Redox regulation of calcium ion channels: chemical and physiological aspects.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are increasingly recognized as second messengers in many cellular processes. While high concentrations of oxidants damage proteins, lipids and DNA, ultimately resulting in cell death, selective and reversible oxidation of key residues in proteins is a physiological mechanism that can transiently alter their activity and function. Defects in ROS producing enzymes ca...

Calcium Regulation of Ion Channels in Neurons

Intracellular calcium modulates the activity of a number of voltagedependent ion channels in neurons. This modulation is often functionally important, and can influence the responsiveness of cells to natural inputs. In extreme cases, the regulation of ion channels by intracellular calcium can even determine the pattern of electrical activity of neurons. In this review, I will summarize the role...

Redox regulation of protein tyrosine phosphatases: structural and chemical aspects.

Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are important targets of the H(2)O(2) that is produced during mammalian signal transduction. H(2)O(2)-mediated inactivation of PTPs also may be important in various pathophysiological conditions involving oxidative stress. Here we review the chemical and structural biology of redox-regulated PTPs. Reactions of H(2)O(2) with PTPs convert the catalytic cystein...

Redox regulation of cardiac calcium channels and transporters.

Intracellular concentrations of redox-active molecules can significantly increase in the heart as a result of activation of specific signal transduction pathways or the development of certain pathophysiological conditions. Changes in the intracellular redox environment can affect many cellular processes, including the gating properties of ion channels and the activity of ion transporters. Becau...

Redox Regulation of Ion Channels in the Pulmonary Circulation

SIGNIFICANCE The pulmonary circulation is a low-pressure, low-resistance, highly compliant vasculature. In contrast to the systemic circulation, it is not primarily regulated by a central nervous control mechanism. The regulation of resting membrane potential due to ion channels is of integral importance in the physiology and pathophysiology of the pulmonary vasculature. RECENT ADVANCES Redox...
