Journal ArticleDOI

The serum- and glucocorticoid-induced kinase is a physiological mediator of aldosterone action.

TL;DR: The early onset of SGK induction in kidney and colon and the correlation with urinary changes in terms of both time course and dose response suggest that SGK plays an important role in mediating the effects of aldosterone on sodium homeostasis in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

SGK1 regulation of epithelial sodium transport.

TL;DR: SGK1 appears to have been implicated in membrane trafficking and possibly in the control of ion transport and cell volume in early single cell eukaryotes and in metazoan epithelia, it seems likely that SGK1 was adapted to the regulation of ions transport in response to hormonal and osmotic signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonsense-mediated decay in genetic disease: friend or foe?

TL;DR: The normal function of this RNA surveillance pathway and how it is regulated is reviewed, current evidence for the role that it plays in modulating genetic disease phenotypes is provided, and how NMD can be used as a therapeutic target is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microorganisms in the atmosphere over Antarctica

TL;DR: The behaviour of microorganisms in the Antarctic aerial environment is examined and the extent to which these microorganisms might influence Antarctic microbial biodiversity is examined.
