The CFTR and ENaC debate: how important is ENaC in CF lung disease?
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by the loss of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) function and results in a respiratory phenotype that is characterized by dehydrated mucus and bacterial infections that affect CF patients throughout their lives.

Activation of TRPV1 by Capsaicin Regulates ENaC
ENaC is a constitutively open heterotrimeric channel which regulates Na+ transport in tight epithelia of the kidney, lungs, colon and anterior tongue containing fungiform taste buds. The amiloride-sensitive ENaC is comprised of aβg subunits.

BackgroundStreptococcus pneumoniae is a major etiologic agent of bacterial pneumonia. Autolysis and antibiotic-mediated lysis of pneumococci induce release of the pore-forming toxin, pneumolysin (PLY), their major virulence factor, which is a prominent ...

Lock, relax, load, and shoot: a molecular perspective on Nedd4 regulation
Structural basis of inactive and active states of the Nedd4 HECT E3 ligase subfamily, following a ‘lock, relax, load, and shoot’ mechanism. In the locked, autoinhibited state, intramolecular domain interactions restrain the HECT domain. Relaxation releases these restraints, allowing loading of ubiquitin onto the catalytic cysteine, followed by the ...

Abstract Inorganic nitrate may lower blood pressure (BP) and enhance natriuresis through nitric oxide (NO) mediated mechanisms. Studies have found inconsistent effects of NO on sodium excretion. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibition suggests increased NO promotes natriuresis, whereas inorganic nitrate studies remain inconclusive.
