Small-molecule inhibition of aging-associated chromosomal instability delays cellular senescence.

abstract：:A previously uncharacterized putative ion channel, NALCN (sodium leak channel, non-selective), has been recently shown to be responsible for the tetrodotoxin (TTX)-resistant sodium leak current implicated in the regulation of neuronal excitability. Here, we show that NALCN encodes a current that is activated by M3 mus...

Mutation in either mammalian tubby or its homologue in Caenorhabditis elegans, tub-1, results in increased fat storage. Previously, we have shown that TUB-1 interacts with a new Rab GTPase-activating protein, RBG-3, for the regulation of fat sto...
