The role of GαO-mediated signaling in the rostral ventrolateral medulla oblongata in cardiovascular reflexes and control of cardiac ventricular excitability. [PDF]
The heart is controlled by the sympathetic and parasympathetic limbs of the autonomic nervous system with inhibitory signaling mechanisms recruited in both limbs.

Abstract Objective Effective solutions to obesity remain elusive, partly owing to its root in a positive energy balance (EB), which stems from the interplay of numerous traits spanning body size and composition, diet, physical activity, and metabolic profile. Nevertheless, EB‐contributing traits are typically studied in isolation. We integrate numerous

Repeated seizures lead to progressive ventilatory dysfunction in SS<i><sup>Kcnj16-/-</sup></i> rats.
This study demonstrated that repeated seizures in a novel rat model (SS Kcnj16−/− rats) caused a progressively greater ventilatory dysfunction in the immediate postictal period associated with brainstem serotonin (5-HT) suppression. Augmenting brain 5-HT with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor prevented the progressive ventilatory dysfunction ...

Kir5.1 regulates Nedd4-2-mediated ubiquitination of Kir4.1 in distal nephron. [PDF]
Kir4.1/5.1 heterotetramer participates in generating the negative cell membrane potential in distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and plays a critical role in determining the activity of Na-Cl cotransporter (NCC).

Caractérisation des canaux potassiques du tubule contourné proximal et des propriétés régulatrices des canaux chlorure de la membrane basolatérale des cellules intercalaires du tubule connecteur [PDF]
A 10 pS chloride channel at the basolateral side of connecting duct intercalated cells shares properties with the cloned ClC-K2 channel. Patch-clamp experiments show that its activity and the number of active channels increase with (i) membrane ...

Single-Cell Transcriptomes Reveal a Complex Cellular Landscape in the Middle Ear and Differential Capacities for Acute Response to Infection. [PDF]
Single-cell transcriptomics was used to profile cells of the normal murine middle ear. Clustering analysis of 6770 transcriptomes identified 17 cell clusters corresponding to distinct cell types: five epithelial, three stromal, three lymphocyte, two ...

Genetic Analysis of 17q Terminal Partial Trisomy
ABSTRACT Chromosomal trisomy syndrome is associated with diverse clinical phenotypes, including intellectual disability. Partial trisomy of the distal 17q is a rare anomaly with similar clinical features, including psychomotor and growth deficits, facial dysmorphism, and microcephaly.

Potassium channels in epithelial transport [PDF]
Epithelial cells in the kidney, gastrointestinal tract and exocrine glands are engaged in vectorial transport of salt and nutrients. In these tissues, K+ channels play an important role for the stabilization of membrane voltage and maintenance of the ...

Melatonin protects Kir2.1 function in an oxidative stress‐related model of aging neuroglia
The inward rectifying K+ channel Kir2.1 plays a major role in extracellular potassium buffering in the brain. Here we show that in cellular models of aging neuroglia characterized by an elevated oxidative stress, the Kir2.1‐induced current is dramatically reduced. This loss of function resulted from a reduction in protein abundance, with no alterations
