Store Operated Calcium Entry in Cell Migration and Cancer Metastasis
Ca2+ signaling is ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells and modulates many cellular events including cell migration. Directional cell migration requires the polarization of both signaling and structural elements.

Multiple Effects of Echinochrome A on Selected Ion Channels Implicated in Skin Physiology
Echinochrome A (Ech A), a naphthoquinoid pigment from sea urchins, is known to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects that have been suggested to be mediated by antioxidant activity and intracellular signaling modulation.

Ang II Promotes Cardiac Autophagy and Hypertrophy via Orai1/STIM1
The pathophysiology of cardiac hypertrophy is complex and multifactorial. Both the store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) and excessive autophagy are the major causative factors for pathological cardiac hypertrophy.

Despite exhibiting cardiotoxicity, doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used for cancer treatments. Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) are important in the pathogenesis of heart failure. This necessitates the study of the effect of DOX on CFs.

Cholesterol Regulates Orai1 Function [PDF]
STIM1 and Orai proteins represent the essential molecular components of Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels. Following ER-store depletion, CRAC current activation occurs due to the physical interaction between the STIM1 C-terminus and Orai1 N- and C-termini.

CFTR Modulates Orai1 Dynamics [PDF]
Calcium signaling regulates many cellular processes and is upregulated in cystic fibrosis (CF) epithelial cells. Agonists stimulate Ca2+ release from ER stores and trigger the formation of a complex between the plasma membrane (PM) Ca2+ channel Orai1 and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), a primarily endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident protein ...

Regulation of neuropathic pain by microglial Orai1 channels
Microglia are important mediators of neuroinflammation, which underlies neuropathic pain. However, the molecular checkpoints controlling microglial reactivity are not well-understood. Here, we investigated the role of Orai1 channels for microglia-mediated neuroinflammation following nerve injury and find that deletion of Orai1 in ...
