Mechanism of persistent hyperalgesia in neuropathic pain caused by chronic constriction injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2019
Transmembrane member 16A (TMEM16A) is involved in many physiological functions, such as epithelial secretion, sensory conduction, nociception, control of neuronal excitability, and regulation of smooth muscle contraction, and may be important in ...

Tamsulosin ameliorates bone loss by inhibiting the release of Cl− through wedging into an allosteric site of TMEM16A

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Significance With the global population aging at an increasing rate, osteoporosis is emerging as a progressively significant public health concern. TMEM16A is an important target for osteoporosis, however, the development of potent inhibitors remains ...

Immunohistochemical detection of TMEM16A in human airways.

open access: yes, 2015
(A) Expression of TMEM16A in the surface epithelium. TMEM16A staining was mostly absent (b), and sometimes scanty (c) in the respiratory epithelium lining bronchi or bronchioles from CF patients (c, arrows).

TMEM16A is associated with Voltage-gated Calcium Channels in mouse retina and its function is disrupted upon mutation of the auxiliary α2δ4 subunit.

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Photoreceptors rely upon highly specialized synapses to efficiently transmit signals to multiple postsynaptic targets. Calcium influx in the presynaptic terminal is mediated by voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCC).

Die Bedeutung des calciumaktivierten Chloridkanals TMEM16A in vaskulären glatten Muskelzellen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Der arterielle Blutdruck wird durch das Herzzeitvolumen und den peripheren Widerstand des Gefäßsystems bestimmt. Dieser hängt wesentlich vom Tonus kleiner Arteriolen ab, die ihren Durchmesser durch Kontraktion ihrer glatten Muskelzellen verändern können.

Modulation of TMEM16A-Channel Activity as Ca2+ Activated Cl− Conductance via the Interaction With Actin Cytoskeleton in Murine Portal Vein

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2014
.: TMEM16A is a major component of Ca2+-activated Cl− channel (CaCC) conductance in murine portal vein smooth muscle cells (mPVSMCs). Here, the regulation of CaCC activity by the actin cytoskeleton was examined in mPVSMCs.

TMEM16A in smooth muscle cells acts as a pacemaker channel in the internal anal sphincter

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Maintenance of fecal continence requires a continuous or basal tone of the internal anal sphincter (IAS). Paradoxically, the basal tone results largely from high-frequency rhythmic contractions of the IAS smooth muscle.

TMEM16A controls EGF-induced calcium signaling implicated in pancreatic cancer prognosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pancreatic cancer typically spreads rapidly and has poor survival rates. Here, we report that the calcium-activated chloride channel TMEM16A is a biomarker for pancreatic cancer with a poor prognosis. TMEM16A is up-regulated in 75% of cases of pancreatic

TMEM16A blocker as vasorelaxant

open access: yes, 2013
Background and purposeT16A(inh) -A01 is a recently identified inhibitor of the calcium-activated chloride channel TMEM16A. The aim of this study was to test the efficacy of T16A(inh) -A01 for inhibition of calcium-activated chloride channels in vascular smooth muscle and consequent effects on vascular tone.Experimental approachSingle channel and whole ...
