Age-appropriate potassium clearance from perinatal cerebrospinal fluid depends on choroid plexus NKCC1

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2023
Regulation of the volume and electrolyte composition of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is vital for brain development and function. The Na-K-Cl co-transporter NKCC1 in the choroid plexus (ChP) plays key roles in regulating CSF volume by co-transporting ...

Astrocytic NKCC1 inhibits seizures by buffering Cl and antagonizing neuronal NKCC1 at GABAergic synapses

open access: yesEpilepsia, 2023
AbstractObjectiveA pathological excitatory action of the major inhibitory neurotransmitter γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) has been observed in epilepsy. Blocking the Cl− importer NKCC1 with bumetanide is expected to reduce the neuronal intracellular Cl− concentration ([Cl−]i) and thereby attenuate the excitatory GABA response. Accordingly, several clinical

Seizures regulate the cation-Cl− cotransporter NKCC1 in a hamster model of epilepsy: implications for GABA neurotransmission

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundThe balance between the activity of the Na+/K+/Cl− cotransporter (NKCC1) that introduces Cl− into the cell and the K+/Cl− cotransporter (KCC2) that transports Cl− outside the cell is critical in determining the inhibitory or excitatory outcome ...

Lateral Diffusion of NKCC1 Contributes to Chloride Homeostasis in Neurons and Is Rapidly Regulated by the WNK Signaling Pathway

open access: yesCells, 2023
An upregulation of the Na+-K+-2Cl− cotransporter NKCC1, the main chloride importer in mature neurons, can lead to depolarizing/excitatory responses mediated by GABA type A receptors (GABAARs) and, thus, to hyperactivity.

The NKCC1 ion transporter modulates microglial phenotype and inflammatory response to brain injury in a cell-autonomous manner.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2022
The NKCC1 ion transporter contributes to the pathophysiology of common neurological disorders, but its function in microglia, the main inflammatory cells of the brain, has remained unclear to date. Therefore, we generated a novel transgenic mouse line in

Structure and mechanism of the cation–chloride cotransporter NKCC1 [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2019
Cation-chloride cotransporters (CCCs) mediate the electroneutral transport of chloride, potassium and/or sodium across the membrane. They have critical roles in regulating cell volume, controlling ion absorption and secretion across epithelia, and maintaining intracellular chloride homeostasis.

NKCC1 and KCC2: Structural insights into phospho-regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Inhibitory neurotransmission plays a fundamental role in the central nervous system, with about 30–50% of synaptic connections being inhibitory. The action of both inhibitory neurotransmitter, gamma-aminobutyric-acid (GABA) and glycine, mainly relies on the intracellular Cl– concentration in neurons.

Role of SPAK–NKCC1 signaling cascade in the choroid plexus blood–CSF barrier damage after stroke

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background The mechanisms underlying dysfunction of choroid plexus (ChP) blood–cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier and lymphocyte invasion in neuroinflammatory responses to stroke are not well understood.

Inhibition of NKCC1 in spinal dorsal horn and dorsal root ganglion results in alleviation of neuropathic pain in rats with spinal cord contusion

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2023
Previous studies have confirmed the relationship between chloride homeostasis and pain. However, the role of sodium potassium chloride co-transporter isoform 1 (NKCC1) in dorsal horn and dorsal root ganglion neurons (DRGs) in spinal cord injury (SCI ...

NKCC1 Deficiency in Forming Hippocampal Circuits Triggers Neurodevelopmental Disorder: Role of BDNF-TrkB Signalling

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
The time-sensitive GABA shift from excitatory to inhibitory is critical in early neural circuits development and depends upon developmentally regulated expression of cation-chloride cotransporters NKCC1 and KCC2.
