## Abstract Adequate regulation of endolymphatic pH is essential for maintaining inner ear function. The Na^+^–H^+^ exchanger (NHE) is a major determinant of intracellular pH (pH~i~), and facilitates Na^+^ and fluid absorption in various epithelia. We determined the functional and molecular express

Proteinuria in diabetic nephropathy has been correlated with reduction in heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) content of the glomerular basement membrane. We have previously shown that the underlying mechanism probably involves reduction in the synthesis by glomerular epithelial cells. In this study
One conjugative pathway for the inactivation of endogenous and exogenous hydroxylated aromatic compounds is catalyzed by phenol (aryl) sulfotransferases (PSTs), which esterify phenolic acceptors with sulfate. The tracheobronchial epithelium is commonly exposed to phenolic drugs and pollutants, and m
## Abstract Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) have been shown to be involved in various retinal diseases. We have studied the role of inflammatory cytokines on the expression and secretion of TGF‐β in human RPE cells (HRPE). Confluent cultures of HRPE derived
## Abstract We previously demonstrated that 4‐oxoretinol (4‐oxo‐ROL) activated retinoic acid receptors (RARs) in F9 stem cells. We showed that 4‐oxo‐ROL inhibited the proliferation of normal human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs). To understand the mechanisms by which 4‐oxo‐ROL regulates HMEC growt
