Mitral valve disease—morphology and mechanisms

TL;DR: The approach, which bridges clinicians and basic scientists, enables the correlation of observed disease with cellular and molecular mechanisms, leading to the discovery of new opportunities for improving the natural history of mitral valve disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polarized trafficking and surface expression of the AQP4 water channel are coordinated by serial and regulated interactions with different clathrin-adaptor complexes.

TL;DR: It is shown that two independent C‐terminal signals determine AQP4 basolateral membrane targeting in epithelial MDCK cells, and stress‐induced kinase casein kinase (CK)II phosphorylates the Ser276 immediately preceding the tyrosine motif, increasing AQp4–μ3A interaction and enhancing AQP 4–lysosomal targeting and degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired KCNQ1–KCNE1 and Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-Bisphosphate Interaction Underlies the Long QT Syndrome

TL;DR: It is shown that PIP2 affinity is reduced in three KCNQ1 mutant channels (R243H, R539W, and R555C) associated with the long QT syndrome, and the data suggest that a reduced PIP 2 affinity of KCNZ1 mutants can lead to the longQT syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kv7.1 (KCNQ1) properties and channelopathies

TL;DR: A considerable amount of work remains to be done to get a clear picture of the molecular mechanisms responsible for the pathogenesis related to each mutation of KCNQ1, and the present review gives three examples of recent studies towards this goal and illustrates the diversity of the Molecular mechanisms involved.
