TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains in the regulation of vascular function
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains. Calcium influx or calcium release from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) activates TMEM16A channels through interactions with regulatory proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells or endothelial cells. TMEM16A channel activation drives chloride efflux,

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Inhibitory effect of fucoidan on the activities of crotaline snake venom myotoxic phospholipases A2
, 2003 Myotoxic phospholipases A2 account for most of the muscle necrosis that results from envenenomation by crotaline snakes. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of fucoidan, a natural sulfated polysaccharide obtained from the brown seaweed ...

Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...
