TRP Channels in Human Prostate

The Scientific World Journal, 2010
This review gives an overview of morphological and functional characteristics in the human prostate. It will focus on the current knowledge about transient receptor potential (TRP) channels expressed in the human prostate, and their putative role in ...

U-shaped bilayer graphene channel transistor with very high Ion/Ioff ratio

, 2011
A novel graphene transistor architecture is reported. The transistor has a U-shaped geometry and was fabricated using a gallium focused ion beam (FIB). The channel conductance was tuned with a back gate.

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

Ion channels and epilepsy [PDF]

QJM, 2006
In order for cells to retain their integrity to water and yet permeate charged ions, the phospholipid cell membrane contains transmembrane proteins that allow the passage of specific ions from the interior of the cell to outside, and vice versa. There is a huge diversity of these ion channels.

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Electrophysiological classification of CACNA1G gene variants associated with neurodevelopmental and neurological disorders

Frontiers in Pharmacology
This study highlights the complementarity of automated patch-clamp (APC) and manual patch-clamp (MPC) approaches to describe the electrophysiological properties of eighteen Cav3.1 calcium channel variants associated with various neurological conditions ...

The Low-Threshold Calcium Channel Cav3.2 Determines Low-Threshold Mechanoreceptor Function

Cell Reports, 2015
The T-type calcium channel Cav3.2 emerges as a key regulator of sensory functions, but its expression pattern within primary afferent neurons and its contribution to modality-specific signaling remain obscure. Here, we elucidate this issue using a unique

Voltage-Gated K+/Na+ Channels and Scorpion Venom Toxins in Cancer

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Ion channels have recently been recognized as novel therapeutic targets in cancer research since they are overexpressed in different histological tissues, and their activity is linked to proliferation, tumor progression, angiogenesis, metastasis, and ...
