General Information
Epithelial sodium channels are amiloride-sensitive members of the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel (Deg/ENaC) superfamily of ion channels. Members of this superfamily of ion channels share organizational similarity in that they all possess two short intracellular amino and carboxyl termini, two short membrane-spanning segments, and a large extracellular loop domain with a conserved cysteine-rich region. There are 3 homologous isoforms of the EnaC (α, β and γ) protein. ENaC in the kidney, lung, and colon plays an essential role in transepithelial Na+ and fluid balance. ENaC also mediates aldosterone-dependent (Prod.No. ALX-804-099) sodium reabsorption in the distal nephron of the kidney, thus regulating blood pressure. ENaC is thought to be regulated, in part, through association with the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (Prod.No. ALX-804-214) chloride ion channel. Gain-of-function mutations in β- or γ-ENaC can cause severe arterial hypertension (Liddle’s syndrome) and loss-of-function mutations in α- or β-ENaC pseudohypoaldosteronism (PHA-1).

Product Description
Inhibitor of intracellular protein transport and protein secretion, interfering with trafficking in the trans-Golgi network, leading to the accumulation of cycling proteins in ERGIC clusters. Blocks ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) in an inactive GDP-bound conformation and thereby prevents binding of COPI coats to ERGIC and Golgi membranes. Upon brefeldin A treatment the Golgi rapidly tubulates and fuses with the ER by an energy-, temperature-, and microtubule-dependent process. In contrast, the drug has little effect on the ERGIC, which keeps its identity, although the ERGIC clusters become larger and more uniformly distributed in the cytoplasm of the cells. Inhibits intracellular collagen degradation. Also inhibits apical Na+ channels in epithelia. Induces apoptosis.
