Abstract

Transmembrane cation channels include those for calcium, copper and iron ion transport. Each channel has physiological significance, and all have been associated with disease. However, the comparative study of transcriptional‑translational levels in canine organs has not been previously reported. In the present study, organ‑specific expression of calcium channels, including sodium/potassium/calcium exchanger 3 (NCKX3) and transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 2 (TRPV2), copper channels, including high affinity copper uptake protein 1 (CTR1) and copper‑transporting ATPase 1 (ATP7A), and iron channels, including iron‑regulated transporter 1 (IREG1) and hephaestin (HEPH) proteins and their mRNAs were examined in the canine duodenum, kidney, spleen and liver. NCKX3 protein expression was highest in the kidney, moderate in the duodenum, and lowest in the spleen and liver, whereas TRPV2 protein was highly expressed in the kidney, duodenum and liver, and was low in the spleen. The CTR1 protein expression level was highest in the liver, followed (in descending order) by the duodenum, kidney and spleen. The ATP7A protein expression level was highest in the duodenum and lowest in the spleen. The IREG1 protein expression level was highest in the liver, followed (in descending order) by the kidney, duodenum and spleen. The HEPH protein level was high in liver, moderate in the duodenum and kidney, and low in the spleen. The results of the immunohistochemistry analysis demonstrated ion channel protein localizations. These results suggested that cation channel proteins are differentially expressed among canine organs, and they may be involved in organ‑specific functions associated with the maintenance of physiological homeostasis.
