Slc4a8 in the Kidney: Expression, Subcellular Localization and Role in Salt Reabsorption
Conclusion: Slc4a8 (NDCBE) is absent in the CCD and is predominantly localized on the basolateral membrane of medullary collecting duct cells. Further, Slc4a8 deletion does not cause significant acid base or electrolyte abnormalities in pathophysiologic states. Additional studies are needed to examine the role of Slc4a8 (NDCBE) in intracellular pH and volume regulation in medullary collecting duct cells.Cell Physiol Biochem 2018;50:1361 –1375 (Source: Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry)

Dynamic Methylation Changes of DNA and H3K4 by RG108 Improve Epigenetic Reprogramming of Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer Embryos in Pigs
Conclusion: Dynamic changes in DNA methylation caused by RG108 result in dynamic alterations in the patterns of H3K4me3, H3K9Ac and histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3), which leads to the activation of embryonic genome and epigenetic modification enzymes associated with H3K4 methylation, and contributes to reconstructing normal epigenetic modifications and improving the developmental efficiency of porcine SCNT embryos.Cell Physiol Biochem 2018;50:1376 –1397 (Source: Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry)

UCP2 Mitigates the Loss of Human Spermatozoa Motility by Promoting mROS Elimination
Conclusion: These results suggest an UCP2 –mROS–motility regulatory system exists for maintaining spermatozoa mobility in humans. In such a system, UCP2 fulfills its function by promoting mROS elimination, and slightly over-produced mROS in turn serves as a signal to stimulates the expression of UCP2. This regulatory system represents a new potential target for the discovery of novel pharmaceuticals for the treatment of patients with low spermatozoa motility.Cell Physiol Biochem 2018;50:952 –962 (Source: Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry)
