Mechanism of Fluid Reabsorption in Kidney Proximal Tubule: Interplay Between Lateral Na<sup>+</sup>/K<sup>+</sup>-ATPase and AQP1 and SGLT1 Mediated Water Fluxes. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aims The mechanism of isosmotic water reabsorption in the kidney proximal tubule, with a focus on the interaction between the lateral Na+/K+‐ATPase, apical water pathways mediated by AQP1 and SGLT1, and paracellular water flow through Claudin‐2. Methods A mathematical model of proximal tubular transport was used to compute coupled ion, solute,

Proteases, ENaCs and cystic fibrosis [PDF]
Airway epithelia maintain a fluid cushion supporting a mucous layer that traps inhaled particulates. This fluid layer facilitates ciliary beating that propels mucus out of the airway. The height of this fluid cushion is carefully regulated by balancing rates of fluid secretion mediated by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR ...

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death in the world, and has no radical treatment. Inhibition of amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium ion channel (ENaC) has now been considered as a potential therapeutic ...

ENaC activity in collecting ducts modulates NCC in cirrhotic mice. [PDF]
Cirrhosis is a frequent and severe disease, complicated by renal sodium retention leading to ascites and oedema. A better understanding of the complex mechanisms responsible for renal sodium handling could improve clinical management of sodium retention.

Assessment of the CFTR and ENaC association [PDF]
Abstract Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common lethal genetic disorders. It results primarily from mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (cftr) gene. These mutations cause inadequate functioning of CFTR, which in turn leads to the severe disruption of transport function in several epithelia ...

Landscape of ENaC regulation in the kidney [PDF]
as the real estate maxim goes, “There are three things that matter in property: location, location, location.” The same could be said about epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) regulation in the mouse kidney.

Cav3.2 calcium channel interactions with the epithelial sodium channel ENaC
This study describes the functional interaction between Cav3.2 calcium channels and the Epithelial Sodium Channel (ENaC). β-ENaC subunits showed overlapping expression with endogenous Cav3.2 calcium channels in the thalamus and hypothalamus as detected ...
