Abstract
Group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILC1s) are cytotoxic and interferon gamma-producing lymphocytes lacking antigen-specific receptors, which include ILC1s and natural killer (NK) cells. In mice, ILC1s differ from NK cells, as they develop independently of the NK-specifying transcription factor EOMES, while requiring the repressor ZFP683 (ZNF683 in humans) for tissue residency. Here we identify highly variable ILC1 subtypes across tissues through investigation of human ILC1 diversity by single-cell RNA sequencing and flow cytometry. The intestinal epithelium contained abundant mature EOMES- ILC1s expressing PRDM1 rather than ZNF683, alongside a few immature TCF7+PRDM1- ILC1s. Other tissues harbored NK cells expressing ZNF683 and EOMES transcripts; however, EOMES protein content was variable. These ZNF683+ NK cells are tissue-imprinted NK cells phenotypically resembling ILC1s. The tissue ILC1-NK spectrum also encompassed conventional NK cells and NK cells distinguished by PTGDS expression. These findings establish a foundation for evaluating phenotypic and functional changes within the NK-ILC1 spectrum in diseases.

Abstract
Mechanical allodynia (MA) is the main reason that patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) seek medical advice. It severely debilitates the quality of life. Investigating hyperglycemia-induced changes in neural transcription could provide fundamental insights into the complex pathogenesis of painful DPN (PDPN). Gene expression profiles of physiological dorsal root ganglia (DRG) have been studied. However, the transcriptomic changes in DRG neurons in PDPN remain largely unexplored. In this study, by single-cell RNA sequencing on dissociated rat DRG, we identified five physiological neuron types and a novel neuron type MAAC (Fxyd7+/Atp1b1+) in PDPN. The novel neuron type originated from peptidergic neuron cluster and was characterized by highly expressing genes related to neurofilament and cytoskeleton. Based on the inferred gene regulatory networks, we found that activated transcription factors Hobx7 and Larp1 in MAAC could enhance Atp1b1 expression. Moreover, we constructed the cellular communication network of MAAC and revealed its receptor-ligand pairs for transmitting signals with other cells. Our molecular investigation at single-cell resolution advances the understanding of the dynamic peripheral neuron changes and underlying molecular mechanisms during the development of PDPN.

Abstract
The effect of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) using differential target multiplexed programming (DTMP) on proteins involved in the regulation of ion transport in spinal cord (SC) tissue of an animal model of neuropathic pain was evaluated in comparison to low rate (LR) SCS. Rats subjected to the spared nerve injury model (SNI) and implanted with a SCS lead were assigned to DTMP or LR and stimulated for 48 h. A No-SCS group received no stimulation, and a Sham group received no SNI or stimulation. Proteins in the dorsal ipsilateral quadrant of the stimulated SC were identified and quantified using mass spectrometry. Proteins significantly modulated by DTMP or LR relative to No-SCS were identified. Bioinformatic tools were used to identify proteins related to ion transport regulation. DTMP modulated a larger number of proteins than LR. More than 40 proteins significantly involved in the regulation of chloride (Cl-), potassium (K+), sodium (Na+), or calcium (Ca2+) ions were identified. SNI affected proteins that promote the increase of intracellular Ca2+, Na+, and K+ and decrease of intracellular Cl-. DTMP modulated proteins involved in glial response to neural injury that affect Ca2+ signaling. DTMP decreased levels of proteins related to Ca2+ transport that may result in the reduction of intracellular Ca2+. Presynaptic proteins involved in GABA vesicle formation and release were upregulated by DTMP. DTMP also upregulated postsynaptic proteins involved with elevated intracellular Cl-, while modulating proteins, expressed by astrocytes, that regulate postsynaptic Cl- inhibition. DTMP downregulated K+ regulatory proteins affected by SNI that affect neuronal depolarization, and upregulated proteins that are associated with a decrease of intracellular neuronal K+ and astrocyte uptake of extracellular K+. DTMP treatment modulated the expression of proteins with the potential to facilitate a reversal of dysregulation of ion transport and signaling associated with a model of neuropathic pain.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase is an ubiquitous enzyme actively transporting Na-ions out of the cell in exchange for K-ions, thereby maintaining their concentration gradients across the cell membrane. Since its discovery more than six decades ago the Na-pump has been studied extensively and its vital physiological role in essentially every cell has been established. This article aims at providing an overview of well-established biochemical properties with a focus on Na,K-ATPase isoforms, its transport mechanism and principle conformations, inhibitors, and insights gained from crystal structures. © 2021 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
Tight regulation of the Na/K pump is essential for cellular function because this heteromeric protein builds and maintains the electrochemical gradients for Na+ and K+ that energize electrical signaling and secondary active transport. We studied the regulation of the ubiquitous human α1β1 pump isoform by five human FXYD proteins normally located in muscle, kidney, and neurons. The function of Na/K pump α1β1 expressed in Xenopus oocytes with or without FXYD isoforms was evaluated using two-electrode voltage clamp and patch clamp. Through evaluation of the partial reactions in the absence of K+ but presence of Na+ in the external milieu, we demonstrate that each FXYD subunit alters the equilibrium between E1P(3Na) and E2P, the phosphorylated conformations with Na+ occluded and free from Na+, respectively, thereby altering the apparent affinity for Na+. This modification of Na+ interaction shapes the small effects of FXYD proteins on the apparent affinity for external K+ at physiological Na+. FXYD6 distinctively accelerated both the Na+-deocclusion and the pump-turnover rates. All FXYD isoforms altered the apparent affinity for intracellular Na+ in patches, an effect that was observed only in the presence of intracellular K+. Therefore, FXYD proteins alter the selectivity of the pump for intracellular ions, an effect that could be due to the altered equilibrium between E1 and E2, the two major pump conformations, and/or to small changes in ion affinities that are exacerbated when both ions are present. Lastly, we observed a drastic reduction of Na/K pump surface expression when it was coexpressed with FXYD1 or FXYD6, with the former being relieved by injection of PKA's catalytic subunit into the oocyte. Our results indicate that a prominent effect of FXYD1 and FXYD6, and plausibly other FXYDs, is the regulation of Na/K pump trafficking.

