Abstract:

Large conductance, calcium- and voltage-activated potassium (BKCa) channels are important modulators of pulmonary vascular smooth muscle membrane potential, and phosphorylation of BKCa channels by protein kinases regulates pulmonary arterial smooth muscle function. However, little is known about the effect of phosphorylating specific channel subunits on BKCa channel activity. The present study was done to determine the effect of mutating protein kinase C (PKC) phosphorylation site serine 1076 (S1076) on transfected human BKCa channel α-subunits in human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells, a hete

Abstract:

Plasma membrane large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channels and sarcoplasmic reticulum inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptors (IP3Rs) are expressed in a wide variety of cell types, including arterial smooth muscle cells. Here, we studied BKCa channel regulation by IP3 and IP3Rs in rat and mouse cerebral artery smooth muscle cells. IP3 activated BKCa channels both in intact cells and in excised inside-out membrane patches. IP3 caused concentration-dependent BKCa channel activation with an apparent dissociation constant (Kd) of ∼4 µM at physiological voltage (−40 mV) and intracellu

Abstract:

Cerebral arterial remodeling is one of the critical factors in the occurrence of postspaceflight orthostatic intolerance. We hypothesize that large-conductance calcium-activated K+ (BKCa) channels in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) may play an important role in regulating cerebrovascular adaptation during microgravity exposure. The aim of this work was to investigate whether activation of BKCa channels is involved in regulation of apoptotic remodeling of cerebral arteries in simulated microgravity rats. In animal studies, Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to 1-wk hindlimb unweighting to

Abstract:

Recent results showing that large-conductance, calcium-activated K+ (BKCa) channels undergo direct tyrosine phosphorylation in the presence of c-Src tyrosine kinase have suggested the involvement of these channels in Src-mediated signaling pathways. Given the important role for c-Src in integrin-mediated signal transduction, we have examined the potential regulation of BKCa channels by proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2), a calcium-sensitive tyrosine kinase activated upon integrin stimulation.

Abstract:

Mechanosensitive large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels encoded by the Slo1 gene (BKCa channels) are expressed in podocytes. Here we show that BKCa channels reciprocally coimmunoprecipitate with synaptopodin (Synpo) in mouse glomeruli, in mouse podocytes, and in a heterologous expression system (HEK293T cells) in which these proteins are transiently expressed. Synpo and Slo1 colocalize along the surface of the glomerular basement membrane in mouse glomeruli. Synpo interacts with BKCa channels at COOH-terminal domains that overlap with an actin-binding domain on the channel molecule that

Abstract:

Erectile dysfunction (ED) can be elicited by a variety of pathogenic factors, particularly impaired formation of and responsiveness to nitric oxide (NO) and the downstream effectors soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) and cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (PKGI). One important target of PKGI in smooth muscle is the large-conductance, Ca2+-activated potassium (BKCa) channel. In our previous report ( 42 ), we demonstrated that deletion of the BKCa channel in mice induced force oscillations and led to reduced nerve-evoked relaxations and ED. In the current study, we used this ED model to explore the ro

Abstract:

The modulation of K+ channels plays a crucial role in cell migration and proliferation, but the effect of K+ channels on human cutaneous wound healing (CWH) remains underexplored. This study aimed to determine the necessity of modulating K+ channel activity and expression for human CWH. The use of 25 mM KCl as a K+ channel blocker markedly improved wound healing in vitro (in keratinocytes and fibroblasts) and in vivo (in rat and porcine models). K+ channel blockers, such as quinine and tetraethylammonium, aided in vitro wound healing, while Ba2+ was the exception and did not show similar effec

Signaling mechanisms that elevate cyclic AMP (cAMP) activate large-conductance, calcium- and voltage-activated potassium (BKCa) channels in pulmonary vascular smooth muscle and cause pulmonary vasodilatation. BKCa channel modulation is important in the regulation of pulmonary arterial pressure, and inhibition (closing) of the BKCa channel has been implicated in the development of pulmonary vasoconstriction. Protein kinase C (PKC) causes pulmonary vasoconstriction, but little is known about the effect of PKC on BKCa channel activity. Accordingly, studies were done to determine the effect of PKC

Abstract:

Large-conductance Ca2+- and voltage-activated K+ (BKCa, MaxiK, or Slo1) channels are expressed in almost every tissue in our body and participate in many critical functions such as neuronal excitability, vascular tone regulation, and neurotransmitter release. The functional versatility of BKCa channels owes in part to the availability of a spectacularly wide array of biological modulators of the channel function. In this review, we focus on modulation of BKCa channels by small endogenous molecules, emphasizing their molecular mechanisms. The mechanistic information available from studies on th

Mechanical injuries play an important role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis, especially in horses.

Hence, for this thesis, freshly isolated equine articular chondrocytes was used to investigate the influence of mechanical and/or osmotic loading. Immunohistochemistry revealed superficial localisa

The NO/cGMP/PKG signaling pathway targets are the mechanisms that regulate cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i) signaling and those implicated in the Ca2+-desensitization of the contractile apparatus.
