Voltage-Dependent Ion Channels in Vascular Endothelial Cells: An Unexpected Signaling Pathway in Non-Excitable Cells

Biomedicines
Voltage-gated ion channels (VGICs) are traditionally associated with electrically excitable cells; however, increasing evidence indicates that they are also expressed in non-excitable cells, including vascular endothelial cells.

Structure and function of voltage‐gated sodium channels

The Journal of Physiology, 1998
Sodium channels mediate fast depolarization and conduct electrical impulses throughout nerve, muscle and heart. This paper reviews the links between sodium channel structure and function. Sodium channels have a modular architecture, with distinct regions for the pore and the gates.

Pumilio binds para mRNA and requires nanos and brat to regulate sodium current in drosophila motoneurons [PDF]

, 2008
Homeostatic regulation of ionic currents is of paramount importance during periods of synaptic growth or remodeling. Our previous work has identified the translational repressor Pumilio (Pum) as a regulator of sodium current (INa) and excitability in ...

Sodium channel inactivation kinetics of rat sensory and motor nerve fibres and their modulation by glutathione [PDF]

, 1993
Na+ channel currents of rat motor and sensory nerve fibres were studied with the patch-clamp technique on enzymatically demyelinated axons. Differences between motor and sensory fibres in multi-channel inactivation kinetics and the gating of late single ...

Ciguatoxins: Cyclic Polyether Modulators of Voltage-gated Iion Channel Function

Marine Drugs, 2006
Ciguatoxins are cyclic polyether toxins, derived from marine dinoflagellates, which are responsible for the symptoms of ciguatera poisoning. Ingestion of tropical and subtropical fin fish contaminated by ciguatoxins results in an illness characterised by

CD9+ B Cells Induce T Follicular Helper Cell Apoptosis to Regulate Germinal Center Regression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A unique subset of CD9+ B cells regulates germinal center B (GC‐B) cell regression by inducing T follicular helper (Tfh) cell apoptosis through multiple signaling pathways, such as ALCAM‐CD6. FOXP1 plays a key role in GC‐B cell differentiation. These findings clarify mechanisms of GC degeneration and termination and offer potential targets for adenoid ...

The Segregated Expression of Voltage-Gated Potassium and Sodium Channels in Neuronal Membranes: Functional Implications and Regulatory Mechanisms

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Neurons are highly polarized cells with apparent functional and morphological differences between dendrites and axon. A critical determinant for the molecular and functional identity of axonal and dendritic segments is the restricted expression of ...
