The Use of LeuT as a Receptor Model for Antidepressant Development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) have been considered to be promising drugs in psychiatric practice because of their selectivity to serotonin re-uptake transporter (SERT).

DNA topoisomerases participate in fragility of the oncogene RET [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Fragile site breakage was previously shown to result in rearrangement of the RET oncogene, resembling the rearrangements found in thyroid cancer. Common fragile sites are specific regions of the genome with a high susceptibility to DNA breakage under ...

Substrate for Thyroid Hormone Synthesis: Biochemistry, Evolution, and Physiology

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.
Two proposed sequence of events for thyroxine formation in patients expressing mutant thyroglobulin. (A) (1) TSH stimulation drives expression of misfolded TG. (2) Unremitting ER stress. (3) Stress‐induced cell death. (4) Dead thyrocytes release their contents. (5) The contents become iodinated. (6) Forming thyroxine.

The cytotoxicity of 3-bromopyruvate in breast cancer cells depends on extracellular pH [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Although the anti-cancer properties of 3BP have been described previously, its selectivity for cancer cells still needs to be explained. In the work reported here we characterized the kinetic parameters of radiolabelled [14C]-3BP uptake in three breast ...

A Semi‐Quantitative Yeast Complementation Platform for Characterizing Urea and Ammonia Transport by Membrane Channels

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Yeast complementation assays provide a robust in vivo platform for characterizing the permeability and pH gating of transmembrane channels. This article details a liquid culture approach to quantify urea and ammonia transport using Saccharomyces cerevisiae deletion strains.

Genomic and non-genomic effects of a new sodium-sensing network in renal and lung epithelia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sodium and water homeostasis is crucial for cell function, survival and health of the individual. The kidney is responsible for sodium regulation in the body, balancing sodium secretion and reabsorption, and thereby also regulating the blood pressure,

Functional characterization of NRT1/PTR FAMILY transporters: looking for a needle in a haystack

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1124-1144, February 2026.
Summary NRT1/PTR FAMILY (NPF) transporters play crucial roles in plant physiology and development due to their involvement in nitrogen nutrition and their ability to transport multiple signaling molecules and metabolites. Whereas most eukaryotic and prokaryotic NPF orthologs are peptide transporters, most flowering plant NPF transport other substrates ...

The function and regulation of acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) and the epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC): IUPHAR Review 19. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) and the epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC) are both members of the ENaC/degenerin family of amiloride-sensitive Na(+) channels.

Astatine‐211—Towards In Vivo Stable Astatine‐211 Labeled Radiopharmaceuticals and Their (Pre)Clinical Applications

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 203-237, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Targeted radioligand therapy has emerged as a promising treatment option for eradicating advanced cancer forms. α‐Emitters are considered particularly promising as they can obliterate (micro)‐metastases. The α‐emitter astatine‐211 (211At) has experienced increased interest due to its favorable decay properties.
