CaMKII-dependent regulation of cardiac Na(+) homeostasis. [PDF]
, 2014 Na(+) homeostasis is a key regulator of cardiac excitation and contraction. The cardiac voltage-gated Na(+) channel, NaV1.5, critically controls cell excitability, and altered channel gating has been implicated in both inherited and acquired arrhythmias.

A Short Review on the Development of Salt Tolerant Cultivars in Rice [PDF]
, 2016 Rice is staple food for half of the world. With a population of almost 9.6 billion by the year 2050, there is a dire need of developing techniques to improve the crop plants, not only in terms of better yield but also to withstand harsh environmental ...

Ltc1 is an ER-localized sterol transporter and a component of ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts. [PDF]
, 2015 Organelle contact sites perform fundamental functions in cells, including lipid and ion homeostasis, membrane dynamics, and signaling. Using a forward proteomics approach in yeast, we identified new ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts specified by an

Golgi pH, Ion and Redox Homeostasis: How Much Do They Really Matter?
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019 Exocytic and endocytic compartments each have their own unique luminal ion and pH environment that is important for their normal functioning. A failure to maintain this environment – the loss of homeostasis – is not uncommon.

The essential roles of metal ions in insect homeostasis and physiology [PDF]
, 2017 Metal ions play distinct roles in living organisms, including insects. Some, like sodium and potassium, are central players in osmoregulation and ‘blood and guts’ transport physiology, and have been implicated in cold adaptation.

Autophagy: A role in metal ion homeostasis? [PDF]
Autophagy, 2008 Nutrient limitation is one of the most common forms of stress encountered by microorganisms in the environment. Surviving this stress depends upon a number of integrated responses, one of the most important of which is autophagy. When the filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus becomes nutrient deprived it undergoes two important processes: the ...

A Missing Link in Radial Ion Transport: Ion Transporters in the Endodermis
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 In higher plants, roots have important functions, such as the acquisition of water and ions, as well as transportation into the aerial parts of the plant via the xylem vessels.
