Targeting proteins to a specific membrane is crucial for proper epithelial cell function. KCa3.1, a calcium-activated, intermediate-conductance potassium channel, is targeted to the basolateral membrane (BLM) in epithelial cells. Surprisingly, the me

Abstract Background Calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II-delta (CaMKIIδ) activity is enhanced during hyperglycemia and has been shown to alter intracellular calcium handling in cardiomyocytes, ultimately leading to reduced cardiac performance. How

The epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) provides for Na+ absorption in various types of epithelia including the kidney, lung, and colon where ENaC is localized to the apical membrane to enable Na+ entry into the cell. The degree of Na+ entry via ENaC large

The COMMD proteins are a conserved family of proteins with central roles in intracellular membrane trafficking and transcription. They form oligomeric complexes with each other and act as components of a larger assembly called the CCC complex, which

Optimal function of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in the distal nephron is key to the kidney’s long-term control of salt homeostasis and blood pressure. Multiple pathways alter ENaC cell surface populations, including correct processing and

Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women worldwide with half a million associated deaths annually. Despite a huge global effort, the pathways of breast cancer progression are not fully elucidated. Ion channels have recently emerged as

Vascular epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) made up of canonical α, β, and γ subunits have attracted more attention recently owing to their physiological role in vascular health and disease. A fourth subunit, δ-ENaC, is expressed in various mamma

Background: Elevated expression and increased activity of vascular epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) can result in vascular dysfunction in small animal models. However, there is limited or no knowledge on expression and function of ENaC channels in hu

The epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) located at the apical membrane in many epithelia is the rate-limiting step for Na+ reabsorption. Tight regulation of the plasma membrane population of ENaC is required, as hypertension or hypotension may result if to

Renal Na+reabsorption, facilitated by the epithelial Na+channel (ENaC), is subject to multiple forms of control to ensure optimal body blood volume and pressure through altering both the ENaC population and activity at the cell surface. Here, the foc
