Background: Anoctamin-1 (ANO1) plays a pivotal role in cancer progression. A meta-analysis was conducted to assess the potential prognostic role of ANO1 in cancers.
Methods: A total of 1760 patients from 7 eligible studies were included into the analysis. Pooled hazard ratios or odds ratios were extracted and calculated with a random-effects model, and analyses of heterogeneity bias were conducted.
Results: Our results showed that over expression of ANO1 was significantly correlated with poor overall survival in all cancers (HR = 1.52; 95% CI: 1.19-1.92; P = .0006). Subgroup analysis indicated that there was a significant association between over expression of ANO1 and poor prognosis breast cancer (HR = 3.24; 95% CI: 1.74-6.04), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HR = 1.14; 95% CI: 1.00-1.30), esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (HR = 1.93; 95% CI: 1.07-3.50), gastric cancer (HR = 1.62; 95% CI: 1.12-2.34) and colorectal cancer (HR = 1.38; 95% CI: 1.03-1.85). In addition, over expression of ANO1 was not associated with TNM stage, histological grade, lymph node metastasis, tumor size, age and gender. However, ANO1 was significantly associated with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, but not associated with progesterone receptor or estrogen receptor in breast cancer.
Conclusions: Our results indicate that ANO1 can be a predictive factor for prognosis of cancer.

In euryhaline teleosts, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in seawater (SW)-type chloride cells facilitates apical Cl secretion for SW adaptation, while alternative Cl excretion pathways remain understudied. This study investigates the role of the calcium-activated chloride channel, Anoctamin 1 (ANO1), in the gills of the euryhaline Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) under hyperosmolality and cortisol (CORT) influence. Acclimation to artificial SW, NaCl, mannitol, or glucose significantly upregulated ANO1 and CFTR mRNA expression in gills, unlike urea treatment.

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) and PDGFRα cells regulate smooth muscle motility in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, yet their function in the esophagus remains unknown. The mouse esophagus has been described as primarily skeletal muscle; however, ICC have been identified in this region. This study characterizes the distribution of skeletal and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and their spatial relationship to ICC, PDGFRα cells, and intramuscular motor neurons in the mouse esophagus.

Article Synopsis
- Females with endometriosis show altered peristaltic and ciliary functions, prompting a study on rhesus macaques to assess the role of specific proteins related to these functions.
- The research focused on adenylate kinase 7 (AK7), forkhead protein box J1 (FOXJ1), and Anoctamin 1 (ANO1), with findings indicating that ANO1 expression is significantly reduced in both affected monkeys and ampullary segments treated with peritoneal fluid from endometriosis cases.
- The study suggests that lower levels of ANO1 may contribute to a particular form of infertility linked to endometriosis, emphasizing its potential importance in oviduct function.

The chloride channel transmembrane protein 16A (TMEM16A) possesses a calcium-activated property linked to tumor-promoting malignant phenotype and electrophysiological stability. Numerous studies have shown that TMEM16A exhibits aberrant amplification in various squamous cell carcinomas such as esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and is correlated with unfavorable outcomes of ESCC patients. Therefore, TMEM16A is considered as a promising therapeutic target for ESCC.

Background: Gallbladder mucocele (GBM) is a common disease in the canine gallbladder. Although the pathogenesis of GBM remains unclear, we recently reported that the excessive accumulation of mucin in the gallbladder is not a result of overproduction by gallbladder epithelial cells (GBECs).
Hypothesis/objectives: Changes in the function of GBECs other than the production of mucin are associated with the pathogenesis of GBM.
