Cardiac Sodium Channel Nav1.5 Mechanosensitivity is Inhibited by Ranolazine

open access: yes, 2012
The cardiac action potential (AP) is initiated by the depolarizing inward sodium current (I(Na)). The pore-forming subunit of the cardiac sodium channel, Na(v)1.5, is the main ion channel that conducts I(Na) in cardiac cells.

A novel ion channel formed by interaction of TRPML3 with TRPV5. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
TRPML3 and TRPV5 are members of the mucolipin (TRPML) and TRPV subfamilies of transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channels. Based on sequence similarities of the pore forming regions and on structure-function evidence, we hypothesized that the pore

Nationwide Survey of Association Between Fever and Epileptic Seizure in CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder Revealed Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD) is a rare, severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. There is a pressing need to develop effective and sustainable therapeutic strategies. We aimed to investigate the causal association between febrile episodes and epileptic seizures for therapeutic implications in CDD patients.

Duplication of the sodium channel gene cluster on 2q24 in children with early onset epilepsy

open access: yes, 2012
Sodium channel gene aberrations are associated with a wide range of seizure disorders, particularly Dravet syndrome. They usually consist of missense or truncating gene mutations or deletions.

Knockdown of zebrafish Nav1.6 sodium channel impairs embryonic locomotor activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Although multiple subtypes of sodium channels are expressed in most neurons, the specific contributions of the individual sodium channels remain to be studied.

β‐Catenin/c‐Myc Axis Modulates Autophagy Response to Different Ammonia Concentrations

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2025.
Ammonia, detoxified by the liver into urea and glutamine, impacts autophagy differently at varying levels. Low ammonia activates autophagy via c‐Myc and β‐catenin, while high levels suppress it. Using Huh7 cells and Spf‐ash mice, c‐Myc's role in cytoprotective autophagy is revealed, offering insights into hyperammonemia and potential therapeutic ...

Na1.7 and Na1.8: Role in the pathophysiology of pain

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2019
Chronic pain is a significant unmet medical problem. Current research regarding sodium channel function in pathological pain is advancing with the hope that it will enable the development of isoform-specific sodium channel blockers, a promising treatment

Marine Toxins That Target Voltage-gated Sodium Channels

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2006
: Eukaryotic, voltage-gated sodium (NaV) channels are large membrane proteins which underlie generation and propagation of rapid electrical signals in nerve, muscle and heart. Nine different NaV receptor sites, for natural ligands and/or drugs, have been

Kinetic model based on molecular mechanism for action potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Hodgkin-Huxley model for action potentials has been widely used but was not built on a microscopic description of the neuronal membrane. Through molecular dynamics simulations, the molecular mechanism of the channel currents is becoming clear ...

Fabrication Routes for Ionic Conducting Fiber Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic conducting fiber strain sensors (ICFSs) offer compliant, textile‐integrable sensing. Thus far, the commercialization of ICFSs has been constrained by fiber fabrication routes. This review provides a fabrication‐centric analysis of ICFSs correlating processing strategies with material properties and scalability.