Abstract
Mutations in genes encoding Na+ /K+ -ATPase α1, α2, and α3 subunits cause a wide range of disabling neurological disorders, and dysfunction of Na+ /K+ -ATPase may contribute to neuronal injury in stroke and dementia. To better understand the pathogenesis of these diseases, it is important to determine the expression patterns of the different Na+ /K+ -ATPase subunits within the brain and among specific cell types. Using two available scRNA-Seq databases from the adult mouse nervous system, we examined the mRNA expression patterns of the different isoforms of the Na+ /K+ -ATPase α, β and Fxyd subunits at the single-cell level among brain regions and various neuronal populations. We subsequently identified specific types of neurons enriched with transcripts for α1 and α3 isoforms and elaborated how α3-expressing neuronal populations govern cerebellar neuronal circuits. We further analyzed the co-expression network for α1 and α3 isoforms, highlighting the genes that positively correlated with α1 and α3 expression. The top 10 genes for α1 were Chn2, Hpcal1, Nrgn, Neurod1, Selm, Kcnc1, Snrk, Snap25, Ckb and Ccndbp1 and for α3 were Sorcs3, Eml5, Neurod2, Ckb, Tbc1d4, Ptprz1, Pvrl1, Kirrel3, Pvalb, and Asic2.

Abstract
P-class pumps are specific ion transporters involved in maintaining intracellular/extracellular ion homeostasis, gene transcription, and cell proliferation and migration in all eukaryotic cells. The present review aimed to evaluate the role of P-type pumps [Na+/K+ ATPase (NKA), H+/K+ ATPase (HKA) and Ca2+-ATPase] in cancer cells across three fronts, namely structure, function and genetic expression. It has been shown that administration of specific P-class pumps inhibitors can have different effects by: i) Altering pump function; ii) inhibiting cell proliferation; iii) inducing apoptosis; iv) modifying metabolic pathways; and v) induce sensitivity to chemotherapy and lead to antitumor effects. For example, the NKA β2 subunit can be downregulated by gemcitabine, resulting in increased apoptosis of cancer cells. The sarcoendoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase can be inhibited by thapsigargin resulting in decreased prostate tumor volume, whereas the HKA α subunit can be affected by proton pump inhibitors in gastric cancer cell lines, inducing apoptosis. In conclusion, the present review highlighted the central role of P-class pumps and their possible use and role as anticancer cellular targets for novel therapeutic chemical agents.

Abstract
Maintenance of Na+ and K+ gradients across the cell plasma membrane is an essential process for mammalian cell survival. An enzyme responsible for this process, sodium-potassium ATPase (NKA), has been currently extensively studied as a potential anticancer target, especially in lung cancer and glioblastoma. To date, many NKA inhibitors, mainly of natural origin from the family of cardiac steroids (CSs), have been reported and extensively studied. Interestingly, upon CS binding to NKA at nontoxic doses, the role of NKA as a receptor is activated and intracellular signaling is triggered, upon which cancer cell death occurs, which lies in the expression of different NKA isoforms than in healthy cells. Two major CSs, digoxin and digitoxin, originally used for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, are also being tested for another indication—cancer. Such drug repositioning has a big advantage in smoother approval processes. Besides this, novel CS derivatives with improved performance are being developed and evaluated in combination therapy. This article deals with the NKA structure, mechanism of action, activity modulation, and its most important inhibitors, some of which could serve not only as a powerful tool to combat cancer, but also help to decipher the so-far poorly understood NKA regulation.

Abstract
The sodium/potassium-ATPase (NKA) is the enzyme that establishes gradients of sodium and potassium across the plasma membrane. NKA activity is tightly regulated for different physiological contexts through interactions with single-span transmembrane peptides, the FXYD proteins. This diverse family of regulators has in common a domain containing a Phe-X-Tyr-Asp (FXYD) motif, two conserved glycines, and one serine residue. In humans, there are seven tissue-specific FXYD proteins that differentially modulate NKA kinetics as appropriate for each system, providing dynamic responsiveness to changing physiological conditions. Our understanding of how FXYD proteins contribute to homeostasis has benefitted from recent advances described in this review: biochemical and biophysical studies have provided insight into regulatory mechanisms, genetic models have uncovered remarkable complexity of FXYD function in integrated physiological systems, new posttranslational modifications have been identified, high-resolution structural studies have revealed new details of the regulatory interaction with NKA, and new clinical correlations have been uncovered. In this review, we address the structural determinants of diverse FXYD functions and the special roles of FXYDs in various physiological systems. We also discuss the possible roles of FXYDs in protein trafficking and regulation of non-NKA targets.

Abstract
Niemann-Pick disease, type C1 (NPC1) is a lysosomal disease characterized by endolysosomal storage of unesterified cholesterol and decreased cellular cholesterol bioavailability. A cardinal symptom of NPC1 is cerebellar ataxia due to Purkinje neuron loss. To gain an understanding of the cerebellar neuropathology we obtained single cell transcriptome data from control (Npc1+/+) and both three-week-old presymptomatic and seven-week-old symptomatic mutant (Npc1-/-) mice. In seven-week-old Npc1-/- mice, differential expression data was obtained for neuronal, glial, vascular, and myeloid cells. As anticipated, we observed microglial activation and increased expression of innate immunity genes. We also observed increased expression of innate immunity genes by other cerebellar cell types, including Purkinje neurons. Whereas neuroinflammation mediated by microglia may have both neuroprotective and neurotoxic components, the contribution of increased expression of these genes by non-immune cells to NPC1 pathology is not known. It is possible that dysregulated expression of innate immunity genes by non-immune cells is neurotoxic. We did not anticipate a general lack of transcriptomic changes in cells other than microglia from presymptomatic three-week-old Npc1-/- mice. This observation suggests that microglia activation precedes neuronal dysfunction. The data presented in this paper will be useful for generating testable hypotheses related to disease progression and Purkinje neurons loss as well as providing insight into potential novel therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
It was shown previously that inhibition of the ubiquitous α1 isoform of Na+,K+-ATPase by ouabain sharply affects gene expression profile via elevation of intracellular [Na+]i/[K+]i ratio. Unlike other cells, neurons are abundant in the α3 isoform of Na+,K+-ATPase, whose affinity in rodents to ouabain is 104-fold higher compared to the α1 isoform. With these sharp differences in mind, we compared transcriptomic changes in rat cerebellum granule cells triggered by inhibition of α1- and α3-Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms. Inhibition of α1- and α3-Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms by 1 mM ouabain resulted in dissipation of transmembrane Na+ and K+ gradients and differential expression of 994 transcripts, whereas selective inhibition of α3-Na+,K+-ATPase isoform by 100 nM ouabain affected expression of 144 transcripts without any impact on the [Na+]i/[K+]i ratio. The list of genes whose expression was affected by 1 mM ouabain by more than 2-fold was abundant in intermediates of intracellular signaling and transcription regulators, including augmented content of Npas4, Fos, Junb, Atf3, and Klf4 mRNAs, whose upregulated expression was demonstrated in neurons subjected to electrical and glutamatergic stimulation. The role [Na+]i/[K+]i-mediated signaling in transcriptomic changes involved in memory formation and storage should be examined further.

