Expression cloning of the epithelial sodium channel [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 1995
Complex organisms take sodium from the external environment to achieve and maintain extracellular volume and blood pressure. Many sodium transporter systems have evolved, and among them the epithelial sodium channel plays a fundamental role in ...

The epithelial sodium channel and the processes of wound healing [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2019
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) mediates passive sodium transport across the apical membranes of sodium absorbing epithelia, like the distal nephron, the intestine, and the lung airways.

Epithelial sodium channel: a ligand-gated channel? [PDF]

open access: yesNephron Physiology, 2004
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is a key component of the transepithelial Na+ transport. In epithelia, it is responsible for the maintenance of Na+ balance (which in turn controls extracellular fluid volume and arterial blood pressure) and the ...

Physiological regulation of epithelial sodium channel by proteolysis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Nephrology & Hypertension, 2011
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Activation of epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) by proteolysis appears to be relevant for day-to-day physiological regulation of channel activity in kidney and other epithelial tissues.

The Epithelial Sodium Channel-An Underestimated Drug Target. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci, 2023
Epithelial sodium channels (ENaC) are part of a complex network of interacting biochemical pathways and as such are involved in several disease states. Dependent on site and type of mutation, gain- or loss-of-function generated symptoms occur which span from asymptomatic to life-threatening disorders such as Liddle syndrome, cystic fibrosis or ...

Functional Domains of the Epithelial Sodium Channel [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2005
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) plays an important role in ion transport of many organ systems. In kidney, colon, and sweat gland, ENaC-mediated transepithelial sodium transport helps to adjust sodium excretion in the urine, feces, and sweat to fulfill homeostatic requirements.

Subunit Stoichiometry of the Epithelial Sodium Channel [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
The epithelial Na+ Channel (ENaC) mediates Na+ reabsorption in a variety of epithelial tissues. ENaC is composed of three homologous subunits, termed alpha, beta, and gamma. All three subunits participate in channel formation as the absence of any one subunit results in a significant reduction or complete abrogation of Na+ current expression in Xenopus

Proteolytic Activation of the Epithelial Sodium Channel in Nephrotic Syndrome by Proteasuria: Concept and Therapeutic Potential

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Nephrology, 2020
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is expressed in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron, and it determines the final urinary sodium concentration.

Lipopolysaccharide modifies amiloride-sensitive Na+ transport processes across human airway cells: role of mitogen-activated protein kinases ERK 1/2 and 5 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are potent inducers of proinflammatory signaling pathways via the activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-KB) and mitogenactivated protein kinase (MAPK), causing changes in the processes that control lung fluid ...
