Knockdown of sorting nexin proteins reduces ENaC surface levels in polarized epithelia, indicating their role in ENaC trafficking.

Knockdown of sorting nexin proteins decreased ENaC surface population, reducing sodium absorption.
Using biotinylation, the impact of SNX protein knockdown on ENaC localization was quantitatively assessed.
Co-immunoprecipitation revealed direct interactions between ENaC and SNX proteins in epithelial cell lines.
Findings highlight the importance of sorting nexins in regulating ENaC in the renal epithelia.

Scott et al. (2025) studied this question.