Abstract
Astrocytic glycogen is the sole glucose reserve of the brain. Both glycogen and glucose are necessary for basic neurophysiology and in turn for higher brain functions. In spite of low concentration, turnover and stimulation-induced degradation, any interference with normal glycogen metabolism in the brain severely affects neuronal excitability and disrupts memory formation. Here, I briefly discuss the glycogenolysis-induced glucose-sparing effect, which involves glucose phosphates as key allosteric effectors in the modulation of astrocytic and neuronal glucose uptake and phosphorylation. I further advance a novel and thus far unexplored effect of glycogenolysis that might be mediated by glucose phosphates.

Abstract
Na+-K+-ATPase, an α/β heterodimer, is an ancient enzyme that maintains Na+ and K+ gradients, thus preserving cellular ion homeostasis. In multicellular organisms, this basic housekeeping function is integrated to fulfill the needs of specialized organs and preserve whole-body homeostasis. In vertebrates, Na+-K+-ATPase is essential for many fundamental physiological processes, such as nerve conduction, muscle contraction, nutrient absorption, and urine excretion. During vertebrate evolution, three key developments contributed to diversification and integration of Na+-K+-ATPase functions. Generation of novel α- and β-subunits led to formation of multiple Na+-K+-ATPase isoenyzmes with distinct functional characteristics. Development of a complex endocrine system enabled efficient coordination of diverse Na+-K+-ATPase functions. Emergence of FXYDs, small transmembrane proteins that regulate Na+-K+-ATPase, opened new ways to modulate its function. FXYDs are a vertebrate innovation and an important site of hormonal action, suggesting they played an especially prominent role in evolving interaction between Na+-K+-ATPase and the endocrine system in vertebrates.

Abstract
FXYD proteins are crucial regulators of Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA), which plays an important role in ion exchange by providing the driving force for other ion-transporting systems in the osmoregulatory organs, including the gills. In milkfish (Chanos chanos), gill NKA has been widely investigated and found to alter its expression (both mRNA and protein) and activity in response to environmental salinity changes. However, the expression and roles of the regulatory proteins of NKA, the FXYD proteins, in milkfish gills upon salinity challenge is not yet clear. Hence, this study illustrated the potential roles of milkfish branchial FXYD proteins in modulating NKA expression via identification and tissue distributions of FXYD proteins, as well as the effects of salinity on expression of gill fxyd and nka mRNA. Six milkfish FXYD proteins (CcFXYD) were identified. In milkfish gill, gill-specific Ccfxyd11 was the predominant member, followed by Ccfxyd9 and Ccfxyd8. Upon hypoosmotic challenges, increases in gill Ccfxyd11, Ccfxyd8, Ccnka α1, and Ccnka β1 mRNA as well as significantly positive correlations were observed. Moreover, after acute salinity changes, expression of gill Ccfxyd11 and Ccnka was found to change with ambient salinity, and significant positive correlations were also exhibited between Ccfxyd11 and Ccnka α1. Overall, these results revealed close relationships between CcFXYD11 and CcNKA α1 in milkfish gills, highlighting the potential roles of CcFXYD11 in osmoregulation.

Abstract
Contactin-associated protein 1 (CASPR1 or CNTNAP1) was recently reported to be expressed in brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs), the major component of the blood-brain barrier. To investigate CASPR1's physiological role in BMECs, here we used CASPR1 as a bait in a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify CASPR1-interacting proteins and identified the β3 subunit of Na+/K+-ATPase (ATP1B3) as a CASPR1-binding protein. Using recombinant and purified CASPR1, RNAi, GST-pulldown, immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, and Na+/K+-ATPase activity assays, we found that ATP1B3's core proteins, but not its glycosylated forms, interact with CASPR1, which was primarily located in the endoplasmic reticulum of BMECs. CASPR1 knockdown reduced ATP1B3 glycosylation and prevented its plasma membrane localization, phenotypes that were reversed by expression of full-length CASPR1. We also found that the CASPR1 knockdown reduces the plasma membrane distribution of the α1 subunit of Na+/K+-ATPase, which is the major component assembled with ATP1B3 in the complete Na+/K+-ATPase complex. The binding of CASPR1 with ATP1B3, but not the α1 subunit, indicated that CASPR1 binds with ATP1B3 to facilitate the assembly of Na+/K+-ATPase. Furthermore, the activity of Na+/K+-ATPase was reduced in CASPR1-silenced BMECs. Interestingly, shRNA-mediated CASPR1 silencing reduced glutamate efflux through the BMECs. These results demonstrate that CASPR1 binds with ATP1B3 and thereby contributes to the regulation of Na+/K+-ATPase maturation and trafficking to the plasma membrane in BMECs. We conclude that CASPR1-mediated regulation of Na+/K+-ATPase activity is important for glutamate transport across the blood-brain barrier.

Abstract
It was shown previously that inhibition of the ubiquitous α1 isoform of Na+,K+-ATPase by ouabain sharply affects gene expression profile via elevation of intracellular [Na+]i/[K+]i ratio. Unlike other cells, neurons are abundant in the α3 isoform of Na+,K+-ATPase, whose affinity in rodents to ouabain is 104-fold higher compared to the α1 isoform. With these sharp differences in mind, we compared transcriptomic changes in rat cerebellum granule cells triggered by inhibition of α1- and α3-Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms. Inhibition of α1- and α3-Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms by 1 mM ouabain resulted in dissipation of transmembrane Na+ and K+ gradients and differential expression of 994 transcripts, whereas selective inhibition of α3-Na+,K+-ATPase isoform by 100 nM ouabain affected expression of 144 transcripts without any impact on the [Na+]i/[K+]i ratio. The list of genes whose expression was affected by 1 mM ouabain by more than 2-fold was abundant in intermediates of intracellular signaling and transcription regulators, including augmented content of Npas4, Fos, Junb, Atf3, and Klf4 mRNAs, whose upregulated expression was demonstrated in neurons subjected to electrical and glutamatergic stimulation. The role [Na+]i/[K+]i-mediated signaling in transcriptomic changes involved in memory formation and storage should be examined further.

