We aimed to investigate the effects of taste stimuli on slow and fast salivary secretion in humans using umami, sweet, and sour stimuli. Methods: Eight healthy women participated between 14:00 and 15:00, taking the circadian rhythm of salivary secretion into account. The types and concentrations of the taste solutions were glutamic acid (1.7 × 10<sup>−3</sup> M), inosinic acid (9.8 × 10<sup>−3</sup> M), and guanylic acid (9.8 × 10<sup>−3</sup> M) for umami stimulation, citric acid (6.5 × 10<sup>−3</sup> M) for acidity stimulation, and sucrose (1.6 × 10<sup>−2</sup> M) for sweetness stimulation. First, the unstimulated salivary flow rate was measured. Then, 3 ml of a flavor solution was dropped under the tongue using a syringe. The saliva was expelled into an aluminum cup every minute and weighed. The first minute’s value minus 3 ml flavor solution was the stimulated salivary secretion rate produced by each flavor. The time-to-return to the initial unstimulated salivary flow rate was the duration of the stimulated saliva secretion rate. Results: The mean unstimulated salivary flow rate across participants was 0.64 ± 0.25 ml/min (range: 0.23 - 1.03 ml/min). The highest amount of saliva was induced by citric acid. There were significant differences between citric acid and the other flavor solutions (p < 0.05 for glutamic acid, inosinic acid, and sucrose;p < 0.01 for guanylic acid). There were no significant differences in duration of salivation between the flavor solutions. When the participants were divided into slow (0.45 ± 0.16 ml/min) and fast groups (0.83 ± 0.15 ml/min) based on their median resting salivary secretion rate, there were no significant differences between the two groups in the amount of saliva secreted at 1 minute after stimulation and the duration of the salivary secretion rate. Conclusion: Umami stimulation was effective in slowing salivary secretion and sustaining salivary secretion after stimulation. 展开更多

Type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM) lacks insulin secretion due to autoimmune deficiency of pancreaticβ-cells.Protecting pancreatic islets and enhancing insulin secretion has been therapeutic approaches.Mannogalactoglucan is the main type of polysaccharide from natural mushroom,which has potential medicinal prospects.Nevertheless,the antidiabetic property of mannogalactoglucan in T1DM has not been fully elucidated.In this study,we obtained the neutral fraction of alkali-soluble Armillaria mellea polysaccharide(AAMP-N) with the structure of mannogalactoglucan from the fruiting body of A.mellea and investigated the potential therapeutic value of AAMP-N in T1DM.We demonstrated that AAMP-N lowered blood glucose and improved diabetes symptoms in T1DM mice.AAMP-N activated unfolded protein response(UPR) signaling pathway to maintain ER protein folding homeostasis and promote insulin secretion in vivo.Besides that,AAMP-N promoted insulin synthesis via upregulating the expression of transcription factors,increased Ca^(2+) signals to stimulate intracellular insulin secretory vesicle transport via activating calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase Ⅱ(CamkⅡ) and cAMP/PKA signals,and enhanced insulin secretory vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane via vesicle-associated membrane protein 2(VAMP2).Collectively,these studies demonstrated that the therapeutic potential of AAMP-N on pancreatic islets function,indicating that mannogalactoglucan could be natural nutraceutical used for the treatment of T1DM. 展开更多

