Amiloride-blockable acid-sensing ion channels are leading acid sensors expressed in human nociceptors.
Many painful inflammatory and ischemic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, cardiac ischemia, and exhausted skeletal muscles are accompanied by local tissue acidosis. In such acidotic states, extracellular protons provoke the pain by opening cation channels in nociceptors. It is generally believed that a vanilloid receptor subtype-1 (VR1) and an acid-sensing ion channel (ASIC) mediate the g...
متن کاملIon transport through biological channels
The transport of ions across single-molecule protein nanochannels is important both in the biological context and in proposed nanotechnological applications. Here we discuss these systems from the perspective of non-equilibrium physics, and in particular, whether the concepts underlying the physics of diffusive and electrokinetic transport can be employed to predict and understand these systems...
متن کاملModeling through self-assembly
In this paper we explore a new paradigm for modeling geometric structures through self-assembly. This approach is inspired by the new emerging field of nano-technologies. At the very small nano-scales the laws of physics are different from the ones at the scales we are used to in daily life. Gravity is negligible and Brownian motion induced by heat is a crucial factor. In fact the latter provid...
متن کاملAssembly and disassembly of a Zn10 high-nuclearity circular helicate.
A nano-scale decanuclear Zn(II) circular helicate is synthesized without the aid of counteranions during the assembly process, and can be totally disassembled into its reactants by specific anions.
متن کاملSelf-sorting chiral subcomponent rearrangement during crystallization.
The incorporation of enantiopure 1-amino-2,3-propanediol as a subcomponent into a dicopper double helicate resulted in perfect chiral induction of the helicate's twist. DFT calculations allowed the determination of the helicity of the complex in solution. The same helical induction, in which S amines induced a Lambda helical twist, was observed in the solid state by X-ray crystallography. Elect...
