Pendrin as a Novel Target for Diuretic Therapy [PDF]

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2011
The Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger pendrin (SLC26A4, PDS) and the thiazide-sensitive NaCl cotransporter NCC (SLC12A3) are expressed on the apical membranes of distal nephron segments and mediate salt absorption, with pendrin working in tandem with the epithelial Na channel (ENaC) and NCC working by itself.

Epithelial cell stretching and luminal acidification lead to a retarded development of stria vascularis and deafness in mice lacking pendrin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Loss-of-function mutations of SLC26A4/pendrin are among the most prevalent causes of deafness. Deafness and vestibular dysfunction in the corresponding mouse model, Slc26a4(-/-), are associated with an enlargement and acidification of the membranous ...

Effects of cAMP and CFTR modulation on apical fluid pH in human airway Calu‐3 cells

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, February 2026.
Abstract The airway epithelium serves as the first line of defense against inhaled insults present in the external environment by acting as a physical barrier and through host defense mechanisms. Proper maintenance of these host defense mechanisms relies on the regulation of airway surface liquid (ASL) composition and properties, a process that is ...

KCC3a, a Strong Candidate Pathway for K+ Loss in Alkalemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Loss-of-function mutations in the human potassium chloride cotransporter-3 (KCC3) cause a hereditary motor sensory neuropathy associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum. While recapitulating the neuropathy, KCC3-knockout mice also exhibit high blood

Pendrin Modulates ENaC Function by Changing Luminal HCO3 − [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2010
The epithelial Na(+) channel, ENaC, and the Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger, pendrin, mediate NaCl absorption within the cortical collecting duct and the connecting tubule. Although pendrin and ENaC localize to different cell types, ENaC subunit abundance and activity are lower in aldosterone-treated pendrin-null mice relative to wild-type mice.

Targeting EZH2 reverses thyroid cell dedifferentiation and enhances iodide uptake in anaplastic thyroid cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 2, Page 215-225, January 2026.
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) lacks iodide uptake ability due to MAPK activation increasing the expression of the histone methyltransferase EZH2, which represses thyroid differentiation genes (TDGs) such as the sodium iodide symporter (NIS). Dual inhibition of MAPK (U0126) and EZH2 (EPZ6438/Tazemetostat) reverses this mechanism, thus restoring TDG ...

SLC26A4 targeted to the endolymphatic sac rescues hearing and balance in Slc26a4 mutant mice.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
Mutations of SLC26A4 are a common cause of human hearing loss associated with enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct. SLC26A4 encodes pendrin, an anion exchanger expressed in a variety of epithelial cells in the cochlea, the vestibular labyrinth and the ...

Genomic analysis of a heterogeneous Mendelian phenotype: multiple novel alleles for inherited hearing loss in the Palestinian population

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2006
Recessively inherited phenotypes are frequent in the Palestinian population, as the result of a historical tradition of marriages within extended kindreds, particularly in isolated villages. In order to characterise the genetics of inherited hearing loss

Development of the stria vascularis and potassium regulation in the human fetal cochlea : insights into hereditary sensorineural hearing loss [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is one of the most common congenital disorders in humans, afflicting one in every thousand newborns. The majority is of heritable origin and can be divided in syndromic and nonsyndromic forms. Knowledge of the expression