Abstract
Neuronal Na+/K+-ATPase is responsible for the maintenance of ionic gradient across plasma membrane. In doing so, in a healthy brain, Na+/K+-ATPase activity accounts for nearly half of total brain energy consumption. The α3-subunit containing Na+/K+-ATPase expression is restricted to neurons. Heterozygous mutations within α3-subunit leads to Rapid-onset Dystonia Parkinsonism, Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood and other neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Additionally, proteins such as α-synuclein, amyloid-β, tau and SOD1 whose aggregation is associated to neurodegenerative diseases directly bind and impair α3-Na+/K+-ATPase activity. The review will provide a summary of neuronal α3-Na+/K+-ATPase functional properties, expression pattern, protein-protein interactions at the plasma membrane, biophysical properties (distribution and lateral diffusion). Lastly, the role of α3-Na+/K+-ATPase in neurological and neurodegenerative disorders will be discussed. This article is part of the special issue entitled 'Mobility and trafficking of neuronal membrane proteins'.

Abstract
Developmental and tissue‐specific differences in isoforms allow Na+, K+‐ATPase function to be tightly regulated, as they control sensitivity to ions and inhibitors. Uterine contraction relies on the activity of the Na+, K+ATPase, which creates ionic gradients that drive excitation‐contraction coupling. It is unknown whether Na+, K+ATPase isoforms are regulated throughout pregnancy or whether they have a direct role in modulating uterine contractility. We hypothesized that gestation‐dependent differential expression of isoforms would affect contractile responses to Na+, K+ATPase α subunit inhibition with ouabain. Our aims were therefore: (1) to determine the gestation‐dependent expression of mRNA transcripts, protein abundance and tissue distribution of Na+, K+ATPase isoforms in myometrium; (2) to investigate the functional effects of differential isoform expression via ouabain sensitivity; and (3) if changes in contractile responses can be explained by changes in intracellular [Ca2+]. Changes in abundance and distribution of the Na+, K+ATPase α, β and FXYD1 and 2 isoforms, were studied in rat uterus from nonpregnant, and early, mid‐, and term gestation. All α, β subunit isoforms (1,2,3) and FXYD1 were detected but FXYD2 was absent. The α1 and β1 isoforms were unchanged throughout pregnancy, whereas α2 and α3 significant decreased at term while β2 and FXYD1 significantly increased from mid‐term onwards. These changes in expression correlated with increased functional sensitivity to ouabain, and parallel changes in intracellular Ca2+, measured with Indo‐1. In conclusion, gestation induces specific regulatory changes in expression of Na+, K+ATPase isoforms in the uterus which influence contractility and may be related to the physiological requirements for successful pregnancy and delivery.

Abstract
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the MECP2 gene. In the absence of MeCP2, expression of FXYD domain-containing transport regulator 1 (FXYD1) is deregulated in the frontal cortex (FC) of mice and humans. Because Fxyd1 is a membrane protein that controls cell excitability by modulating Na+, K+-ATPase activity (NKA), an excess of Fxyd1 may reduce NKA activity and contribute to the neuronal phenotype of Mecp2 deficient (KO) mice. To determine if Fxyd1 can rescue these RTT deficits, we studied the male progeny of Fxyd1 null males bred to heterozygous Mecp2 female mice. Maximal NKA enzymatic activity was not altered by the loss of MeCP2, but it increased in mice lacking one Fxyd1 allele, suggesting that NKA activity is under Fxyd1 inhibitory control. Deletion of one Fxyd1 allele also prevented the increased extracellular potassium (K+) accumulation observed in cerebro-cortical neurons from Mecp2 KO animals in response to the NKA inhibitor ouabain, and rescued the loss of dendritic arborization observed in FC neurons of Mecp2 KO mice. These effects were gene-dose dependent, because the absence of Fxyd1 failed to rescue the MeCP2-dependent deficits, and mimicked the effect of MeCP2 deficiency in wild-type animals. These results indicate that excess of Fxyd1 in the absence of MeCP2 results in deregulation of endogenous K+ conductances functionally associated with NKA and leads to stunted neuronal growth.

Abstract
FXYD proteins are important regulators of Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) activity in mammals. As an inhabitant of estuaries, the pufferfish (Tetraodon nigroviridis) responds to ambient salinity changes with efficient osmoregulation, including alterations in branchial, and renal NKA activities. Previous studies on teleostean FXYDs have mainly focused on the expression and potential functions of FXYD proteins in gills. The goal of the present study was to elucidate the potential role of FXYD8, a member of the fish FXYD protein family, in the modulation of NKA activity in the kidneys of this euryhaline pufferfish by using molecular, biochemical, and physiological approaches. The results demonstrate that T. nigroviridis FXYD8 (TnFXYD8) interacts with NKA in renal tubules. Meanwhile, the protein expression of renal TnFXYD8 was found to be significantly upregulated in hyperosmotic seawater-acclimated pufferfish. Moreover, overexpression of TnFXYD8 in Xenopus oocytes decreased NKA activity. Our results suggest the FXYD8 is able to modulate NKA activity through inhibitory effects upon salinity challenge. The present study further extends our understanding of the functions of FXYD proteins, the regulators of NKA, in vertebrates.

Na+,K+-ATPase creates transmembrane ion gradients crucial to the function of the central nervous system. The α-subunit of Na+,K+-ATPase exists as four isoforms (α1-α4). Several neurological phenotypes derive from α3 mutations. The effects of some of these mutations on Na+,K+-ATPase function have been studied in vitro. Here we discuss the α3 disease mutations as well as information derived from studies of corresponding mutations of α1 in the light of the high-resolution crystal structures of the Na+,K+-ATPase. A high proportion of the α3 disease mutations occur in the transmembrane sector and nearby regions essential to Na+ and K+ binding. In several cases the compromised function can be traced to disturbance of the Na+ specific binding site III. Recently, a secondary mutation was found to rescue the defective Na+ binding caused by a disease mutation. A perspective is that it may be possible to develop an efficient pharmaceutical mimicking the rescuing effect.

Abstract
Upon salinity challenge, the Na+-K+-ATPase (NKA) of fish kidney plays a crucial role in maintaining ion and water balance. Moreover, the FXYD protein family was found to be a regulator of NKA. Our preliminary results revealed that fxyd12 was highly expressed in the kidneys of the two closely related euryhaline medaka species (Oryzias dancena and O. latipes) from different natural habitats (brackish water and fresh water). In this study, we investigated the expression and association of renal FXYD12 and NKA α-subunit as well as potential functions of FXYD12 in the two medakas. These findings illustrated and compared the regulatory roles of FXYD12 for NKA in kidneys of the two medakas in response to salinity changes. In this study, at the mRNA and/or protein level, the expression patterns were similar for renal FXYD12 and NKA in the two medakas. However, different patterns of NKA activities and different interaction levels between FXYD12 and NKA were found in the kidneys of these two medakas. The results revealed that different strategies were used in the kidneys of the two medaka species upon salinity challenge. On the other hand, gene knockdown experiments demonstrated that the function of O. dancena FXYD12 allowed maintenance of a high level of NKA activity. The results of the present study indicated that the kidneys of the examined euryhaline medakas originating from brackish water and fresh water exhibited different modulatory mechanisms through which renal FXYD12 enhanced NKA activity to maintain internal homeostasis. Our findings broadened the knowledge of expression and functions of FXYD proteins, the modulators of NKA, in vertebrates.

