Summary: Enables calcium:sodium antiporter activity. Involved in several processes, including learning or memory; monoatomic cation transmembrane transport; and regulation of short-term neuronal synaptic plasticity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; regulation of action potential firing pattern; and response to ischemia. Located in axon terminus; plasma membrane; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in brain; cerebral cortex; cerebral cortex mantle layer; embryo; and olfactory cortex mantle layer. Orthologous to human SLC8A2 (solute carrier family 8 member A2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Sodium-Calcium Exchanger 2: A Pivotal Role in Oxaliplatin Induced Peripheral Neurotoxicity and Axonal Damage?
Title: Sodium-Calcium Exchanger 2: A Pivotal Role in Oxaliplatin Induced Peripheral Neurotoxicity and Axonal Damage?
NCX2 and NCX3 protein and mRNA levels are relatively reduced in hippocampal CA1 of APP23 and APP-KI mice. Likewise, NCX2(+/-) or NCX3(+/-) mice exhibited impaired hippocampal LTP and memory-related behaviors. Moreover, relative to controls, calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) autophosphorylation significantly decreased in NCX2(+/-) mouse hippocampus but increased in hippocampus of NCX3(+/-) mice.
Title: Reduced expression of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers is associated with cognitive deficits seen in Alzheimer's disease model mice.
NCX2 (and NCX1) are expressed in neurons that regulate the motility of the gastric fundus.
Title: Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchanger-heterozygote knockout mice display increased relaxation in gastric fundus and accelerated gastric transit in vivo.

Title: Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger contributes to stool transport in mice with experimental diarrhea.
NCX1 and NCX2 play important roles in ileal motility and suggest that NCX1 and NCX2 regulate the motility in the ileum by controlling the sensitivity of smooth muscles to ACh and SP.

functional inhibition of NCX2 initially causes natriuresis, and further inhibition of NCX2 produces hypercalciuria, suggesting that the functional significance of NCX2 lies in Na(+) and Ca(2+) reabsorption of the kidney.
Title: Genetic knockout and pharmacologic inhibition of NCX2 cause natriuresis and hypercalciuria.
In this study, we demonstrate that NCX2 regulates colonic motility by altering acetylcholine release onto the myenteric neurons of the distal colon.
Title: Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchanger 2-heterozygote knockout mice display decreased acetylcholine release and altered colonic motility in vivo.
Functional studies, as well as mRNA and protein expression analyses, revealed that NCX1 and NCX3, but not NCX2, were divergently modulated during OPC differentiation into oligodendrocyte.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
