Background TRPV4 channels are calcium-permeable cation that activated by several physicochemical stimuli. Accordingly, have been implicated in the regulation of osmosensing, mechanotransduction, thermosensation, and epithelial/endothelial barrier functions. Whether is also mechanistically melanoma cell proliferation not clear. Here, we hypothesized expressed human pharmacological activation interferes with proliferation. Methodology/Principal findings functions were studied lines (A375,...

The calcium/calmodulin-gated KCa3.1 channel regulates normal and abnormal mitogenesis by controlling K+-efflux, cell volume membrane hyperpolarization-driven calcium-entry. Recent studies suggest modulation of omega-3 fatty acids as negative modulators impaired functions in the inherited lysosomal storage disorder (LSD), Fabry disease (FD). In first part present study, we characterize murine human fibroblasts test impact on fibroblast proliferation. second, study whether is altered LSDs, FD...

Abstract: The epithelial intermediate-conductance calcium/calmodulin-regulated KCa3.1 channel is considered to be a regulator of intestine function by controlling chloride secretion and water/salt balance. Yet, little known about the functional importance in intestinal epithelium vivo. Our objective was determine impact epithelial-specific inducible overexpression transgene (KCa3.1+) suppression (KCa3.1-) on homeostasis mice. duodenal doxycycline (DOX)-treated KCa3.1+ mice 40-fold above...

Ion channels have recently attracted attention as potential mediators of skin disease. Here, we explored the consequences genetically encoded induction cell volume-regulating Ca2+-activated KCa3.1 channel (Kcnn4) for murine epidermal homeostasis. Doxycycline-treated mice harboring KCa3.1+-transgene under control reverse tetracycline-sensitive transactivator (rtTA) showed 800-fold overexpression above basal levels in and solid KCa3.1-currents keratinocytes. This resulted spongiosis,...

Abstract Increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases is common in HIV+ adults on stable antiretroviral treatment (ART). A key step the development plaque transmigration monocytes to area and their differentiation into macrophages eventually foam cells. The objective this study was determine if propensity transmigrate as well ability take up efflux cholesterol affected by HIV infection. Monocytes (transmigration) differentiated (lipid metabolism) from ART treated patients were...
