General description
A cell-permeable modulator of Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ release. Inhibits Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ release from rat cerebellar microsomal preparations (IC50 = 42 µM) without affecting [3H]-Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding to its receptor. Does not affect Ca2+ release from the ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ store in rat leg skeletal muscle and heart. Inhibits spontaneous as well as the phasic contractions induced by uterotonic agents. Also reported to inhibit angiotensin II-induced contractions in aortic muscles.
A cell-permeable modulator of Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ release. Inhibits Ins(1,4,5)P3-induced Ca2+ release from rat cerebellar microsomal preparations (IC50 = 42 µM) without affecting [3H]-Ins(1,4,5)P3 binding to its receptor. In liver cells, 2-APB inhibits store-operated Ca2+ channels through a mechanism which may involve its binding to either the channel protein or an associated regulatory protein. Has no effect on the Ca2+ release from the ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ store prepared from rat leg skeletal muscle and heart.

Cerebrovascular pathology is pervasive in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet it is unknown whether cerebrovascular dysfunction contributes to the progression or etiology of AD. In human subjects and in animal models of AD, cerebral hypoperfusion and hypometabolism are reported to manifest

The ubiquitous Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel is crucial to many physiological functions. Both gain and loss of CRAC function is linked to disease. While ORAI1 is a crucial subunit of CRAC channels, recent evidence suggests that ORAI2 and ORAI3

Mitochondrial function and innate immunity are intimately linked; however, the mechanisms how mitochondrion-shaping proteins regulate innate host defense remains largely unknown. Herein we show that mitofusin-2 (MFN2), a mitochondrial fusion protein, promotes innate host defense through the maintenance of aerobic

Dry skin is a symptom of skin barrier dysfunction that evokes pruritus; however, the cutaneous neuroimmune interactions underlying dry skin-induced pruritus remain unclear. Therefore, we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying dry skin-induced pruritus. To this end, an acetone/ethanol/water (AEW)-induced
