excised patches