Background: We aimed to evaluate the short-term metabolic effects of a GLP-1a, (liraglutide) versus a DPP-4i, (vildagliptin) in a group of sub-Saharan type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: We conducted a randomized controlled single blinded clinical trial in 14 uncontrolled type 2 diabetes patients (HbA1c ≥ 53 mmol/mol) with mean duration of diabetes of 8 [1 - 12] years and median age of 57 [49 - 61] years. Baseline treatment consisted of metformin in monotherapy or metformin plus sulfonylureas. Participants were randomly allocated to 2 groups of add-on 1.2 mg/day subcutaneous liraglutide in group 1 or 100 mg/day of oral vildagliptin in group 2 for 2 weeks. In all participants, insulin secretion in response to mixed meal tolerance test, insulin sensitivity by 80 mU/m<sup>2</sup>/min hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, body composition, and lipid profile were measured before and after intervention. Results: At the end of intervention, insulin sensitivity remained unchanged both with liraglutide from 6.6 [4.2 - 7.9] to 6.9 [4.3 - 10.8] mg/kg/min;p = 0.61 and vildagliptin from 7.1 [5.3 - 9.0] to 6.5 [5.6 - 9.4] mg/kg/min (p = 0.86). The area under the C-peptide curve varied from 5.5 [1.0 - 10.9] to 14.9 [10.8 - 17.2] nmol/L/120min, p = 0.09 in group 1 and from 1.1 [0.5 - 14.1] to 13.0 [9.6 - 16.9] nmol/L/120min (p = 0.17) in group 2. LDL Cholesterol levels decreased significantly with liraglutide from 0.85 g/L [0.51 - 1.02] to 0.54 g/L [0.50 - 0.73] (p = 0.04) but not with Vildagliptin. Body weight tended to decrease in group 1 (&#8722;0.6 kg) versus modest increase in group 2 (+1.1 kg). Conclusion: Short-term metabolic effects of Liraglutide and Vildagliptin add-on therapy are comparable in sub-Saharan type 2 diabetes patients with a more favorable trend for Liraglutide on body weight, lipid profile, and insulin secretion. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)is a homeostatic state between euglycemia and hyperglycemia and is considered an early high-risk state of diabetes.When IGT occurs,insulin sensitivity decreases,causing a reduction in insulin secretion and an increase in glucagon secretion.Recently,vascular endothelial growth factor B(VEGFB)has been demonstrated to play a positive role in improving glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity.Therefore,we constructed a mouse model of IGT through high-fat diet feeding and speculated that VEGFB can regulate hyperglycemia in IGT by influencing insulin-mediated glucagon secretion,thus contributing to the prevention and cure of prediabetes.AIM To explore the potential molecular mechanism and regulatory effects of VEGFB on insulin-mediated glucagon in mice with IGT.METHODS We conducted in vivo experiments through systematic VEGFB knockout and pancreatic-specific VEGFB overexpression.Insulin and glucagon secretions were detected via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and the protein expression of phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)was determined using western blot.Further,mRNA expression of forkhead box protein O1,phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase,and glucose-6 phosphatase was detected via quantitative polymerase chain reaction,and the correlation between the expression of proteins was analyzed via bioinformatics.RESULTS In mice with IGT and VEGFB knockout,glucagon secretion increased,and the protein expression of PI3K/AKT decreased dramatically.Further,in mice with VEGFB overexpression,glucagon levels declined,with the activation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.CONCLUSION VEGFB/vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 can promote insulin-mediated glucagon secretion by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to regulate glucose metabolism disorders in mice with IGT. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Holoprosencephaly(HPE)is a congenital malformation with various degrees of incomplete separation of the cerebral hemispheres due to differentiation disorders of the forebrain.Although HPE with diabetes insipidus due to associated pituitary dysfunction has been reported,HPE with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion(SIADH)is very rare.Tolvaptan,a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist,is effective in adults with SIADH.However,there is no report of its efficacy in infants with SIADH.The purpose of this report is to demonstrate that tolvaptan is effective for SIADH in infants and that administration of tolvaptan eliminates the need for restriction of water intake and sodium administration.CASE SUMMARY A 2414-g female infant was born at 38 wk by normal vaginal delivery.Facial anomalies and head magnetic resonance imaging indicated semilobar HPE.After birth,she had hyponatremia due to SIADH and was treated using water and sodium restriction.However,she developed an exaggerated response to the fluid restrictions,resulting in large fluctuations in serum sodium levels.Subsequent administration of tolvaptan improved the fluctuations in serum sodium levels without the need for adjustment of water or sodium administration.Serum sodium was maintained within the normal range after discontinuation of tolvaptan at 80 d of life.There were no side effects,such as hypernatremia or liver dysfunction,during the administration of tolvaptan.CONCLUSION This is the first report on the safety and efficacy of tolvaptan in an infant with SIADH associated with HPE. 展开更多