Abstract
This paper describes the roles of the astrocytic Na(+), K(+)-ATPase for K(+) homeostasis in brain. After neuronal excitation it alone mediates initial cellular re-accumulation of moderately increased extracellular K(+). At higher K(+) concentrations it is assisted by the Na(+), K(+), 2Cl(-) transporter NKCC1, which is Na(+), K(+)-ATPase-dependent, since it is driven by Na(+), K(+)-ATPase-created ion gradients. Besides stimulation by high K(+), NKCC1 is activated by extracellular hypertonicity. Intense excitation is followed by extracellular K(+) undershoot which is decreased by furosemide, an NKCC1 inhibitor. The powerful astrocytic Na(+), K(+)-ATPase accumulates excess extracellular K(+), since it is stimulated by above-normal extracellular K(+) concentrations. Subsequently K(+) is released via Kir4.1 channels (with no concomitant Na(+) transport) for re-uptake by the neuronal Na(+), K(+)-ATPase which is in-sensitive to increased extracellular K(+), but stimulated by intracellular Na(+) increase. Operation of the astrocytic Na(+), K(+)-ATPase depends upon Na(+), K(+)-ATPase/ouabain-mediated signaling and K(+)-stimulated glycogenolysis, needed in these non-excitable cells for passive uptake of extracellular Na(+), co-stimulating the intracellular Na(+)-sensitive site. A gradual, spatially dispersed release of astrocytically accumulated K(+) will therefore not re-activate the astrocytic Na(+), K(+)-ATPase. The extracellular K(+) undershoot is probably due to extracellular hypertonicity, created by a 3:2 ratio between Na(+), K(+)-ATPase-mediated Na(+) efflux and K(+) influx and subsequent NKCC1-mediated volume regulation. The astrocytic Na(+), K(+)-ATPase is also stimulated by β1-adrenergic signaling, which further stimulates hypertonicity-activation of NKCC1. Brain ischemia leads to massive extracellular K(+) increase and Ca(2+) decrease. A requirement of Na(+), K(+)-ATPase signaling for extracellular Ca(2+) makes K(+) uptake (and brain edema) selectively dependent upon β1-adrenergic signaling and inhibitable by its antagonists.

Abstract
By interacting with Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (NKA), the FXYD domain-containing ion transport regulator (FXYD) is involved in teleost osmoregulation, but knowledge of FXYD in marine fish is limited. In the present study, fxyd11 and fxyd12 were identified from the spotted scat (Scatophagus argus), and the two members of the FXYD protein family were expressed in a tissue-specific manner. Fxyd11 mRNA was predominantly expressed in gills, whereas fxyd12 mRNA was mainly distributed in kidneys and intestines. Acute hyposaline stress altered the activity of NKA and the expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12 in gills, kidneys, and intestines. Branchial fxyd11 mRNA expression remained at a low level during freshwater acclimation, whereas NKA activity increased, showing a negative correlation that differed from previous reports. Similarly, renal expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12 mRNA was negatively correlated with NKA activity. Unlike in gills and kidneys, intestinal NKA activity and mRNA expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12 were comparably suppressed. Taken together, the salinity-dependent expression of fxyd11 and fxyd12, and correlation with NKA activity suggested that both fxyd11 and fxyd12 were involved in the response to acute hyposaline challenge in the spotted scat.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a heterogeneous family of neurological disorders that manifest as seizures, i.e. the hypersynchronous activity of large population of neurons. About 30% of epileptic patients do not respond to currently available antiepileptic drugs. Decades of intense research have elucidated the involvement of a number of possible signaling pathways, however, at present we do not have a fundamental understanding of epileptogenesis. In this paper, we review the literature on epilepsy under a wide-angle perspective, a mandatory choice that responds to the recurrent and unanswered question about what is epiphenomenal and what is causal to the disease. While focusing on the involvement of K+ and glutamate/GABA in determining neuronal hyperexcitability, emphasis is given to astrocytic contribution to epileptogenesis, and especially to loss-of-function of astrocytic glutamine synthetase following reactive astrogliosis, a hallmark of epileptic syndromes. We finally introduce the potential involvement of abnormal glycogen synthesis induced by excess glutamate in increasing susceptibility to seizures.

Abstract
Objective. To investigate the association of FXYD-3 expression with clinicopathological variables and PINCH in patients with ESCC. Patients and Methods. Expression of FXYD-3 protein was immunohistochemically examined in normal esophageal mucous (n = 20) and ESCC (n = 64). Results. Expression of FXYD-3 in the cytoplasm markedly increased from normal esophageal epithelial cells to primary ESCC (P = 0.001). The expression of FXYD-3 was correlated with TNM stages and depth of tumor invasion. Furthermore, the cases with lymph node metastasis tended to show a higher frequency of positive expression than those without metastasis (P = 0.086), and FXYD-3 expression tended to be positively related to the expression of PINCH (P = 0.063). Moreover, the cases positive for both proteins had the highest frequency of lymph node metastasis (P = 0.001). However, FXYD-3 expression was not correlated with patient's gender (P = 0.847), age (P = 0.876), tumor location (P = 0.279), size (P = 0.771), grade of differentiation (P = 0.279), and survival (P = 0.113). Conclusion. Overexpression of FXYD-3 in the cytoplasm may play an important role in the tumorigenesis and development in the human ESCC, particularly in combination with PINCH expression.

Abstract
Recent advances in brain energy metabolism support the notion that glycogen in astrocytes is necessary for the clearance of neuronally-released K(+) from the extracellular space. However, how the multiple metabolic pathways involved in K(+)-induced increase in glycogen turnover are regulated is only partly understood. Here we summarize the current knowledge about the mechanisms that control glycogen metabolism during enhanced K(+) uptake. We also describe the action of the ubiquitous Na(+)/K(+) ATPase for both ion transport and intracellular signaling cascades, and emphasize its importance in understanding the complex relation between glycogenolysis and K(+) uptake.

