Ca2+ Influx through TRPC Channels Is Regulated by Homocysteine–Copper Complexes (2023)
Journal Article
Chen, G., Zeng, B., Jiang, H., Daskoulidou, N., Saurabh, R., Chitando, R. J., & Xu, S. (2023). Ca2+ Influx through TRPC Channels Is Regulated by Homocysteine–Copper Complexes. Biomolecules, 13(6), Article 952. https://doi.org/10.3390/biom13060952

An elevated level of circulating homocysteine (Hcy) has been regarded as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, the clinical benefit of Hcy lowering-therapy is not satisfying. To explore potential unrevealed mechanisms, we in... Read More about Ca2+ Influx through TRPC Channels Is Regulated by Homocysteine–Copper Complexes.

Mibefradil, a T-type Ca2+ channel blocker also blocks Orai channels by action at the extracellular surface (2019)
Journal Article
Li, P., Rubaiy, H. N., Chen, G., Hallett, T., Zaibi, N., Zeng, B., …Xu, S. (2019). Mibefradil, a T-type Ca2+ channel blocker also blocks Orai channels by action at the extracellular surface. British Journal of Pharmacology, 176, 3845–3856. https://doi.org/10.1111/bph.14788

Background and purpose Mibefradil (Mib), a T‐type Ca2+ channel blocker, has been investigated for treating solid tumours. However, its underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Here we aimed to investigate the pharmacological aspect of Mib on ORAI st... Read More about Mibefradil, a T-type Ca2+ channel blocker also blocks Orai channels by action at the extracellular surface.
