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

Immunohistochemical detection of TMEM16A in human airways.
(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).

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]
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.

.: 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
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]
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
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 ...