AIM: Gastric inhibitory polypeptide is secreted from intestinal K-cells in response to nutrient ingestion and acts as an incretin hormone in human physiology. While animal experiments suggested a role for GIP as an inhibitor of gastric secretion, the GIP effects on gastric acid output in humans are still controversial. METHODS: Pentagastrin was administered at an infusion rate of 1 μg . kg^-1 . h^-1 over 300 min in 8 patients with type 2 diabetes (2 female, 6 male, 54± 10 years, BMI 30.5 ± 2.2 kg/m^2; no history of autonomic neuropathy) and 8 healthy subjects (2/6, 46 ± 6 years., 28.9 ± 5.3 kg/ m^2). A hyperglycaemic clamp (140 mg/dl) was performed over 240 min. Placebo, GIP at a physiological dose (1 pmol . kg^-1 . min^-1), and GIP at a pharmacological dose (4 mol . kg^-1 . min^-1) were administered over 60 min each. Boluses of placebo, 20 pmol GIP/kg, and 80 pmol GIP/kg were injected intravenously at the beginning of each infusion period, respectively. Gastric volume, acid and chloride output were analysed in 15-min intervals. Capillary and venous blood samples were drawn for the determination of glucose and total GIP. Statistics were carried out by repeated-measures ANOVA and one-way ANOVA. RESULTS: Plasma glucose concentrations during the hyperglycaemic clamp experiments were not different between patients with type 2 diabetes and controls. Steady-state GIP plasma levels were 61 ±8 and 79 ± 12 pmol/I during the low-dose and 327±35 and 327± 17 pmol/I during the high-dose infusion of GIP, in healthy control subjects and in patients with type 2 diabetes, respectively (P= 0.23 and p 0.99). Pentagastrin markedly increased gastric acid and chloride secretion (P〈 0.001). There were no significant differences in the rates of gastric acid or chloride output between the experimental periods with placebo or any dose of GIP. The temporal patterns of gastric acid and chloride secretion were similar in patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy controls (P= 0.86 and P= 0.61, respectively). CONCLUSION: Pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion is similar in patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy controls. GIP administration does not influence gastric acid secretion at physiological or pharmacological plasma levels. Therefore, GIP appears to act as an incretin rather than as an enterogastrone in human physiology. 展开更多

Abstract AIM To investigate whether PMN from patients with IBD or infectious colitis, respectively, secrete increased amounts of pro inflammatory cytokines and can be regulated by IL 10. METHODS Secretion (ELISA) as well as corresponding mRNA levels (semiquantitative RT PCR) of pro inflammatory cytokines (IL 1β, TNF α) and of IL 1 receptor antagonist were assessed in peripheral PMN. RESULTS PMN from patients with IBD are primed to secrete enhanced amounts of pro inflammatory cytokines accompanied by detection of corresponding mRNAs in comparison with normal controls. This finding is not specific for IBD but rather reflects intestinal inflammation in general. IL 10 markedly inhibited proinflammatory cytokine secretion as well as corresponding mRNA concentrations. CONCLUSION PMN are an important source of pro inflammatory cytokines in patients with intestinal inflammation and can be downregulated by IL 10. 展开更多

Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)is a chronic,recurring,and remitting functional disorder of the gastrointestinal tract characterized by abdominal pain,distention,and changes in bowel habits.Although there are several drugs for IBS,effective and approved treatments for one or more of the symptoms for various IBS subtypes are needed.Improved understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms such as the role of impaired bile acid metabolism,neurohormonal regulation,immune dysfunction,the epithelial barrier and the secretory properties of the gut has led to advancements in the treatment of IBS.With regards to therapies for restoring intestinal permeability,multiple studies with prebiotics and probiotics are ongoing,even if to date their efficacy has been limited.In parallel,much progress has been made in targeting low-grade inflammation,especially through the introduction of drugs such as mesalazine and rifaximin,even if a better knowledge of the mechanisms underlying the low-grade inflammation in IBS may allow the design of clinical trials that test the efficacy and safety of such drugs.This literature review aims to summarize the findings related to new and investigational therapeutic agents for IBS,most recently developed in preclinical as well as Phase 1 and Phase 2clinical studies. 展开更多

