Imbalanced expression of cation-chloride cotransporters as a potential therapeutic target in an Angelman syndrome mouse model

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Angelman syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by loss of function of the maternally expressed UBE3A gene. Treatments for the main manifestations, including cognitive dysfunction or epilepsy, are still under development.

Glial Chloride Homeostasis Under Transient Ischemic Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
High water permeabilities permit rapid adjustments of glial volume upon changes in external and internal osmolarity, and pathologically altered intracellular chloride concentrations ([Cl–]int) and glial cell swelling are often assumed to represent early ...

Balance of Na+, K+, and Cl– Unidirectional Fluxes in Normal and Apoptotic U937 Cells Computed With All Main Types of Cotransporters

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Fluxes of monovalent ions through the multiple pathways of the plasma membrane are highly interdependent, and their assessment by direct measurement is difficult or even impossible.

Cation-Chloride Cotransporters, Na/K Pump, and Channels in Cell Water and Ion Regulation: In silico and Experimental Studies of the U937 Cells Under Stopping the Pump and During Regulatory Volume Decrease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Cation-coupled chloride cotransporters play a key role in generating the Cl– electrochemical gradient on the cell membrane, which is important for regulation of many cellular processes.

Cellular mechanisms underlying the inhibitory effect of flufenamic acid on chloride secretion in human intestinal epithelial cells

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
Intestinal Cl− secretion is involved in the pathogenesis of secretory diarrheas including cholera. We recently demonstrated that flufenamic acid (FFA) suppressed Vibrio cholerae El Tor variant-induced intestinal fluid secretion via mechanisms involving ...

Phosphorylation and transport in the Na-K-2Cl cotransporters, NKCC1 and NKCC2A, compared in HEK-293 cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Na-K-2Cl cotransporters help determine cell composition and volume. NKCC1 is widely distributed whilst NKCC2 is only found in the kidney where it plays a vital role reabsorbing 20% of filtered NaCl.

Inflammation alters cation chloride cotransporter expression in sensory neurons

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2004
Cation chloride cotransporters have been proposed to play a role in the modulation of neuronal responses to γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). In conditions of neuronal damage, where neuronal excitability is increased, the expression of the KCC2 transporter is ...