Abstract
As the only quantitatively significant Na efflux pathway from cardiac cells, the Na/K ATPase (Na pump) is the primary regulator of intracellular Na. The transmembrane Na gradient it establishes is essential for normal electrical excitability, numerous coupled-transport processes and, as the driving force for Na/Ca exchange, thus setting cardiac Ca load and contractility. As Na influx varies with electrical excitation, heart rate and pathology, the dynamic regulation of Na efflux is essential. It is now widely recognized that phospholemman, a 72 amino acid accessory protein which forms part of the Na pump complex, is the key nexus linking cellular signaling to pump regulation. Phospholemman is the target of a variety of post-translational modifications (including phosphorylation, palmitoylation and glutathionation) and these can dynamically alter the activity of the Na pump. This review summarizes our current understanding of the multiple regulatory mechanisms that converge on phospholemman and govern NA pump activity in the heart. The corrected Fig. 4 is reproduced below. The publisher would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused. [corrected].

Abstract
FXYD proteins are novel regulators of Na+-K+-ATPase (NKA). In fish subjected to salinity challenges, NKA activity in osmoregulatory organs (e.g., gills) is a primary driving force for the many ion transport systems that act in concert to maintain a stable internal environment. Although teleostean FXYD proteins have been identified and investigated, previous studies focused on only a limited group of species. The purposes of the present study were to establish the brackish medaka (Oryzias dancena) as a potential saltwater fish model for osmoregulatory studies and to investigate the diversity of teleostean FXYD expression profiles by comparing two closely related euryhaline model teleosts, brackish medaka and Japanese medaka (O. latipes), upon exposure to salinity changes. Seven members of the FXYD protein family were identified in each medaka species, and the expression of most branchial fxyd genes was salinity-dependent. Among the cloned genes, fxyd11 was expressed specifically in the gills and at a significantly higher level than the other fxyd genes. In the brackish medaka, branchial fxyd11 expression was localized to the NKA-immunoreactive cells in gill epithelia. Furthermore, the FXYD11 protein interacted with the NKA α-subunit and was expressed at a higher level in freshwater-acclimated individuals relative to fish in other salinity groups. The protein sequences and tissue distributions of the FXYD proteins were very similar between the two medaka species, but different expression profiles were observed upon salinity challenge for most branchial fxyd genes. Salinity changes produced different effects on the FXYD11 and NKA α-subunit expression patterns in the gills of the brackish medaka. To our knowledge, this report is the first to focus on FXYD expression in the gills of closely related euryhaline teleosts. Given the advantages conferred by the well-developed Japanese medaka system, we propose the brackish medaka as a saltwater fish model for osmoregulatory studies.

Abstract
FXYD proteins are a group of short single-span transmembrane proteins that interact with the Na(+)/K(+) ATPase and modulate its kinetic properties. This study characterizes intracellular trafficking of two FXYD family members, FXYD1 (phospholemman (PLM)) and FXYD7. Surface expression of PLM in Xenopus oocytes requires coexpression with the Na(+)/K(+) ATPase. On the other hand, the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger, another PLM-interacting protein could not drive it to the cell surface. The Na(+)/K(+) ATPase-dependent surface expression of PLM could be facilitated by either a phosphorylation-mimicking mutation at Thr-69 or a truncation of three terminal arginine residues. Unlike PLM, FXYD7 could translocate to the cell surface of Xenopus oocytes independently of the coexpression of α1β1 Na(+)/K(+) ATPase. The Na(+)/K(+) ATPase-independent membrane translocation of FXYD7 requires O-glycosylation of at least two of three conserved threonines in its ectodomain. Subsequent experiments in mammalian cells confirmed the role of conserved extracellular threonine residues and demonstrated that FXYD7 protein, in which these have been mutated to alanine, is trapped in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
The two autosomal dominantly inherited neurological diseases: familial hemiplegic migraine type 2 (FHM2) and familial rapid-onset of dystonia-parkinsonism (Familial RDP) are caused by in vivo mutations of specific alpha subunits of the sodium-potassium pump (Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase). Intriguingly, patients with classical FHM2 and RDP symptoms additionally suffer from other manifestations, such as epilepsy/seizures and developmental disabilities. Recent studies of FHM2 and RDP mouse models provide valuable tools for dissecting the vital roles of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPases, and we discuss their relevance to the complex patient symptoms and manifestations. Thus, it is interesting that mouse models targeting a specific α-isoform cause different, although still comparable, phenotypes consistent with classical symptoms and other manifestations observed in FHM2 and RDP patients. This review highlights that use of mouse models have broad potentials for future research concerning migraine and dystonia-related diseases, which will contribute towards understanding the, yet unknown, pathophysiologies.

Abstract
FXYD proteins are a family of seven small regulatory proteins, expressed in a tissue-specific manner, that associate with Na,K-ATPase as subsidiary subunits and modulate kinetic properties. This study describes an additional property of FXYD proteins as stabilizers of Na,K-ATPase. FXYD1 (phospholemman), FXYD2 (γ subunit), and FXYD4 (CHIF) have been expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. These FXYD proteins associate spontaneously in vitro with detergent-soluble purified recombinant human Na,K-ATPase (α1β1) to form α1β1FXYD complexes. Compared with the control (α1β1), all three FXYD proteins strongly protect Na,K-ATPase activity against inactivation by heating or excess detergent (C(12)E(8)), with effectiveness FXYD1 > FXYD2 ≥ FXYD4. Heating also inactivates E(1) ↔ E(2) conformational changes and cation occlusion, and FXYD1 protects strongly. Incubation of α1β1 or α1β1FXYD complexes with guanidinium chloride (up to 6 m) causes protein unfolding, detected by changes in protein fluorescence, but FXYD proteins do not protect. Thus, general protein denaturation is not the cause of thermally mediated or detergent-mediated inactivation. By contrast, the experiments show that displacement of specifically bound phosphatidylserine is the primary cause of thermally mediated or detergent-mediated inactivation, and FXYD proteins stabilize phosphatidylserine-Na,K-ATPase interactions. Phosphatidylserine probably binds near trans-membrane segments M9 of the α subunit and the FXYD protein, which are in proximity. FXYD1, FXYD2, and FXYD4 co-expressed in HeLa cells with rat α1 protect strongly against thermal inactivation. Stabilization of Na,K-ATPase by three FXYD proteins in a mammalian cell membrane, as well the purified recombinant Na,K-ATPase, suggests that stabilization is a general property of FXYD proteins, consistent with a significant biological function.

