BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The sodium-calcium exchanger NCX1 represents a key mediator for maintaining [Na(+)](i) and [Ca(2+)](i) in anoxic conditions. To date, no information is available on NCX1 protein expression and activity in microglial cells under ischemic conditions. METHODS By means of Western blotting, patch-clamp electrophysiology, single-cell Fura-2 acetoxymethyl-ester microfluorometr...
Endothelin ET(A) receptor couples to Gq/11 protein that transduces a variety of receptor signals to modulate diverse cellular responses including Ca2+ mobilization. Stimulation of endothelin ETA receptor with endothelin-1 is generally believed to induce an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) via Gq/11 protein. Here we provide the first convincing evidence that endothelin-1 el...
Endothelin ETA receptor couples to Gq/11 protein that transduces a variety of receptor signals to modulate diverse cellular responses including Ca mobilization. Stimulation of endothelin ETA receptor with endothelin-1 is generally believed to induce an increase in intracellular Ca concentration ([Ca]i) via Gq/11 protein. Here we provide the first convincing evidence that endothelin-1 elicited G...
Enhanced airway contractility following inflammation by cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) or interleukin-13 (IL-13) involves increased intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) levels in airway smooth muscle (ASM). In ASM, plasma membrane Ca(2+) fluxes form a key component of [Ca(2+)](i) regulation. There is now growing evidence that the bidirectional plasma membrane Na(+)/Ca(2+) ex...
PURPOSE The plasma membrane Ca2+ -adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) (PMCA) and (potassium-dependent) sodium-calcium exchange [NC(K)X] represent two main calcium-extrusion mechanisms that are important for the restoration of [Ca2+]i levels after electrical activity. We investigated whether the expression of these calcium-extrusion proteins is altered in the course of epileptogenesis. METHODS H...
Ischemic preconditioning represents an important adaptation mechanism of CNS, which results in its increased tolerance to the lethal cerebral ischemia. The molecular mechanisms responsible for the induction and maintenance of ischemic tolerance in the brain are complex and not yet completely clarified. In the last 10 years, great attention has been devoted to unravel the intracellular pathways ...
In the last two decades, there has been a growing interest in unraveling the role that the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) plays in the function and regulation of several cellular activities. Molecular biology, electrophysiology, genetically modified mice, and molecular pharmacology have helped to delve deeper and more successfully into the physiological and pathophysiological role of this exchanger. ...
Mammalian Na+/Ca2+ exchangers are members of three branches of a much larger family of transport proteins [the CaCA (Ca2+/cation antiporter) superfamily] whose main role is to provide control of Ca2+ flux across the plasma membranes or intracellular compartments. Since cytosolic levels of Ca2+ are much lower than those found extracellularly or in sequestered stores, the major function of Na+/Ca...
in the mammalian, there are three ncx genes (ncx1, ncx2, ncx3), which their three proteins are differentially expressed in distinct regions of the central nervous system, where they might underlie different physiological and pathophysiological functions. ncx is a nine-transmembrane protein which is distributed in the brain widely. ncx operates in a bidirectional way, and exchanges ca2+ and na+ ...
NA /CA2 EXCHANGER (NCX) proteins constitute a family of solute carriers that provide the major pathway for removal of calcium from the cytosol in exchange for three times as many sodium ions. The vertebrate NCX proteins are expressed as tissue-specific subtypes coded by multiple genes (NCX1, NCX2, and NCX3 in mammals) and further diversified by variable splicing (e.g., NCX1.1, NCX1.2, and NCX1....
