Ion homeostasis in the ear: mechanisms, maladies, and management [PDF]
Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 2010 To describe ion and water homeostatic mechanisms in the inner ear, how they are compromised in hearing disorders, and what treatments are employed to restore auditory function.The ion and water transport functions in the inner ear help maintain the proper endolymph K concentration required for hair cell function. Gene defects and idiopathic alterations

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Calcineurin B-like protein-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) play essential roles in plant abiotic stress response. In order to better understand salt tolerance, we cloned and analyzed the NtCIPK9 gene from the halophyte Nitraria tangutorum ...

Homeostasis, failure of homeostasis and degenerate ion channel regulation
Current Opinion in Physiology, 2018 Most neurons express a wide variety of ion channels with diverse properties, providing a rich toolbox for tuning neural function. Coexpressed channel types are often degenerate: they share overlapping roles in shaping electrophysiological properties. This can allow one set of channels to compensate the role of others, thus making nervous systems robust

Industrial Crops and ProductsIon homeostasis is essential for plant growth and development, yet its regulatory mechanisms remain largely elusive. Previous studies have identified a non-specific lipid transfer protein (BnLTP_C09) in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) that is ...

Antimalarial drugs disrupt ion homeostasis in malarial parasites
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2007 Plasmodium chabaudi malaria parasite organelles are major elements for ion homeostasis and cellular signaling and also target for antimalarial drugs. By using confocal imaging of intraerythrocytic parasites we demonstrated that the dye acridine orange ...

Homeostatic response of calcium and potassium ions in Microcystis spp. and Chlorella to MC-LR
Ecotoxicology and Environmental SafetyCyanobacteria and green microalgae often co-exist during toxic algal blooms, but the influence of microcystins (MCs) on ionic homeostasis of these algae is not well-studied.

Role of iron oxide nanoparticles in maize (Zea mays L.) to enhance salinity stress tolerance
Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-NapocaSoils have been getting worse over time, which has led to lower crop yields and nutritional value. This is because of too many conventional fertilizers, anthropogenic activities, and climate change.
