Other morbid association(s)
TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
tumoral somatic mutation      
in aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs)
tumoral     --over  
is strongly associated with the presence and severity of ESCC (esophageal squamous cell carcinoma)
constitutional somatic mutation      
in ATP1A1 and ATP2B3 lead to aldosterone-producing adenomas and secondary hypertension

  • genetic variations are associated with bipolar disorders suggesting a role of the enzyme in the etiology of the disease (Goldstein 2009)

    targeting ATP1A1 is a novel approach to the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Dahl salt-sensitive (S) rats bearing Dahl salt-resistant wildtype ATP1A1 cDNA exhibited less rat salt-sensitive hypertension, less hypersensitive renal disease, and longer life span compared with Dahl S controls
  • hearts from heterozygous ATP1A1 mice (with a targeted disruption in the gene) are hyponcontractile
