| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently, LRRC8A was reported to be the essential component of human volume-sensitive outwardly rectifying anion channel (VSOR). In this study, we have elucidated that LRRC8A is also essentially involved in mouse VSOR activity, whereas it is not involved in the activities of 4 other types of anion channels activated by acid, Ca2+, patch excision or cAMP, respectively. Also, we have shown that deficiency of VSOR activity in KCP-4 cells is not due to insufficient expression of LRRC8A/B/C/D/E, suggesting an involvement of some other molecule(s) in VSOR activity.
