Akinesia and freezing caused by Na+ leak‐current channel (NALCN) deficiency corrected by pharmacological inhibition of K+ channels and gap junctions
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Comparative Neurology"
DOI: 10.1002/cne.24119
Abstract: The Na+ leak‐current channel (NALCN) regulates locomotion, respiration, and intellectual development. Previous work highlighted striking similarities between characteristic movement phenotypes of NALCN‐deficient animals (Drosophila and Caenorhabditis elegans) and the major symptoms of Parkinson's disease and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/cphy.c220007
Abstract: Connexin proteins oligomerize in hexameric structures called connexin hemichannels, which then dock to form gap junctions. Gap junctions direct cell-cell communication by allowing the exchange of small molecules and ions between neighboring cells. In this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/glia.23513
Abstract: Gap junctions (GJs) coupling oligodendrocytes to astrocytes and to other oligodendrocytes are formed mainly by connexin47 (Cx47) and a smaller portion by connexin32 (Cx32). Mutations in both connexins cause inherited demyelinating disorders, but their expression… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jcp.28581
Abstract: The cross‐talk between cells is very critical for moving forward fracture healing in an orderly manner. Connexin (Cx) 43‐formed gap junctions and hemichannels mediate the communication between adjacent cells and cells and extracellular environment. Loss… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jnr.24088
Abstract: In the central nervous system (CNS), connexin (Cx)s and pannexin (Panx)s are an integral component of homeostatic neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity. Neuronal Cx gap junctions form electrical synapses across biochemically similar GABAergic networks, allowing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbr.2018.12.048
Abstract: ABSTRACT In the olfactory epithelium, olfactory sensitive neurons and their axons are surrounded by glia‐like cells called sustentacular cells, which maintain both the structural and ionic integrity of the olfactory mucosa. We have previously found… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2018.04.009
Abstract: Glutamate excitotoxicity, characterized as excessive glutamate stress, is considered to be involved in cerebral ischaemia, brain trauma, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. Glutamate homeostasis disruption was highlighted in Mn neurotoxicity… read more here.
