A numerical approach to ion channel modelling using whole-cell voltage-clamp recordings and a genetic algorithm.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2007
The activity of trans-membrane proteins such as ion channels is the essence of neuronal transmission. The currently most accurate method for determining ion channel kinetic mechanisms is single-channel recording and analysis.

Isocyanate‐Modified Melatplatin(IV) Enhances Antitumor Efficacy via TCF4/COL6A3‐Mediated Extracellular Matrix Remodeling and cGAS‐STING Pathway Activation in Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A series of melatonin‐conjugated platinum(IV) prodrugs was functionalized with isocyanate chains (compounds 5‒12). MP‐12C (compound 11) was identified as the lead candidate, with optimal potency and safety. MP‐12C exhibited greater efficacy than cisplatin by increasing intracellular uptake, reshaping the extracellular matrix, activating the cGAS‐STING ...

Astrocytes Coordinate Neurovascular Coupling During Prolonged Sensory Demand via AQP4/TRPA1/BEST1/D‐Serine Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuronal activation leads to astrocytic transient volume changes, activating transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channels, leading to Ca2+ influx. Activation of TRPA1 causes the release of D‐serine through BEST1. Finally, the augmented extracellular levels of D‐serine boost neuronal activity by binding GluN1‐containing NMDARs, leading to CBV

Glutaminolysis Blockade‐Empowered Bimodal Nanodepot for Spatially Complementary Sono‐Thermal Ablation via PANoptosis and STING Activation Against Large Tumors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An injectable bimodal TCPD nanodepot disrupts glutaminolysis and TCA metabolism, sensitizing large tumors to spatially complementary sono‐thermal ablation for complete treatment coverage. This intervention induces mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum dysfunction, genotoxicity, and NAD+ depletion, converging to trigger PANoptosome assembly and ...

Signaling complexes of voltage-gated calcium channels

, 2011
Voltage gated calcium channels are key mediators of depolarization induced calcium entry into electrically excitable cells. There is increasing evidence that voltage gated calcium channels, like many other types of ionic channels, do not operate in ...

Neonatal Sevoflurane Exposure Induces Long‐Term Cognitive Impairment via Epigenetically Mediated MMP9 Activation and Perineuronal Net Disruption in the Hippocampal CA2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hippocampal CA2 perineuronal nets ensheathing excitatory pyramidal neurons are selectively vulnerable to repeated neonatal sevoflurane exposure. Epigenetic upregulation of MMP9 via reduced H3K27me3 disrupts PNN integrity, impairs BDNF–TrkB signaling, and causes synaptic protein loss and dendritic spine deficits, leading to persistent social and spatial

Drug Repurposing for Treating NCOR‐Related Intellectual Disability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An autism‐associated NCOR1 heterozygous mutation upregulates NRGs and activates NRG backward signaling in hypothalamic GABAergic neurons in mouse models, leading to Gabra2 downregulation and cognitive deficits, which can be therapeutically targeted by repurposing FDA‐approved drugs.

Hydrogel Phase Transition‐Driven Soft Gating Circumvents Debye Screening for Advanced Biosensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A 3D soft gate utilizes a macroscopic hydrogel phase transition to effectively circumvent Debye screening in high‐salt environments. The intact matrix maximizes transmembrane ion flux via volumetric Donnan enrichment and superhydrophilicity. Target‐triggered network disassembly abolishes these effects, introducing a synergistic physical barrier.

Microbial Voltage-gated Ion Channels

, 2021
Voltage-gated ion channels (VIC) form a superfamily that is well known for transporting potassium, sodium and calcium ions in excitable tissues. Ancestral members of this superfamily were thought to transport only potassium ions, unlike modern homologs ...
