Absence of association between host genetic mutations in the ORAI1 gene and COVID-19 fatality.
The calcium ion channel ORAI1 has emerged as a promising therapeutic target for the Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID-19)-associated pneumonia, and a pharmacological inhibitor of ORAI1 has now reached clinical trials for severe COVID-19 pneumonia.

The effect of lentinan on the gene expression of major ion channels in T lymphocytes isolated from mice exposed to chronic radiation [PDF]
It is known that Kv1.3, KCa3.1, CRAC, TRPM7, and Clswell are five important ion channels in T lymphocytes. To investigate the mechanism underlying the protective effects of lentinan against T lymphocytes injury induced by chronic radiation in mice, we

Methods to Quantify the Dynamic Recycling of Plasma Membrane Channels
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a ubiquitous Ca2+ signaling modality mediated by Orai Ca2+ channels at the plasma membrane (PM) and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ sensors STIM1/2.

Similarities and Differences between the Orai1 Variants: Orai1α and Orai1β
Orai1, the first identified member of the Orai protein family, is ubiquitously expressed in the animal kingdom. Orai1 was initially characterized as the channel responsible for the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), a major mechanism that allows ...

Calcium signalling in platelets through store operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) or receptor-operated Ca2+ entry (ROCE) mechanisms is crucial for platelet activation and function. Orai1 proteins have been implicated in platelet’s SOCE. In this study we evaluated

The sun, cholesterol and Orai1 conspire in melanoma
How does skin cancer become metastatic? A recent study by Gross et al (2022) reports a novel pathway by which UV radiation acts on cholesterol biosynthesis to control Ca2+ influx by Orai1, causing protein O-GlcNAcylation that promotes transformation to invasive melanoma.
