Glial Chloride Homeostasis Under Transient Ischemic Stress
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 ...

Lacosamide decreases neonatal seizures without increasing apoptosis
Abstract Objective Many seizing neonates fail to respond to first‐line anticonvulsant medications. Phenobarbital, an allosteric modulator of γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors, has low efficacy in treating neonatal seizures and causes neuronal apoptosis. Nonetheless, it is one of the most used anticonvulsants in this age group.

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

The electroneutral Na+-(K+)-Cl− cotransport family
Recently the molecular identification of the major electroneutral sodium-potassium-chloride entry mechanisms present on apical membranes of distal nephron segments of the mammalian kidney, on basolateral membranes of many non-renal epithelial cells and on certain non-epithelial tissues has been achieved. These transporters represent a major pathway for

Abstract The kidneys, by equilibrating the outputs to the inputs, are essential for maintaining the constant volume, pH, and electrolyte composition of the internal milieu. Inability to do so, either because of internal kidney dysfunction (primary alteration) or because of some external factors (secondary alteration), leads to pathologies of varying ...

AP2S1 regulates APP degradation through late endosome–lysosome fusion in cells and APP/PS1 mice
Fission events at endo‐lyso interface could be favored in the presence of AP2S1, which is reminiscent of membrane fission during endocytosis. In contrast, lack of AP2S1 may inhibit this process, and alternatively facilitate endo‐lyso fusion and content exchange, leading to lysosomal degradation of APP.
