Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

ABSTRACT Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by pathogenic variants in ABCC6, leading to progressive calcification of elastic fibers. Although PXE typically presents in adolescence with dermatologic or ocular manifestations, early vascular involvement, including pediatric hypertension, is increasingly recognized.

ABSTRACT Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are commonly housed in public aquariums due to their ecological significance and educational value. The common guitarfish (Rhinobatos rhinobatos), currently listed as ‘Critically Endangered’ by the IUCN, is particularly susceptible to population declines due to overfishing and bycatch.

Hydrochlorothiazide in CLDN16 mutation [PDF]
Background. Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) is applied in the therapy of familial hypomagnesaemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis (FHHNC) caused by claudin-16 (CLDN16) mutation. However, the short-term efficacy of HCT to reduce hypercalciuria in FHHNC
