NASHVILLE, Tennessee, Feb. 21 [TNSmedicalresearch] -- Vanderbilt University issued the following news:
The cotransporter NKCC1 moves sodium, potassium and chloride ions across the cell membrane and has roles regulating cell volume, epithelial transport and neuronal excitability.
Eric Delpire, PhD, and colleagues recently discovered that a patient suffering from multiorgan failure had a mutation in the gene encoding NKCC1. Increased mitochondrial DNA in tissue biopsies s . . .
