The δ subunit of epithelial sodium channel in humans-a potential player in vascular physiology.

Abstract excerpt

Vascular epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) made up of canonical α, β, and γ subunits have attracted more attention recently owing to their physiological role in vascular health and disease. A fourth subunit, δ-ENaC, is expressed in various mammalian species, except mice and rats, which are common animal models for cardiovascular research. Accordingly, δ-ENaC is the least understood subunit. However, the recent...