Ghrelin, a novel growth hormone-releasing peptide, was originally isolated from rat and human stomach. Ghrelin has been known to increase the secretion of growth hormone (GH), food intake, and body weight gain when administered peripherally or centrally. Ghrelin is also known to stimulate the gastric motility and the secretion of gastric acid. In the previous studies, the action of ghrelin on acid secretion was shown to be as strong as that of histamine and gastrin in in-vivo experiment. In the studies, the mechanism for the action of ghrelin was also investigated. It was shown that vagotomy completely inhibited the action of ghrelin on the secretion of gastric acid suggesting that vagal nerve is involved in the mechanism for the action of ghrelin on acid secretion. As famotidine did not inhibit ghrelin-in-duced acid secretion in the study by Masuda et al, they concluded that histamine was not involved in the action of ghrelin on acid secretion. However, we have shown that famotidine completely inhibited ghrelin-induced acid secretion and histidine decarboxylase (HDC) mRNA was increased in gastric mucosa by ghrelin injection which is inhibited by vagotomy Our results indicate that histamine is involved in the action of ghrelin on acid secretion. Furthermore synergistic action of gastrin and ghrelin on gastric acid secretion was shown. Although gastrin has important roles in postprandial secretion of gastric acid, ghrelin may be related to acid secretion during fasting period or at night. However, further studies are needed to elucidate the physiological role of ghrelin in acid secretion. 展开更多

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) attracts increasing attention from both research and clinical fields because of its important functions in the central nervous system. An adequate amount of BDNF is critical to develop and maintain normal neuronal circuits in the brain. Given that loss of BDNF function has beenreported in the brains of patients with neurodegenerative or psychiatric diseases, understanding basic properties of BDNF and associated intracellular processes is imperative. In this review, we revisit the gene structure, transcription, translation, transport and secretion mechanisms of BDNF. We also introduce implications of BDNF in several brain-related diseases including Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, depression and schizophrenia. 展开更多

AIM:Danshen's capability to induce salivary fluid secretion and its mechanisms were studied to determine if it could improve xerostomia.METHODS:Submandibular glands were isolated from male Wistar rats under systemic anesthesia with pentobarbital sodium.The artery was cannulated and vascularly perfused at a constant rate.The excretory duct was also cannulated and the secreted saliva was weighed in a cup on an electronic balance.The weight of the accumulated saliva was measured every 3 s and the salivary flow rate was calculated.In addition,the arterio-venous difference in the partial oxygen pressure was measured as an indicator of oxygen consumption.In order to assess the mechanism involved in Dansheninduced fluid secretion,either ouabain(an inhibitor of Na+/K+ ATPase) or bumetanide(an inhibitor of NKCC1) was additionally applied during the Danshen stimulation.In order to examine the involvement of the main membrane receptors,atropine was added to block the M3 muscarinic receptors,or phentolamine was added to block the α1 adrenergic receptors.In order to examine the requirement for extracellular Ca2+,Danshen was applied during the perfusion with nominal Ca2+ free solution.RESULTS:Although Danshen induced salivary fluid secretion,88.7 ± 12.8 μL/g-min,n = 9,(the highest value around 20 min from start of DS perfusion was significantly high vs 32.5 ± 5.3 μL/g-min by carbamylcholine,P = 0.00093 by t-test) in the submandibular glands,the time course of that secretion differed from that induced by carbamylcholine.There was a latency associated with the fluid secretion induced by Danshen,followed by a gradual increasein the secretion to its highest value,which was in turn followed by a slow decline to a near zero level.The application of either ouabain or bumetanide inhibited the fluid secretion by 85% or 93%,and suppressed the oxygen consumption by 49% or 66%,respectively.These results indicated that Danshen activates Na+/K+ ATPase and NKCC1 to maintain Cl- release and K+ release for fluid secretion.Neither atropine or phentolamine inhibited the fluid secretion induced by Danshen(263% ± 63% vs 309% ± 45%,227% ± 63% vs 309% ± 45%,P = 0.899,0.626 > 0.05 respectively,by ANOVA).Accordingly,Danshen does not bind with M3 or α1 receptors.These characteristics suggested that the mechanism involved in DS-induced salivary fluid secretion could be different from that induced by carbamylcholine.Carbamylcholine activates the M3 receptor to release inositol trisphosphate(IP3) and quickly releases Ca2+ from the calcium stores.The elevation of [Ca2+]i induces chloride release and quick osmosis,resulting in an onset of fluid secretion.An increase in [Ca2+]i is essential for the activation of the luminal Cl- and basolateral K+ channels.The nominal removal of extracellular Ca2+ totally abolished the fluid secretion induced by Danshen(1.8 ± 0.8 μL/g-min vs 101.9 ± 17.2 μL/g-min,P = 0.00023 < 0.01,by t-test),suggesting the involvement of Ca2+ in the activation of these channels.Therefore,IP3-store Ca2+ release signalling may not be involved in the secretion induced by Danshen,but rather,there may be a distinct signalling process.CONCLUSION:The present findings suggest that Danshen can be used in the treatment of xerostomia,to avoid the systemic side effects associated with muscarinic drugs. 展开更多

