CAVIN1-Mediated hERG Dynamics: A Novel Mechanism Underlying the Interindividual Variability in Drug-Induced Long QT
CONCLUSIONS: Our study identifies unbridled turnover of the potassium channel hERG as a mechanism supporting the interindividual susceptibility underlying diLQT development and demonstrates how this phenomenon is finely tuned by CAVIN1.PMID:38682330 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.063917 (Source: Circulation)

From swamp to field: how genes from mangroves and its associates can enhance crop salinity tolerance
Mol Biol Rep. 2024 Apr 29;51(1):598. doi: 10.1007/s11033-024-09539-w.ABSTRACTSalinity stress is a critical challenge in crop production and requires innovative strategies to enhance the salt tolerance of plants. Insights from mangrove species, which are renowned for their adaptability to high-salinity environments, provides valuable genetic targets and resources for improving crops. A significant hurdle in salinity stress is the excessive uptake of sodium ions (Na+) by plant roots, causing disruptions in cellular balance, nutrient deficiencies, and hampered growth. Specific ion transporters and channels play crucial roles ...
