Control of Ion Transport by Tmem16a Expressed in Murine Intestine

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Cl– secretion by the human and murine intestinal epithelium occurs through the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (cftr). However, the Ca2+ activated Cl– channel Tmem16a was shown to contribute to Cl– secretion, mainly, but not ...

Regulation of TMEM16A by CK2 and Its Role in Cellular Proliferation

open access: yesCells, 2020
Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is a highly ubiquitous and conserved serine/threonine kinase that forms a tetramer consisting of a catalytic subunit (CK2α) and a regulatory subunit (CK2β). Despite being ubiquitous, CK2 is commonly found at higher expression levels

TMEM16A/F support exocytosis but do not inhibit Notch-mediated goblet cell metaplasia of BCi-NS1.1 human airway epithelium

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Cl− channels such as the Ca2+ activated Cl− channel TMEM16A and the Cl− permeable phospholipid scramblase TMEM16F may affect the intracellular Cl− concentration ([Cl−]i), which could act as an intracellular signal.

Gating the pore of the calcium-activated chloride channel TMEM16A [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
AbstractThe binding of cytoplasmic Ca2+ to the anion-selective channel TMEM16A triggers a conformational change around its binding site that is coupled to the release of a gate at the constricted neck of an hourglass-shaped pore. By combining mutagenesis, electrophysiology, and cryo-electron microscopy, we identified three hydrophobic residues at the ...

TMEM16A Inhibition Preserves Blood–Brain Barrier Integrity After Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
The inflammatory response plays a pivotal role in Blood–Brain Barrier (BBB) destruction following ischemic brain injury. Enhanced leukocyte adhesion to vascular endothelial cells is an essential event in the inflammatory process.

Hepatocyte TMEM16A Deletion Retards NAFLD Progression by Ameliorating Hepatic Glucose Metabolic Disorder

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2020
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent form of chronic liver disease, and the mechanisms underpinning its pathogenesis have not been completely established.

TMEM16A alternative splicing coordination in breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2013
Abstract Background TMEM16A, also known as Anoctamin-1, is a calcium-activated chloride channel gene overexpressed in many tumors. The role of TMEM16A in cancer is not completely understood and no data are available regarding the potential tumorigenic properties of the multiple isoforms generated by ...

Intestinal TMEM16A control luminal chloride secretion in a NHERF1 dependent manner

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021
TMEM16A (Transmembrane protein 16A or Anoctamin1) is a calcium-activated chloride channel.(CaCC),that exerts critical roles in epithelial secretion. However, its localization, function, and regulation in intestinal chloride (Cl−) secretion remain obscure.

Calcium- and Voltage-Dependent Dual Gating ANO1 is an Intrinsic Determinant of Repolarization in Rod Bipolar Cells of the Mouse Retina

open access: yesCells, 2020
TMEM16A/anoctamin1 (ANO1), a calcium (Ca2+)-activated chloride (Cl−) channel, has many functions in various excitable cells and modulates excitability in both Ca2+- and voltage-gating modes.

Hypoxia increases the proliferation of brain capillary endothelial cells via upregulation of TMEM16A Ca2+-activated Cl− channels

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2021
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is mainly formed by brain capillary endothelial cells (BCECs) and is exposed to hypoxic environments under pathological conditions. The effects of hypoxia on the expression and activity of Ca2+-activated Cl− (ClCa) channels,
