Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of anoctamin 1/TMEM16A by interstitial cells of Cajal is fundamental for slow wave activity in gastrointestinal muscles
Sung Jin Hwang,Peter J. Blair,Fiona C. Britton,Kate E O'Driscoll,Grant W. Hennig,Yulia Bayguinov,Jason R. Rock,Brian D. Harfe,Kenton M. Sanders,Sean M. Ward +9 more
TL;DR: The fundamental role of ANO1 is demonstrated in the generation of slow waves in GI ICC, which failed to develop by birth in mice homozygous for a null allele of Tmem16a and did not develop subsequent to birth in organ culture, as in wildtype and heterozygous muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative analysis of peristalsis in the guinea-pig small intestine using spatio-temporal maps.
TL;DR: Peristalsis was evoked in guinea‐pig small intestine by slow fluid infusion and spatio‐temporal maps of diameter and longitudinal movement were constructed and parameters of motion were calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mitochondrial genome encodes abundant small noncoding RNAs.
Seungil Ro,Hsiu Yen Ma,Hsiu Yen Ma,Chanjae Park,Nicole Ortogero,Rui Song,Rui Song,Grant W. Hennig,Huili Zheng,Yung Ming Lin,Loredana Moro,Jer Tsong Hsieh,Wei Yan +12 more
TL;DR: It is reported that the murine and human mitochondrial genomes encode thousands of small noncoding RNAs, which are predominantly derived from the sense transcripts of the mitochondrial genes (host genes), and they are termed mitochondrial genome-encoded small RNAs (mitosRNAs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Male germ cells express abundant endogenous siRNAs
TL;DR: It is shown that murine spermatogenic cells express numerous endo-siRNAs, which are likely to be derived from naturally occurring double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) precursors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical Slow Waves in the Mouse Oviduct Are Dependent upon a Calcium Activated Chloride Conductance Encoded by Tmem16a
Rose E. Dixon,Grant W. Hennig,Salah A. Baker,Fiona C. Britton,Brian D. Harfe,Jason R. Rock,Kenton M. Sanders,Sean M. Ward +7 more
TL;DR: Intracellular microelectrode recordings suggest that Tmem16a-encoded CaCCs contribute to membrane potential and are responsible for the upstroke and plateau phases of oviduct slow waves.
