2.A.19.3.5
Sodium/calcium exchanger 2 (Na+/Ca2+-exchange protein 2; NCX2; SLC8A2) of 921 aas and 11 TMSs.  Functional inhibition of NCX2 initially causes natriuresis, and further inhibition produces hypercalciuria, suggesting that the functional significance of NCX2 lies in Na+ and Ca+ reabsorption in the kidney (Gotoh et al. 2015).  However NCX1-3 are present in the brain where they influence stroke theraputic strategies in a NCX subtype-specific fashion (Shenoda 2015). NCX1 and NCX2 play important roles in the motility of the gastric fundus, ileum and distal colon, but only NCX2 plays a role in the development of diarrhea (Nishiyama et al. 2016).
