“…Astrocytic NBCe1 activity is shown to be regulated by several stimuli, among them acute extracellular pH changes, metabolic alkalosis, growth factors, and 4‐aminopyridine (4AP; Khakipoor et al, 2017; Salameh, Ruffin, & Boron, 2014; Schrödl‐Häußel, Theparambil, Deitmer, & Roussa, 2015; Theparambil et al, 2015, 2017). At the molecular level, NBCe1 associated cellular responses within or outside the CNS can be mediated either through direct phosphorylation (J. H. Hong et al, 2013; Khakipoor et al, 2019; Vachel et al, 2018; Yang et al, 2011) or/and by activation of several signaling pathways, such as mTOR, JNK, and Src/ERK signaling (Khakipoor et al, 2019; Namkoong et al, 2015; Schrödl‐Häußel et al, 2015).…”
