Na + /H + exchangers are membrane transporters conserved in all living systems and therefore are assumed to be amongst the most ancestral molecular devices that equipped the first protocells. Following the cloning and sequencing of its gene, the mammalian NHE1, that regulates pH and volume in all cells, has been thoroughly scrutinized by...

SUMMARY Lithium (Li) has a wide range of uses in science, medicine and industry but its isotopy is underexplored, except in nuclear science and in geoscience. 6 Li and 7 Li isotopic ratio exhibits the second largest variation on Earth's surface and constitutes a widely used tool for reconstructing past oceans and climates. As large variations...

The sodium-proton exchanger 1 (NHE-1) is a membrane transporter that exchanges Na(+) for H(+) ion across the membrane of eukaryotic cells. It is cooperatively activated by intracellular protons, and this allosteric regulation is modulated by the biophysical properties of the plasma membrane and related lipid environment. Consequently, NHE-1 is...

Transmembrane CD95L (Fas ligand) can be cleaved to release a promigratory soluble ligand, cl-CD95L, which can contribute to chronic inflammation and cancer cell dissemination. The motility signaling pathway elicited by cl-CD95L remains poorly defined. Here, we show that in the presence of cl-CD95L, CD95 activates the Akt and RhoA signaling...

Apoptotic volume decrease (AVD) is prerequisite to apoptotic events that lead to cell death. In a previous study, we demonstrated in kidney proximal cells that the TASK2 channel was involved in the K+ efflux that occurred during regulatory volume decrease. The aim of the present study was to determine the role of the TASK2 channel in the...

Through kidney transplantation, ischemia/reperfusion is known to induce tissular injury due to cell energy shortage, oxidative stress, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. ER stress stems from an accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the lumen of ER, resulting in the unfolded protein response (UPR). Adaptive UPR pathways can...
