Structure of the TRPV1 ion channel determined by electron cryo-microscopy

open access: yesNature, 2013
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are sensors for a wide range of cellular and environmental signals, but elucidating how these channels respond to physical and chemical stimuli has been hampered by a lack of detailed structural information ...

Structure of the TRPA1 ion channel suggests regulatory mechanisms

open access: yesNature, 2015
The TRPA1 ion channel (also known as the wasabi receptor) is a detector of noxious chemical agents encountered in our environment or produced endogenously during tissue injury or drug metabolism. These include a broad class of electrophiles that activate

TRP (transient receptor potential) ion channel family: structures, biological functions and therapeutic interventions for diseases

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are sensors for a variety of cellular and environmental signals. Mammals express a total of 28 different TRP channel proteins, which can be divided into seven subfamilies based on amino acid sequence homology ...

Ion Channel Degeneracy, Variability, and Covariation in Neuron and Circuit Resilience.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Neuroscience, 2021
The large number of ion channels found in all nervous systems poses fundamental questions concerning how the characteristic intrinsic properties of single neurons are determined by the specific subsets of channels they express.

Continuous glucose monitoring during pregnancy in healthy mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
During pregnancy, metabolic adaptations occur to maintain the balance between maternal and foetal growth, including increased insulin secretion and decreased insulin sensitivity. When the body fails to adjust, gestational diabetes mellitus develops.
