Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are voltage-independent, proton-activated receptors that
belong to the epithelial sodium channel/degenerin family of ion channels and are …

Acid-sensing ion channels are proton-activated, sodium-selective channels composed of
three subunits, and are members of the superfamily of epithelial sodium channels, …

With an ever aging population, identifying interventions that can alleviate age-related
functional declines has become increasingly important. Dietary supplements have taken center …

Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are a family of ion channels, consisting of four members;
ASIC1 to 4. These channels are sensitive to changes in pH and are expressed throughout …

Alzheimer’s disease prevalence has reached epidemic proportion with very few treatment
options, which are associated with a multitude of side effects. A potential avenue of research …

Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) evolved to sense changes in extracellular acidity with
the divalent cation calcium (Ca 2+ ) as an allosteric modulator and channel blocker. The …

Modulation of type A GABA receptors (GABA A ) by L-type Ca ++ channel blockers was
investigated. The dihydropyridines nifedipine and nitrendipine, and the phenylalkylamine …

The central nervous system convulsant picrotoxin (PTX) inhibits GABA A and glutamate-gated
Cl − channels in a use-facilitated fashion, whereas PTX inhibition of glycine and GABA C …

Aluminum reacts with 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulphonic acids (HQS) in cationic micelles of
cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to form a strongly fluorescent compound. In the …
