Indeed, activation of ASICs in neurons of the asics nimbus CNS and PNS induces membrane depolarization and generation of action potentials (Figure 3 A) (Deval et al. , 2003 ; Vukicevic and Kellenberger, 2004 ; Poirot et al. , 2006 ). ASIC1a shows, in addition to its Na permeability, a small permeability for Ca 2 that is probably important for some of its roles (Waldmann et al. , 1997b ; Bassler et al. , 2001 ; Boillat et al. , 2014 ).Functional properties of ASIC. (A) Action potential induction by extracellular acidification to pH 6.4, mediated by ASICs, measured by whole cell current clamp from a mouse hippocampal neuron. (B) A pH 5 induced current recorded in whole cell voltage clamp to "60 mV from a Chinese hamster ovary cell stably transfected with ASIC1a. (C) The pH dependence of steady state desensitization and of activation of ASIC1a.

There is also strong evidence for a role of sensory neuron ASICs in pain sensation. ASICs belong to the same ion channel family as the C. elegans DEGs that form the channel parts of mechanotransduction complexes. Several ASIC asics kayano 23 isoforms are expressed in mechanosensory structures and may have similar functions as DEGs. ASIC knockout mice show defects in mechanosensation in many different tissues, indicating that ASIC mechanosensation is involved in touch and pain sensation, baroreceptor function, blood volume control, digestive functions and possibly hearing (reviewed in Chen and Wong, 2013 ; Omerbasic et al. , 2015 ).Currently, ASIC inhibition is asics running shoes not used clinically. However, pharmacological inhibition of ASICs is expected to be beneficial in several human disorders. ASIC inhibitors may be used as anxiolytic and analgesic drugs, and to limit neurodegeneration after ischaemic stroke. Several ASIC inhibitors are currently in preclinical trials and clinical phase I trials, mostly in the context of pain ( s.gov ).

The authors showed that this activation is due to a shift in the pH dependence of activation. Administration of this combination of lipids induced pain that was prevented by ASIC3 inhibitors in rats and reduced in ASIC3 knockout mice.As mentioned above, ASIC inhibition is currently not used clinically. The present compounds except for amiloride, which is clinically used as ENaC inhibitor (IC 50 = 100 200 nM), asics gel nimbus have been characterized in cell systems and in part also in animal models. An interesting recent review of ASIC pharmacology is provided by Baron and Lingueglia ( 2015 ). Amiloride has a low potency (EC 50 of 10 100 ¼M) and selectivity on ASIC peak currents and does not inhibit the sustained ASIC currents. Amiloride binds into the pore of ENaC and ASICs (Schild et al. , 1997 ; Adams et al. , 1999 ; Alijevic and Kellenberger, 2012 ).

The site of action of other small molecule inhibitors on ASICs is not known. Amiloride derivatives modified at the five position of the pyrazine ring by hydrophobic groups increased the potency for ASIC3 inhibition by up to 100 fold (Kuduk et al. , 2009 ). Nafamostat mesylate, an anti inflammatory agent and protease inhibitor, contains a guanidinium moiety as do amiloride and GMQ and was shown to inhibit ASIC currents, including the sustained current of ASIC3, with IC 50 values of 2 70 ¼M (Ugawa et al. , 2007 ). The chemically unrelated compound A 317 567 inhibits peak and sustained currents of neuronal and recombinant ASICs with IC 50 values between 2 and 30 ¼M (Dube et al. , 2005 ). The development of A 317 567 derivatives yielded substances with a higher affinity for ASICs, which, however, lost some of their selectivity (IC 50 on ASIC3 of 400 500 nM, and for other neurotransmitter receptors of et al. , 2010 ).

The activity of many neuronal ion channels is pH dependent (Table 3 ), suggesting that the pHe changes during neuronal activity modulate ion channel asics netball shoes function. In general, alkaline pHe favours inward currents, thus enhancing excitability, while acidic pHe depresses excitability in many circumstances (Chesler, 2003 ) and can be considered as negative feedback because it is caused by neuronal stimulation. ASICs in contrast are activated by extracellular acidification. Administration of specific ASIC1a antagonists or disruption of the ASIC1a gene eliminates the majority of the acid induced currents in CNS neurons (Wemmie et al. , 2013 ; Wu et al. , 2013 ). This demonstrates that the ASIC1a homomers and ASIC1a containing heteromers are the [img]http://www.jeanwyllys.com/images/detail/asics gel nimbus-666afg.jpg[/img] principal sensors of rapid extracellular acidification in the brain.
