Amiloride-Sensitive Sodium Channels and Pulmonary Edema
The development of pulmonary edema can be considered as a combination of alveolar flooding via increased fluid filtration, impaired alveolar-capillary barrier integrity, and disturbed resolution due to decreased alveolar fluid clearance.

The use of cyclosporine A (CsA) in transplant recipients is limited due to its side effects of causing severe hypertension. We have previously shown that CsA increases the activity of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in cultured distal nephron cells.

Deletion of annexin 2 light chain p11 in nociceptors causes deficits in somatosensory coding and pain behavior [PDF]
The S100 family protein p11 (S100A10, annexin 2 light chain) is involved in the trafficking of the voltage-gated sodium channel Na(V)1.8, TWIK-related acid-sensitive K+ channel (TASK-1), the ligand-gated ion channels acid-sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a ...

We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

Physiologic regulation of the epithelial sodium channel by phosphatidylinositides [PDF]
Epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity is limiting for sodium reabsorption in the distal nephron. Humans regulate blood pressure by fine-tuning sodium balance through control of ENaC. ENaC dysfunction causes some hypertensive and renal salt wasting diseases. Thus, it is critical to understand the cellular mechanisms controlling ENaC activity.ENaC is

(Pro)Renin receptor mediates obesity-induced antinatriuresis and elevated blood pressure via upregulation of the renal epithelial sodium channel. [PDF]
Recent studies have demonstrated that the renal (pro)renin receptor (PRR) regulates expression of the alpha subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (α-ENaC).

Peripheral localization of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in the apical membrane of bronchial epithelial cells [PDF]
What is the central question of this study? What is the precise subcellular localization of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in human airway epithelium? What is the main finding and its importance?

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

Wuji Wan ameliorates ulcerative colitis by restoring impaired membrane transport
IntroductionWuji Wan (WJW) is a classical Chinese formula traditionally prescribed for diarrhea/dysentery and abdominal pain. In ulcerative colitis (UC), inflammatory diarrhea reflects not only mucosal inflammation but also inflammation-linked disruption

Effect of epithelial sodium channel blockade in hypertensive Nigerians [PDF]
Background: Approximately 60% of hypertensive Nigerians are salt-sensitive. The demonstration of genetic linkage between Liddle syndrome and epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) suggests the physiological involvement of ENaC in blood pressure regulation ...