Abstract
Phospholemman (PLM) is a single-span transmembrane protein belonging to the FXYD family of proteins. PLM (or FXYD1) regulates the Na,K-ATPase (NKA) ion pump by altering its affinity for K(+) and Na(+) and by reducing its hydrolytic activity. Structural studies of PLM in anionic detergent micelles have suggested that the cytoplasmic domain, which alone can regulate NKA, forms a partial helix which is stabilized by interactions with the charged membrane surface. This work examines the membrane affinity and regulatory function of a 35-amino acid peptide (PLM(38-72)) representing the PLM cytoplasmic domain. Isothermal titration calorimetry and solid-state NMR measurements confirm that PLM(38-72) associates strongly with highly anionic phospholipid membranes, but the association is weakened substantially when the negative surface charge is reduced to a more physiologically relevant environment. Membrane interactions are also weakened when the peptide is phosphorylated at S68, one of the substrate sites for protein kinases. PLM(38-72) also lowers the maximal velocity of ATP hydrolysis (V(max)) by NKA, and phosphorylation of the peptide at S68 gives rise to a partial recovery of V(max). These results suggest that the PLM cytoplasmic domain populates NKA-associated and membrane-associated states in dynamic equilibrium and that phosphorylation may alter the position of the equilibrium. Interestingly, peptides representing the cytoplasmic domains of two other FXYD proteins, Mat-8 (FXYD3) and CHIF (FXYD4), have little or no interaction with highly anionic phospholipid membranes and have no effect on NKA function. This suggests that the functional and physical properties of PLM are not conserved across the entire FXYD family.

Abstract
The Na+-K+-ATPase is the primary electrogenic component driving transepithelial ion transport in the teleost gill; thus regulation of its level of activity is of critical importance for osmotic homeostasis. In the present study, we examined the dynamics of the gill-specific FXYD-11 protein, a putative regulatory subunit of the pump, in Atlantic salmon during seawater (SW) acclimation, smoltification, and treatment with cortisol, growth hormone, and prolactin. Dual-labeling immunohistochemistry showed that branchial FXYD-11 is localized in Na+-K+-ATPase immunoreactive cells, and coimmunoprecipitation experiments confirmed a direct association between FXYD-11 and the Na+-K+-ATPase α-subunit. Transfer of freshwater (FW)-acclimated salmon to SW induced a parallel increase in total α-subunit and FXYD-11 protein expression. A similar concurrent increase was seen during smoltification in FW. In FW fish, cortisol induced an increase in both α-subunit and FXYD-11 abundance, and growth hormone further stimulated FXYD-11 levels. In SW fish, prolactin induced a decrease in FXYD-11 and α-subunit protein levels. In vitro cortisol (18 h, 10 μg/ml) stimulated FXYD-11, but not FXYD-9, mRNA levels in gills from FW and SW salmon. The data show that Na+-K+-ATPase expressed in branchial mitochondrion-rich cells is accompanied by FXYD-11, and that regulation of the two proteins is highly coordinated. The demonstrated association of FXYD-11 and α-subunit strengthens our hypothesis that FXYD-11 has a role in modulating the pump's kinetic properties. The presence of putative phosphorylation sites on the intracellular domain of FXYD-11 suggests the possibility that this protein also may transmit external signals that regulate Na+-K+-ATPase activity.

Abstract
The contribution of the two corticosteroid (mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid) receptor (MR and GR) pathways to the function and regeneration of the sciatic nerve was investigated. We found that the corticosterone-inactivating enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (HSD2) was up-regulated 7 days after lesion in freeze-injured nerve. The maintenance of a low intracellular level of corticosterone by HSD2 activity in the regenerating nerve is concordant with the improvement of nervous function in injured animals (as measured by walking ability) after treatment by the GR antagonist mifepristone and with the reduction in GR participation in accumulation of the mRNA for numerous endogenous genes (from the renin-angiotensin system and other classical mineralocorticoid-responsive genes), in the same animals. Furthermore, using the MR antagonist spironolactone, we demonstrated that MR plays an active role in the function of the intact sciatic nerve: MR is required for walking ability and participates in the control of the accumulation of the mRNA for several endogenous genes. However, after injury, changes in gene expression cannot be fully explained by changes in MR/GR activity, due to an HSD2 effect, and other signalling pathway(s) induced by the lesion likely combine with the effect of the corticosteroid receptors.

Abstract
FXYD proteins, small single-transmembrane proteins, have been proposed to be auxiliary regulatory subunits of Na+–K+-ATPase and have recently been implied in ion osmoregulation of teleost fish. In freshwater (FW) fish, numerous ions are actively taken up through mitochondrion-rich cells (MRCs) of the gill and skin epithelia, using the Na+ electrochemical gradient generated by Na+–K+-ATPase. In the present study, to understand the molecular mechanism for the regulation of Na+–K+-ATPase in MRCs of FW fish, we sought to identify FXYD proteins expressed in MRCs of zebrafish. Reverse-transcriptase PCR studies of adult zebrafish tissues revealed that, out of eight fxyd genes found in zebrafish database, only zebrafish fxyd11 (zfxyd11) mRNA exhibited a gill-specific expression. Double immunofluorescence staining showed that zFxyd11 is abundantly expressed in MRCs rich in Na+–K+-ATPase (NaK-MRCs) but not in those rich in vacuolar-type H+-transporting ATPase. An in situ proximity ligation assay demonstrated its close association with Na+–K+-ATPase in NaK-MRCs. The zfxyd11 mRNA expression was detectable at 1 day postfertilization, and its expression levels in the whole larvae and adult gills were regulated in response to changes in environmental ionic concentrations. Furthermore, knockdown of zFxyd11 resulted in a significant increase in the number of Na+–K+-ATPase–positive cells in the larval skin. These results suggest that zFxyd11 may regulate the transport ability of NaK-MRCs by modulating Na+–K+-ATPase activity, and may be involved in the regulation of body fluid and electrolyte homeostasis.

