Ca2+-Mediated Thermal Sensing in Plants
(2017)Temperature is an omnipresent environmental factor that shapes the growth, development and survival of plants. However, global warming has been an inevitable process and caused unusual temperature patterns across the world. ... -
Investigating the role of calcium dynamics and the gap junction subunit Innexin3 in Drosophila epithelial morphogenesis
(2019)Cell-cell adhesions and intercellular ion channels, such as gap junctions regulate the synchronization of cells in an epithelium and promote proper embryonic epithelial organization and morphogenesis. Gap junctions regulate ... -
Single-cell functional analysis of parathyroid adenomas reveals distinct classes of calcium sensing behaviour in primary hyperparathyroidism.
(J Cell Mol Med, 2016-02)Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine neoplastic disorder caused by a failure of calcium sensing secondary to tumour development in one or more of the parathyroid glands. Parathyroid adenomas are comprised ... -
The use of comparative genomics to investigate mechanisms of cadmium induced transcription
(2009)Cadmium is a human carcinogen and a persistent environmental pollutant of increasing concern. Yet, the exact molecular targets of cadmium toxicity and the molecular mechanisms by which cadmium influences gene expression ... -
Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 4 Ion Channel Functions as a Pruriceptor in Epidermal Keratinocytes to Evoke Histaminergic Itch.
(J Biol Chem, 2016-05-06)TRPV4 ion channels function in epidermal keratinocytes and in innervating sensory neurons; however, the contribution of the channel in either cell to neurosensory function remains to be elucidated. We recently reported TRPV4 ...
