Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Na+/H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1) is an important regulator of intracellular pH (pHi). High pHi is required for cell proliferation and differentiation. Our previous study has proven that the pHi of mesenchymal stem cells is higher than that of normal differentiated cells and similar to tumor cells. NHE1 is highly expressed in both mesenchymal stem cells and tumor cells. Targeted inhibition of NHE1 could...
