Identifying Protein Interactors of Voltage-Gated Sodium Channel Nav1.6 in Native Tissue
… to discover protein partners that interact with Nav1.6, a predominant isoform in the central nervous system, in different environmental conditions, with the premise that these could serve as druggable targets to improve treatment outcomes.

Targeting protein: protein interaction sites for drug development against voltage-gated sodium channels
… interface of FGF14 as critical for binding to Nav1.6 channels. Based on this information, we have identified a short sequence on FGF14 and designed a peptidomimetic (ZL181) fragment as an effective probe for modulating Nav1.6 channels as measured by luciferase-based assay. This peptidomimetic …

Regulation of signaling and function of the voltage-gated sodium channel complex by protein:protein interactions
… Specifically, we focused on the PPI between Nav1.6 and its regulatory protein, fibroblast growth factor 14 (FGF14). Using a newly developed assay we screen cellular pathways followed by biophysical validation, we discovered a mechanism by which the JAK2 tyrosine kinase might directly …

Characterization of the Increased Risk of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Following Early-Life Exposure to Deltamethrin
… and medium spiny neurons which highly express Nav1.6- both of which are key components of reward circuitry. These studies are further complemented by identification of behavioral aberrations that typify the human pathophysiology of ADHD. Together, this data identifies a possible mechanism …

Structural and functional characterization of signaling protein complexes
… to two high affinity sodium channel isoforms Nav1.4 and Nav1.6 was characterized.

CELLULAR ALTERATIONS OF ADULT HIPPOCAMPAL NEUROGENESIS IN THE FGF14−/− MOUSE MODEL
… the AIS, the voltage-gated sodium channel 1.6 (Nav1.6) α-subunit––an ion channel responsible for generating and propagating action potentials in mature neurons. My observations revealed a significant decrease in the Nav1.6 axonal expression level in the DG of Fgf14−/− mice. Knowing this, I …

Towards a more ethical animal model in biomedical research
… was designed to be combined with a floxed Nav1.7 ion channel mouse model. When a 4- hydrotamoxifan class small molecule is fed to the mouse, Cre recombinase expression in the peripheral nervous system will disrupt function of the ion channel involved in inflammatory and mechanosensory pain. …

Studies on voltage-gated sodium channel β3 subunit structure and cancer-related functions using single-chain variable fragment antibodies and bioinformatics
… more β-subunits. In humans, nine types of VGSC Nav1 channel α subunit isoforms (Nav1.1, Nav1.2, Nav1.3, Nav1.4, Nav1.5, Nav1.6, Nav1.7, Nav1.8, and Nav1.9) and four types of β subunit isoforms (β1, β2, β3, and β4) (gene names: *SCN1-11A* and *SCN1-4B*) have been identified in various tissues. …