AIM: TO determine whether Chinese herbs (CHs) relieve xerostomia (dry mouth) by increasing salivary secretion. METHODS: The submandibular glands of Wistar rats were surgically isolated and perfused arterially with buffered salt solution. After control perfusion, recording started 5 min prior to the start of stimulation. After fluid secretion was induced by 0.2 μmol/L carbamylcholine (CCh) in the perfusate for 10 min, Chinese herb (CH) was added in the perfusion for 5 min. CCh was then overloaded at 0.2 μmol/L in the perfusion for 20 min. The volume of salivary fluid secretion was recorded by a computer-controlled balance system. RESULTS: Saliva secretion formed an initial ephemeral peak at 30 s followed by a gradual increase to a sustained level. CH alone induced no or little saliva in all types of CH selected. During perfusion with CH,overloading of CCh promoted fluid secretion in 1S of 20 CHs. This promotion was classified into four patterns, which were eventually related to the categories of CH: Overall sustained phase was continuously raised (Yin-nourishing, fluid production-promoting and heatclearing agents); The sustained secretion rose to reach a maximum then decreased (Qi-enhancing agent); Sustained secretion rose to reach the highest maximum and was then sustained with a slight decline (swelling-reducing, phlegm-resolving and pus-expelling agents); Stimulation of salivary secretion without any added stimulants. Addition of CCh raised the fluid secretion to reach the highest maximum then sharply decreased to a lower sustained level (blood activating agent). CONCLUSION: The present findings lead to the conclusion that various CHs have different promotional effects directly on the salivary gland. 展开更多

AIM To study the peripheral mechanism of the inhibitory effect of intra third ventricular administration (icv) of histamine (HA) on gastric acid secretion in rats. METHODS Gastric acid was continuously washed with 37℃ saline by a perfusion pump in male adrenalectomized SD rats. Drugs were injected intravenously (iv) by a syringe pump and their effect on pentagastrin induced (10μg·kg·h, iv) gastric acid secretion was observed. RESULTS The inhibitory effect of HA (1μg, icv) on gastric acid secretion was blocked by subdiaphragmatic vagotomy, and pretreatment with atropine (0 005mg·kg·h, iv). Pretreatment with somatostatin antagonist, cyclo [7 aminoheptanoyl Phe D Trp Lys Thr(Bzl)], ( 2μg - 4μg ·kg· 100min , iv) could also block the inhibitory effect of HA on gastric acid secretion in a dose dependent manner. CONCLUSION The inhibitory effect of centrally administrated HA on gastric acid secretion may be mediated by vagi, acetylcholine M receptor and somatostatin. 展开更多

In the present study, we investigated the dynamic expression of fibroblast growth factor 8 and Sonic Hedgehog signaling pathway related factors in the process of in vitro hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cell differentiation from embryonic Sprague-Dawley rats or embryonic Kunming species mice, using fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription-PCR and western blot analyses. Results demonstrated that the dynamic expression of fibroblast growth factor 8 was similar to fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 expression but not to other fibroblast growth factor receptors. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay demonstrated that fibroblast growth factor 8 and Sonic Hedgehog signaling pathway protein factors were secreted by neural cells into the intercellular niche. Our experimental findings indicate that fibroblast growth factor 8 and Sonic Hedgehog expression may be related to the differentiation of neural stem/progenitor cells. 展开更多

