Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor binding: autoradiographic localization in rat brain
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is a second messenger generated by stimulation of the phosphoinositide cycle, thought to release calcium from intracellular stores. We have mapped the distribution of 3H- inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor binding sites in

Antipsychotics‐Induced Hyposalivation Mediated by Impaired Salivary Ca2+ Signaling
ABSTRACT Objectives Antipsychotic‐induced salivary dysfunction such as hyposalivation is a prevalent clinical challenge that severely compromises oral health and quality of life. Although typical and atypical antipsychotics have their therapeutic target in the central nervous system, their direct molecular mechanisms within the salivary glands remain ...

Ion Channel Dysfunction and Therapeutic Targeting in Salivary Gland Disorders
ABSTRACT Objective Salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia represent major clinical complications of radiation therapy, autoimmune disorders such as Sjögren's disease, and inherited epithelial ion transport defects. This review integrates current knowledge on ion channel dysfunction as a central mechanistic driver of salivary gland pathology and ...

GABA(A) receptor phospho-dependent modulation is regulated by phospholipase C-related inactive protein type 1, a novel protein phosphatase 1 anchoring protein [PDF]
GABA(A) receptors are critical in controlling neuronal activity. Here, we examined the role for phospholipase C-related inactive protein type 1 (PRIP-1), which binds and inactivates protein phosphatase 1alpha (PP1alpha) in facilitating GABA(A) receptor ...

Cyclic AMP Recruits a Discrete Intracellular Ca2+ Store by Unmasking Hypersensitive IP3 Receptors
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) stimulates Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and the response is potentiated by 3′,5′-cyclic AMP (cAMP).

Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

The Ins(1,4,5)P3 regioisomers, Ins(1,4,6)P3 and Ins(1,3,6)P3, which can mimic the 1,4,5-arrangement on the inositol ring of Ins(1,4,5)P3, were examined for Ca2+ release by using four types of saponin-permeabilized cell possessing various abundances of receptor subtypes, with special reference to the relation of potency to receptor subtype. Ins(1,4,6)P3

During axon guidance, growth cones navigate toward attractive cues by inserting new membrane on the cue side. This process depends on Ca2+ release from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ channels, but the Ca2+ sensor and effector governing this asymmetric ...

Calcium‐activated chloride channels in pericytes and their role in regulating organ blood flow
Abstract figure legend Pericytes are microvascular mural cells with diverse roles. Contractile pericytes directly regulate local perfusion, while non‐contractile pericytes coordinate upstream vascular contractility via propagating electrical signals.

Abstract figure legend The calcium‐activated chloride (ClCa) channel TMEM16A (also known as ANO1) plays critical roles in ion transport, neurotransmission and smooth muscle contraction. Dysregulation of TMEM16A channel activity contributes to the development and progression of various diseases.
