    Plasma MIC-1 correlates with systemic inflammation but is not an independent determinant of nutritional status or survival in oesophago-gastric cancer

    Macrophage inhibitory cytokine-1(MIC-1) is a potential modulator of systemic inflammation and nutritional depletion, both of which are adverse prognostic factors in oesophago-gastric cancer (OGC).

    Cation permeation and blockade of ROMK1, a cloned renal potassium channel

     ROMK1 is an inwardly rectifying K+ channel cloned from the outer medulla of rat kidney. We have determined the permeation and blocking characteristics for several monovalent cations in ROMK1 when expressed in Xe...

    Volume-activated, gadolinium-sensitive whole-cell currents in single proximal cells of frog kidney

    Stretch-activated channels (SACs) have been implicated in the control of epithelial cell volume. Such channels are generally sensitive to the trivalent lanthanide, gadolinium (Gd3+). In this study, using Gd3+ sen...

    Volume regulatory responses in frog isolated proximal cells

    Cells respond to increases in volume by activating solute efflux pathways, resulting in water loss and restoration of the original cell volume. The solute efflux pathways underlying these volume regulatory dec...