AIM:To investigate the effects and mechanisms of action of glycine on phagocytosis and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α secretion by Kupffer cells in vitro. METHODS:Kupffer cells were isolated from normal rats by collagenase digestion and Percoll density gradient differential centrifugation.After culture for 24 h,Kupffer cells were incubated in fresh Dulbecco's Modification of Eagle's Medium containing glycine (G1:1 mmol/L,G2:10 mmol/L,G3:100 mmol/L and G4:300 mmol/L)for 3 h,then used to measure phagocytosis by a bead test,TNF-α secretion after lipopolysaccharide stimulation by radioactive immunoassay,and microfilament and microtubule expression by staining with phalloidin-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)or a monoclonal anti-α tubulin-FITC antibody, respectively,and evaluated under a ultraviolet fluorescence microscope. RESULTS:Glycine decreased the phagocytosis of Kupffer cells at both 30 min and 60 min(P<0.01,P< 0.05).The numbers of beads phagocytosed by Kupffer cells in 30 min were 16.9±4.0(control),9.6±4.1(G1), 12.1±5.7(G2),8.1±3.2(G3)and 7.5±2.0(G4),and were 22.5±7.9(control),20.1±5.8(G1),19.3±4.8 (G2),13.5±4.7(G3)and 9.2±3.1(G4)after 60 min. TNF-α secretion by Kupffer cells in G1(0.19±0.03),G2 (0.16±0.04),G3(0.14±0.03)and G4(0.13±0.05) was significantly less than that in controls(0.26±0.03, P<0.01),and the decrease in secretion was dose-dependent(P<0.05).Microfilaments of Kupffer cells in G2, G3 and G4 groups were arranged in a disorderly manner. The fluorescence densities of microtubules in G1(53.4± 10.5),G2(54.1±14.6),G3(64.9±12.1)and G4(52.1 ±14.2)were all lower than those in the controls(102.2 ±23.7,P<0.01),but the decrease in microtubule fluorescence density was not dose-dependant. CONCLUSION:Glycine can decrease the phagocytosis and secretion by Kupffer cells in vitro,which may be related to the changes in the expression of microfilaments and microtubules induced by Kupffer cells. 展开更多

Distribution and accumulation of Nd, and its effect on secretion of progesterone in mice were studied using radioisotope tracer ((()^(147)Nd)) technique. Following single intraperitoneal administration of neodymium traced with (()^(147)Nd) at a dose of 200 mg·kg^(-1), uneven distribution of the radioactive Nd occurred in various tissues and organs. Much amount of (()^(147)Nd) accumulates in the bone, and the residue increases with the lapse of time. Some amount of radioactivity was also detected in eyes, blood and brain, but the accumulation decreased with the time due to excretion and re-distribution in mice. In comparison with controls, concentration of progesterone is found to be significantly lower in the serum of administered mice, indicating a significantly inhibitory effect of Nd on secretion of progesterone. 展开更多

Malignant melanoma, characterized by invasive local growth and early formation of metastases, is the most aggressive type of skin cancer. Melanoma inhibitory activity (MIA), secreted by malignant melanoma cells, interacts with the cell adhesion receptors, integrins a4131 and 05131, facilitating cell detachment and promoting formation of me- tastases. In the present study, we demonstrate that MIA secretion is confined to the rear end of migrating cells, while in non-migrating cells MIA accumulates in the actin cortex. MIA protein takes a conventional secretory pathway including coat protein complex I (COPI)- and coat protein complex II (COPII)-dependent protein transport to the cell periphery, where its final release depends on intracellular Ca2+ ions. Interestingly, the Ca2+-activated K+-channel, subfamily N, member 4 (KCa3.1), known to be active at the rear end of migrating cells, was found to support MIA secretion. Secretion was diminished by the specific KCa3.1 channel inhibitor TRAM-34 and by expression of dominant- negative mutants of the channel. In summary, we have elucidated the migration-associated transport of MIA protein to the cell rear and also disclosed a new mechanism by which KCa3.1 potassium channels promote cell migration. 展开更多