Abstract
Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE), a technique that allows for the simultaneous detection of expression levels of the entire genome without a priori knowledge of gene sequences, was used to examine the transcriptional expression pattern of the Tg2576 mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Pairwise comparison between the Tg2576 and nontransgenic SAGE libraries identified a number of differentially expressed genes in the Tg2576 SAGE library, some of which were not previously revealed by the microarray studies. Real-time PCR was used to validate a panel of genes selected from the SAGE analysis in the Tg2576 mouse brain, as well as the hippocampus and temporal cortex of sporadic AD and normal age-matched controls. NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) 1 alpha subcomplex 5 (NDUFA5) and FXYD domain-containing ion transport regulator 6 (FXYD6) were found to be significantly decreased in the Tg2576 mouse brain and AD hippocampus. PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1), phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein (PEBP), crystalline mu (CRYM), and neurogranin (NRGN) were significantly decreased in AD tissues. The gene ontologies represented in the Tg2576 data were statistically analyzed and demonstrated a significant under-representation of genes involved with G-protein-coupled receptor signaling and odorant binding, while genes significantly over-represented were focused on cellular communication and cellular physiological processes. The novel approach of profiling the Tg2576 mouse brain using SAGE has identified different genes that could subsequently be examined for their potential as peripheral diagnostic and prognostic markers for Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Although Na+,K+-ATPase-mediated K+ uptake into astrocytes plays a major role in re-establishing resting extracellular K+ following neuronal excitation little information is available about astrocytic Na+,K+-ATPase function, let alone mechanisms returning K+ to neurons. The catalytic units of the Na+,K+-ATPase are the astrocyte-specific α2, the neuron-specific α3 and the ubiquitously expressed α1. In the present work, Bmax and KD values for α1, α2 and α3 subunits were computed in cultured cerebro-cortical mouse astrocytes and cerebellar granule neurons by non-linear regression as high-affinity (α2, α3) and low-affinity (α1) [3H]ouabain binding sites, which stoichiometrically equal transporter sites. Cellular expression was also determined of the brain- and α1-β1 isoform-specific FDYX7, regulating Na+,K+-ATPase efficiency and K+-sensitivity. From ouabain-sensitive K+ uptake rates published by ourselves (Walz and Hertz, 1982) or others (Atterwill et al., 1985), Na+,K+-ATPase turnover was determined. Subunits α2 and α3 showed Bmax of 15-30 pmol/mg protein, with maximum turnover rates of 70-80/s. Bmax of the α1 subunit was low in neurons but very high in astrocytes (645 pmol/mg protein), where turnover rate was slow, reflecting expression of selectively expressed FXYD7, and binding was increased by K+. The role of these characteristics for K+ homeostasis are discussed.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant renal hypomagnesemia (OMIM 154020), associated with hypocalciuria, has been linked to a 121G to A mutation in the FXYD2 gene. To gain insight into the molecular mechanisms linking this mutation to the clinical phenotype, we studied isolated proximal tubular cells from urine of a patient and a healthy subject. Cells were immortalized and used to assess the effects of hypertonicity-induced overexpression of FXYD2 on amount, activity and apparent affinities for Na+, K+ and ATP of Na,K-ATPase. Both cell lines expressed mRNA for FXYD2a and FXYD2b, and patient cells contained both the wild-type and mutated codons. FXYD2 protein expression was lower in patient cells and could be increased in both cell lines upon culturing in hyperosmotic medium but to a lesser extent in patient cells. Similarly, hyperosmotic culturing increased Na,K-ATPase protein expression and ATP hydrolyzing activity but, again, to a lesser extent in patient cells. Apparent affinities of Na,K-ATPase for Na+, K+ and ATP did not differ between patient and control cells or after hyperosmotic induction. We conclude that human proximal tubular cells respond to a hyperosmotic challenge with an increase in FXYD2 and Na,K-ATPase protein expression, though to a smaller absolute extent in patient cells.

Abstract
FXYD proteins have been proposed to function as regulators of Na, K-ATPase function by lowering affinities of the system for potassium and sodium. However, their distribution in normal human tissues has not been studied. We have therefore used immunohistochemistry and semi-quantitative histomorphometric analysis to determine the relative expression at the protein level and distribution of FXYD1 (phospholemman) and FXYD2 (gamma subunit of Na, K-ATPase) in human Tissue MicroArrays (TMAs). Expression of FXYD1 was abundant in heart, kidney, placenta, skeletal muscle, gastric and anal mucosa, small intestine and colon. Lower FXYD1 expression was detected in uterine, intestinal and bladder smooth muscle, choroid plexus, liver, gallbladder, spleen, breast, prostate and epididymis. The tissue distribution of FXYD2 was less extensive compared to that of FXYD1. There was an abundant expression in kidney and choroid plexus and moderate expression in placenta, amniotic membranes, breast epithelium, salivary glands, pancreas and uterine endometrium. Weaker FXYD2 expression was detected in the adrenal medulla, liver, gallbladder, bladder and pancreas. The common denominator in the distribution of FXYD1 and FXYD2 was expression in highly active transport epithelia of the kidney, choroid plexus, placenta and salivary glands. This study reveals, in human tissues, the specific expression of FXYD proteins, which may associate with Na, K-ATPase in selected cell types and modulate its catalytic properties.

Abstract
Neuronal activity largely depends on two key components on the membrane: the Na,K-ATPase (NKA) that maintains the ion gradients and sets the foundation of excitability, and the ionotropic glutamatergic AMPA receptors (AMPARs) through which sodium influx forms the driving force for excitation. Because the frequent sodium transients from glutamate receptor activity need to be efficiently extruded, a functional coupling between NKA and AMPARs should be a necessary cellular device for synapse physiology. We show that NKA is enriched at synapses and associates with AMPARs. NKA dysfunction induces a rapid reduction in AMPAR cell-surface expression as well as total protein abundance, leading to a long-lasting depression in synaptic transmission. AMPAR proteolysis requires sodium influx, proteasomal activity and receptor internalization. These data elucidate a novel mechanism by which NKA regulates AMPAR turnover and thereby synaptic strength and brain function.

Abstract
It has been shown that the onset of a central nervous system lesion in the rat results in morphological modifications of the peripheral nerves and the underlying neuromuscular junctions, without suggesting a functional correlation between recuperation of motor functions and sublesional metabolic activity. Using double lesion localization (T2 and T6) in a spinal rat model has nevertheless pointed out the functional importance of the T2-T6 metameric interval in the reinnervation phenomena observed, raising the problem of spinal generation in locomotor movements. Motivated by electrophysiological data that have given support to the concept of an anatomic substrate for these intramedullary rhythm generators, we attempted to establish a relation between the functional recuperation possible after a central nervous system lesion and modifications within the metabolism of the underlying neuromuscular system. We notably focused on Na/K-ATPase, whose crucial role in neuromuscular transmission has been evidenced. This paper proposes to demonstrate the involvement in the mechanisms of metabolic regulation after trans-synaptic denervation, i.e., a central nervous system lesion. Our study includes the Na/K-ATPase activity analysis on the sublesional peripheral nerve and the combined analysis of the expression of different RNA messengers within the corresponding muscle groups. We have also investigated the spatiotemporal organization of the compensating processes of the nerves underlying the lesion using magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
