Functional expression of human NKCC1 from a synthetic cassette-based cDNA: introduction of extracellular epitope tags and removal of cysteines. [PDF]
The Na-K-Cl cotransporter (NKCC) couples the movement of Na(+), K(+), and Cl(-) ions across the plasma membrane of most animal cells and thus plays a central role in cellular homeostasis and human physiology.

ClC‐2 Contributes to Hypotonicity‐Induced Adrenal Aldosterone Secretion
ABSTRACT Aim The zona glomerulosa (ZG) of the adrenal cortex regulates blood pressure and electrolyte homeostasis through aldosterone production. In ZG cells, potassium and angiotensin II (Ang II) trigger calcium oscillations that drive aldosterone synthesis.

Pharmacotherapy for neonatal seizures: current knowledge and future perspectives [PDF]
Seizures are the most common neurological emergencies in the neonatal period and are associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. Seizures affect up to five per 1000 term births and population-based studies suggest that they occur even more ...

Abstract The principal processes that govern interstitial K+ ([K+]o) buffering in mouse optic nerve (MON), a central white matter tract, either directly consume energy (Na+–K+‐ATPase) or use transmembrane ion gradients created by energy‐dependent pumps to enable the K+ fluxes that maintain a stable [K+]o, and thus ready availability of utilisable ...

Research progress on Na+ ⁃ K+ ⁃ 2Cl- cotransporter 1 and its relationship to nervous system diseases
Na+ ⁃ K+ ⁃ 2Cl- cotransporter 1 (NKCC1) which plays an important role in the dynamic balance of Cl- ions, is one of the cation⁃chloride cotransporter. It is a membrane protein that transferred the mediates Na+ , K+ and Cl- .

Ischemic stroke induces microglial activation and BDNF–TrkB signaling, leading to KCC2 downregulation and seizure susceptibility. Pharmacological inhibition of microglia or TrkB and restoration of KCC2 function with the chloride extrusion enhancer CLP290 attenuate post‐ischemic seizures.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Colonic bicarbonate secretion is mediated by the chloride/bicarbonate exchanger SLC26A3 and the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Dysfunction of either causes luminal acidosis, altered mucus properties, and inflammation.

Spinal inhibition is required to generate coordinated outputs between antagonistic muscles during locomotion. It relies on low neuronal chloride concentration set by two cation-chloride cotransporters, NKCC1 and KCC2 which, respectively, pumps Cl- in or ...

Krisanaklan reduces CFTR‐dependent intestinal chloride and fluid secretion by inhibiting the Na+,K+‐ATPase and K+ channels in epithelial cells. Consequently, this natural, plant‐derived product may limit secretory diarrhea caused by a diverse array of microbial pathogens. However, by dissipating the transmembrane Na+ gradient, Krisanaklan also inhibits
