A perspective on the mechanism of the light-rise of the electro-oculogram [PDF]
, 2014 The light-rise of the electro-oculogram is believed to originate from a substance released from the rods after dark adaptation. The identity of this 'elusive' light-rise substance has not been demonstrated and therefore a new perspective on the light ...

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

Modeling L-type Calcium Channel with Phenylalkylamines [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2009 Phenylalkylamines (PAAs), a major class of L-type calcium channel (LCC) blockers, have aromatic rings A and B connected by a flexible chain with cyano and ammonium groups proximal to rings A and B, respectively. Structural aspects of ligand-channel interactions remain unclear.

L-type calcium channel modulates cystic kidney phenotype
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2014 In polycystic kidney disease (PKD), abnormal proliferation and genomic instability of renal epithelia have been associated with cyst formation and kidney enlargement. We recently showed that L-type calcium channel (CaV1.2) is localized to primary cilia of epithelial cells.

Parathyroid Hormone Enhances Mechanically Induced Bone Formation, Possibly Involving L-Type Voltage- Sensitive Calcium Channels [PDF]
, 2003 PTH and mechanical loading might act synergistically on bone formation. We tested the in vivo effect of the L-type voltage-sensitive calcium channel (VSCC) blocker, verapamil, on bone formation induced by human PTH-(1–34) (PTH) injection with or without ...

Cell surface interactome analysis identifies TSPAN4 as a negative regulator of PD‐L1 in melanoma
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Using cell surface proximity biotinylation, we identified tetraspanin TSPAN4 within the PD‐L1 interactome of melanoma cells. TSPAN4 negatively regulates PD‐L1 expression and lateral mobility by limiting its interaction with CMTM6 and promoting PD‐L1 degradation.

An Indole Alkaloid Extracted from Evodia rutaecarpa Inhibits Colonic Motility of Rats In Vitro
Gastroenterology Research and Practice, 2020 Evodiamine (Evo) is an indole alkaloid extracted from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Evodia rutaecarpa. Evo may regulate gastrointestinal motility, but the evidence is insufficient, and the mechanisms remain unknown.
