TABLE 1.
The inflammatory cells involved in ASIC1a.
| Inflammatory cells type | Expression and major physiological function | References |
|---|---|---|
| Macrophages | Bone marrow derived macrophages express ASIC1, and ASIC1 contribute to increased endocytosis of FITC-dextran and upregulated expression of CD80, CD86, and MHC-II in BMMs stimulated by acidosis | Kong et al. (2013) |
| Microglia | ASIC1 in microglia is increased upon stimulation with LPS. Blocking of ASIC1a reduced the expression of inflammatory cytokines | Yu et al. (2015) |
| Dendritic cells | Dendritic cells express ASICs, acidosis upregulated the expression of CD11c, MHC class II, CD80, and CD86 and enhanced the Ag-presenting ability of dendritic cells via ASICs | Tong et al. (2011) |
| T cells | T cells show ASIC1 expression at the protein level, ASIC1 has no significant role in T cell function in EAE | Friese et al. (2007) |
| B cells | Asic1 mRNA is detected in B cells | Friese et al. (2007) |
| Eosinophils | ||
| Neutrophils | ASIC1a is detected in these five inflammatory cells, indicating the key roles of ASIC1a in the infiltration and activation of these inflammatory cells | Tang et al. (2021) |
| Mast cells | ||
| Plasma cells | ||
| Th cells |
