The R563Q Mutation of the Beta Subunit of the Epithelial Sodium Channel: Prevalence and Effect
Hypertension is a major worldwide predictor of morbidity and mortality. The search for genes that contribute to blood pressure is ongoing. The epithelial sodium channel genes were implicated when the beta subunit (SCNN1B, gene ID 6338) was found to have ...

Epithelial Sodium Channel (ENaC) Trafficking and COMMD Proteins
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), is assembled as a heterotrimer composed of three homologous subunits α or δ, β, and γ and is selectively permeable to Na + ions and plays an essential role in the regulation of sodium transport in the renal connecting tubule and collecting duct. Mutations

In many epithelial tissues in the body (e.g. kidney distal nephron, colon, airways) the rate of Na+ reabsorption is governed by the activity of the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC).

Both transient tachypnea of the newborn and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome have been associated with changes in gene expression of aquaporine-5 (AQP5) and the β subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (β-ENaC) in the respiratory epithelium ...

Non‐Invasive, High‐Resolution (1H2O) Metabolic Activity Diffusion Imaging [MADI] of Rat Glioma
We employed Metabolic Activity Diffusion Imaging [MADI] and 18FDG‐PET in rats with syngeneic RG2 glioblastoma brain tumors. MADI quantifies kio (the cellular H2O efflux rate constant), cell volume (V), and cell density (ρ), without the use of contrast agents. The kioV product quantifies the rate of water efflux per cell.

Lung organoids as a human system for Mycobacteria infection modeling and drug testing
Mycobacterial infections, including tuberculosis (TB) and infections by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), are still public health issues. In 2023, TB caused 1.25 million deaths, while NTM remain a clinical challenge for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).

Detection of Urinary Epithelial Sodium Channel (ENaC) Protein
Epithelial sodium Channel (ENaC) protein is an important substance in maintaining plasma sodium level. Its DNA sequences are similar in rat model with and without salt sensitivity, but the mRNA number increase in salt sensitive rat model with high salt diet. This condition is assumed to be similar in human.

Regulatory mechanisms of epithelial sodium channel
Epithelial sodium channels (ENaC) are of immense importance, controlling Na+ transport across epithelia and thus playing a critical role in all aspects of fluid clearance as well as numerous other functions.

Epithelial sodium channel: a ligand-gated channel?
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 ...
