Development of the Olfactory Epithelium and Nasal Glands in TMEM16A-/- and TMEM16A+/+ Mice. [PDF]
TMEM16A/ANO1 is a calcium-activated chloride channel expressed in several types of epithelia and involved in various physiological processes, including proliferation and development.

TMEM16A in Cystic Fibrosis: Activating or Inhibiting? [PDF]
The inflammatory airway disease cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by airway obstruction due to mucus hypersecretion, airway plugging, and bronchoconstriction.

Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced liver injury with severe cell death is a major complication of liver transplantation. Transmembrane member 16A (TMEM16A), a component of hepatocyte Ca2+-activated chloride channel, has been implicated in a variety of ...

Calmodulin-Dependent Regulation of Overexpressed but Not Endogenous TMEM16A Expressed in Airway Epithelial Cells [PDF]
Regulation of the Ca2+-activated Cl− channel TMEM16A by Ca2+/calmodulin (CAM) is discussed controversially. In the present study, we compared regulation of TMEM16A by Ca2+/calmodulin (holo-CAM), CAM-dependent kinase (CAMKII), and CAM-dependent ...

Epithelial chloride transport by CFTR requires TMEM16A [PDF]
Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) is the secretory chloride/bicarbonate channel in airways and intestine that is activated through ATP binding and phosphorylation by protein kinase A, but fails to operate in cystic fibrosis (CF).

Control of Ion Transport by Tmem16a Expressed in Murine Intestine [PDF]
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 ...

Intracellular TMEM16A is necessary for myogenesis of skeletal muscle
Summary: Transmembrane protein 16A (TMEM16A) localizes at plasma membrane and controls chloride influx in various type of cells. We here showed an intracellular localization pattern of TMEM16A molecules.

Functional expression of TMEM16A in taste bud cells [PDF]
Key points: Taste transduction occurs in taste buds in the tongue epithelium. The Ca2+-activated Cl– channels TMEM16A and TMEM16B play relevant physiological roles in several sensory systems. Here, we report that TMEM16A, but not TMEM16B, is expressed in

Cell-specific mechanisms of TMEM16A Ca2+-activated chloride channel in cancer
TMEM16A (known as anoctamin 1) Ca2+-activated chloride channel is overexpressed in many tumors. TMEM16A overexpression can be caused by gene amplification in many tumors harboring 11q13 amplification.

The Prognostic Value and Mechanisms of TMEM16A in Human Cancer [PDF]
As a calcium ion-dependent chloride channel transmembrane protein 16A (TMEM16A) locates on the cell membrane. Numerous research results have shown that TMEM16A is abnormally expressed in many cancers.
