Transcriptome and metabolome analysis of intersex gonads of redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus)

Frontiers in Marine Science
The redclaw crayfish is sexually dimorphic, with males preferring females in terms of growth rate and size. Currently, the molecular mechanism of sexual dimorphism is not well understood in crustaceans, and studies on the joint analysis of the gonadal ...

Acid-Sensitive Outwardly Rectifying Cl- Current in OV2944 Mouse Ovarian Cancer Cells

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry
Background/Aims: Extracellular acidic conditions impair cellular activities; however, some cancer cells drive cellular signaling to adapt to the acidic environment. It remains unclear how ovarian cancer cells sense changes in extracellular pH. This study

Slick potassium channels limit TRPM3-mediated activation of sensory neurons

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Heat sensation is mediated by specialized heat-sensitive neurons in the somatosensory system that innervates the skin. Previous studies revealed that noxious heat sensation is controlled by the sodium (Na+)-activated potassium (K+) channel Slick (Kcnt2),

Functional Analysis of TRPA1, TRPM3, and TRPV1 Channels in Human Dermal Arteries and Their Role in Vascular Modulation

Pharmaceuticals
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are pivotal in modulating vascular functions. In fact, topical application of cinnamaldehyde or capsaicin (TRPA1 and TRPV1 channel agonists, respectively) induces “local” changes in blood flow by releasing ...
