    Biochim Biophys Acta 1734:152-68. 2005
    ..We speculate that interactions between the NH2- and COOH-termini are required for membrane binding, and aggregation and fusion properties of annexin A7...
  2. ncbi Synexin and GTP increase surfactant secretion in permeabilized alveolar type II cells
    A Chander
    Division of Neonatology, Department of Pediatrics, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107, USA
    Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 280:L991-8. 2001
    ..Thus our results support a direct role for synexin in surfactant secretion. Our study also suggests that membrane fusion during surfactant secretion may be mediated by two independent mechanisms...

    Avinash Chander
    Department of Pediatrics, Division of Neonatology, State University of New York, Stony Brook, NY 11794 8111, USA
    Cell Calcium 33:11-7. 2003
    ..Collectively, our findings suggest that these two agents modify membrane proteins to regulate anx a7 binding, which may facilitate increased membrane fusion activity during stimulation of surfactant secretion...
