Electrogenic transport and K(+) ion channel expression by the human endolymphatic sac epithelium. [PDF]
The endolymphatic sac (ES) is a cystic organ that is a part of the inner ear and is connected to the cochlea and vestibule. The ES is thought to be involved in inner ear ion homeostasis and fluid volume regulation for the maintenance of hearing and ...

Adynamia episodica hereditaria with myotonia: A non-inactivating sodium current and the effect of extracellular pH [PDF]
To study the mechanism of periodic paralysis, we investigated the properties of intact muscle fibers biopsied from a patient who had adynamia episodica hereditaria with electromyographic signs of myotonia.

Na+,K+-ATPase is the membrane receptor of hormone ouabain
At 10 nM, ouabain elicits changes in cell contacts, which are independent and usually in opposite direction to effects occurring at μM levels, suggesting that these depend on entirely different mechanisms.1 However, this does not discard the possibility ...

It is known that calix[4]arene with cipher C-99 selectively and with high affinity capable of inhibiting the Na+, K+-ATPase (compared with a known inhibitor of this enzyme – ouabain) of smooth muscle cells plasma membrane preparations.

Inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier protects from excitotoxic neuronal death. [PDF]
Glutamate is the dominant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but under conditions of metabolic stress it can accumulate to excitotoxic levels.

There is an intrinsic relationship between psychiatric disorders and neuroinflammation, including bipolar disorder. Ouabain, an inhibitor of Na+/K+-ATPase, has been implicated in the mouse model with manic-like behavior. However, the molecular mechanisms

Purpose: The relevance of retinal integrity and energy pathways to ocular growth and induction of refractive errors has seldom been investigated. Thus, we used ouabain to target the channels that are essential for the maintenance of membrane potentials ...

A ouabain‐sensitive membrane conductance [PDF]
1. Changes in membrane conductance and potential of sodium‐loaded frog muscle fibres were found when the external recovery solution was changed: from cold to warm, to warm plus ouabain, to cold plus ouabain. Comparisons of these measurements for different external solutions were made by leaving the electrodes implanted in the same fibre during all ...

Role of Ca2+-activated K+ channels and Na+-K+-ATPase in prostaglandin E1- and E2-induced inhibition of the adrenergic response in human vas deferens [PDF]
We studied the role of K+ channels and Na+,K+-ATPase in the presynaptic inhibitory effects of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) and PGE2 on the adrenergic responses of human vas deferens.
