The effect of cerium dioxide nanoparticles on the viability of hippocampal neurons in Alzheimer’s disease modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023
The possibilities of using nanoparticle materials based on cerium dioxide (CNPs) are exciting since they are low toxic and have specific redox, antiradical properties.

TRP Channels Interactome as a Novel Therapeutic Target in Breast Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Breast cancer is one of the most frequent cancer types worldwide and the first cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Although significant therapeutic advances have been achieved with drugs such as tamoxifen and trastuzumab, breast cancer still caused ...

SCN1A channelopathies: Navigating from genotype to neural circuit dysfunction

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
The SCN1A gene is strongly associated with epilepsy and plays a central role for supporting cortical excitation-inhibition balance through the expression of NaV1.1 within inhibitory interneurons.

Ion channel diseases [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2002
Ion channels serve many functions apart from electrical signal transduction: chemical signalling (Ca(2+) as a second messenger), transepithelial transport, regulation of cytoplasmic or vesicular ion concentration and pH, and regulation of cell volume. Therefore, ion channel dysfunction can cause diseases in many tissues.

Exploring the Two Coupled Conformational Changes That Activate the Munc18-1/Syntaxin-1 Complex

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Calcium-dependent synaptic vesicle exocytosis is mediated by SNARE complex formation. The transition from the Munc18-1/syntaxin-1 complex to the SNARE complex is catalyzed by the Munc13-1 MUN domain and involves at least two conformational changes ...

Biophysical characterization and modelling of SCN1A gain-of-function predicts interneuron hyperexcitability and a predisposition to network instability through homeostatic plasticity

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
SCN1A gain-of-function variants are associated with early onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) that possess distinct clinical features compared to Dravet syndrome caused by SCN1A loss-of-function.

Ion Channel Pharmacology [PDF]

open access: yesNeurotherapeutics, 2007
Because ion channels are involved in many cellular processes, drugs acting on ion channels have long been used for the treatment of many diseases, especially those affecting electrically excitable tissues. The present review discusses the pharmacology of voltage-gated and neurotransmitter-gated ion channels involved in neurologic diseases, with ...

The Role of Governmental Credit in Hemispheric Trade [PDF]

open access: yes, 1941
Ion channels in the plasma membrane are important for the apoptotic process. Different types of voltage-gated ion channels are up-regulated early in the apoptotic process and block of these channels prevents or delays apoptosis.

Genetic Ablation of G Protein-Gated Inwardly Rectifying K+ Channels Prevents Training-Induced Sinus Bradycardia

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Background: Endurance athletes are prone to bradyarrhythmias, which in the long-term may underscore the increased incidence of pacemaker implantation reported in this population.
