"Overall, Nav1.6 isoforms appear to be promising as diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets in the treatment of clinical metastatic tumors, but further research is required to determine their usefulness in clinical practice.Through an extensive literature review, it was found that Cheng et al (31) indicated that TNF-α upregulated Nav1.6 currents in retinal cells; Ding et al (38) also found that the TNF-α/STAT3 signalling pathway upregulated Nav1.6 expression in the dorsal root ganglion."

"In the present study, it was demonstrated that TNF-α promotes the production of Nav1.6 protein and mRNA, and si-Nav1.6 could partially block the induction of TNF-α in glioma, suggesting that TNF-α is associated with malignant progression of tumors in glioma.Subsequently, a number of drugs that have potential therapeutic value for gliomas were screened."
"TNF-α increases Na(+) currents by accelerating the channel activation as well as increasing the expression of VGSCs in a mechanism dependent upon NF-κB and p38 MAPK signal pathways in CNS neurons. TNF-α increased Na(+) currents by accelerating the activation of VGSCs. The threshold for action potential (AP) was decreased and firing rate were increased. VGSCs were up-regulated at both the mRNA and protein levels."

"Considering the TNF-α-mediated regulation of the p-STAT3 activity, these studies suggested an enhanced interaction between p-STAT3 and p300, possibly mediated by TNF-α, in the Scn8a promoter region, which increased the histone H4 acetylation and facilitated the Nav1.6 expression in the rodents with L5-VRT."
