The Ion Transporter NKCC1 Links Cell Volume to Cell Mass Regulation by Suppressing mTORC1

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: mTORC1 regulates cellular growth and is activated by growth factors and by essential amino acids such as Leu. Leu enters cells via the Leu transporter LAT1-4F2hc (LAT1).

Calcium‐activated chloride channels in pericytes and their role in regulating organ blood flow

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pericytes are microvascular mural cells with diverse roles. Contractile pericytes directly regulate local perfusion, while non‐contractile pericytes coordinate upstream vascular contractility via propagating electrical signals.

Vasopressin and hyperosmolality regulate NKCC1 expression in rat OMCD [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension Research, 2009
Secretory-type Na-K-2Cl cotransporter (NKCC1) is known to play roles in both acid and sodium excretion, and is more abundant in dehydration. To determine the mechanisms by which dehydration stimulates NKCC1 expression, the effects of vasopressin, oxytocin and hyperosmolality on NKCC1 mRNA and protein expressions in the outer medullary collecting duct ...

Restoring neuronal chloride homeostasis with anti-NKCC1 gene therapy rescues cognitive deficits in a mouse model of Down syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Therapy, 2021
A common feature of diverse brain disorders is the alteration of GABA-mediated inhibition because of aberrant, intracellular chloride homeostasis induced by changes in the expression and/or function of chloride transporters.

Novel volume‐electron microscopic ultrastructural analysis of gastrointestinal excitability associated with calcium–activated chloride channels

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Immunohistochemistry, electrophysiology and pharmacology are useful tools for understanding protein and channel expression and physiological reactions of calcium‐activated chloride channels (CaCCs). Conventional transmission electron microscopy has provided useful 2‐D information on organelle arrangement, localization and ...

The Role of Na:K:2Cl Cotransporter 1 (NKCC1/SLC12A2) in Dental Epithelium during Enamel Formation in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Na+:K+:2Cl− cotransporters (NKCCs) belong to the SLC12A family of cation-coupled Cl− transporters. We investigated whether enamel-producing mouse ameloblasts express NKCCs.

Update on cellular expression and function of ANO1 channels in urethral smooth muscle

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Activation of ANO1 channels and resulting Cl− efflux are suggested to modulate urethral smooth muscle contractility by enhancing Ca2+ influx via voltage‐dependent Ca2+ entry and resulting contraction in urethral smooth muscle cells.

A Drosophila screen identifies NKCC1 as a modifier of NGLY1 deficiency

open access: yeseLife, 2020
N-Glycanase 1 (NGLY1) is a cytoplasmic deglycosylating enzyme. Loss-of-function mutations in the NGLY1 gene cause NGLY1 deficiency, which is characterized by developmental delay, seizures, and a lack of sweat and tears. To model the phenotypic variability observed among patients, we crossed a

Loss of NKCC1 function increases epithelial tight junction permeability by upregulating claudin-2 expression.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 2022
Conditions that cause the loss of epithelial barrier integrity are often accompanied by dysregulation of tight junction protein expression and/or localization.
