WNK Family Kinases and the Regulation of Ion Flux
… or WNK family of serine/threonine protein kinases have an unusual arrangement of their catalytic lysines. WNK1 and WNK4 have been genetically linked to a rare type of hypertension. Studies demonstrate that these kinases regulate the activity of a diverse group of proteins that in toto suggest …

The signalling pathways allowing hormonal regulation of Na+ transport in murine collecting duct cells
… duct of the distal nephron marks the final location where adjustments to Na+ excretion can be made, therefore determining the final concentration of Na+ conserved in the extracellular fluid which plays a role in governing overall blood volume and pressure. This transport of Na+ is …

Hormone-induced expression of the epithelial sodium channel in human airway cells
Respiratory distress syndrome and pulmonary oedema often result in poor health and in the worst case scenario, death. Several studies have proposed that the eventual resolution of these dangerous conditions is due to active sodium reabsorption through the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), which is …
