Pendrin gene ablation enhances vascular contractility
Pendrin, encoded by Slc26a4, is expressed in the apical regions of a subset of renal intercalated cells, where it mediates Cl − absorption and HCO 3 − secretion through apical Cl

Background: The utility of urinary extracellular vesicles (uEVs) to faithfully represent the changes of renal tubular protein expression remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate renal tubular sodium (Na+) or potassium (K+) associated transporters expression

Two novel SLC26A4 mutations in Iranian families with autosomal recessive hearing loss [PDF]
Objective: Due to the fact that SLC26A4 has been suggested as the second cause of hearing loss (HL) in Iran as well as many other countries, obtaining more comprehensive information about SLC26A4 mutations can facilitate more efficient genetic services ...

Pendred's syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by sensorineural deafness, goiter, and impaired iodide organification. It is caused by mutations in the PDS/SLC26A4 gene that encodes pendrin. Functionally, pendrin is a transporter of chloride and iodide in Xenopus oocytes and heterologous mammalian cells and a chloride/base exchanger

Abstract Background Freshwater salinization is an emerging stressor in amphibian populations, and embryonic stages are most vulnerable. To better understand the variation in embryonic osmoregulation, we challenged embryos of two phylogenetically diverse anuran species, Xenopus laevis and Lithobates (Rana) sylvaticus, along a gradient of non‐lethal ...

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: Transporters
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,

The HSP70 co-chaperone DNAJC14 targets misfolded pendrin for unconventional protein secretion
Mutations in pendrin, a plasma membrane transporter, lead to Pendred syndrome, which is associated with hearing loss. Here, Jung et al. show that cell-surface expression of a mutated form of pendrin can be restored by blocking ER-to-Golgi traffic and ...

Postnatal expression of transport proteins involved in acid-base transport in mouse kidney [PDF]
The kidney plays a major role in maintaining and controlling systemic acid-base homeostasis by reabsorbing bicarbonate and secreting protons and acid-equivalents, respectively.
