Genetic Variants of TPCN2 Associated with Type 2 Diabetes Risk in the Chinese Population [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The aim of this study was to determine whether TPCN2 genetic variants are associated with type 2 diabetes and to elucidate which variants in TPCN2 confer diabetes susceptibility in the Chinese population.The sample population included 384 patients with ...

The two-pore channel TPCN2 mediates NAADP-dependent Ca2+-release from lysosomal stores [PDF]

open access: yesPflugers Archiv European Journal of Physiology, 2009
Second messenger-induced Ca(2+)-release from intracellular stores plays a key role in a multitude of physiological processes. In addition to 1,4,5-inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)), Ca(2+), and cyclic ADP ribose (cADPR) that trigger Ca(2+)-release from the endoplasmatic reticulum (ER), nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) has been ...

Study of the role of the new endolysosomal receptors two pore channels (TPCN1 and TPCN2) in human, mouse and rat heart [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2013
Purpose: Mammalian two-pore channel proteins (TPCN1, TPCN2) are recently identified as ion channels in intracellular endosomes and lysosomes whose role at cardiac level is completely unknown. Our aim was to study the cardiac effect of knocking out TPCN1 in mice as well as studying the regulation of expression of cardiac TPCN1 and TPCN2 by ...

Characterization of Two-pore Channel 2 (TPCN2)-mediated Ca2+ Currents in Isolated Lysosomes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
Two-pore channels (TPCNs) have been proposed to form lysosomal Ca(2+) release channels that are activated by nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate. Here, we employ a glass chip-based method to record for the first time nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate -dependent currents through a two-pore channel (TPCN2) from intact lysosomes.

A Role for Two-Pore Channel Type 2 (TPC2)-Mediated Regulation of Membrane Contact Sites During Zebrafish Notochord Biogenesis?

open access: yesContact (Thousand Oaks (Ventura County, Calif )), 2023
We have previously shown that in the developing trunk of zebrafish embryos, two-pore channel type 2 (TPC2)-mediated Ca 2+ release from endolysosomes plays a role in the formation of the skeletal slow muscle.

Deficiency of two-pore segment channel 2 contributes to systemic lupus erythematosus via regulation of apoptosis and cell cycle

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2022
. Background:. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease, and the mechanism of SLE is yet to be fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to explore the role of two-pore segment channel 2 (TPCN2) in SLE pathogenesis.

The Three Two-Pore Channel Subtypes from Rabbit Exhibit Distinct Sensitivity to Phosphoinositides, Voltage, and Extracytosolic pH

open access: yesCells, 2022
Two pore channels (TPCs) are implicated in vesicle trafficking, virus infection, and autophagy regulation. As Na+- or Ca2+-permeable channels, TPCs have been reported to be activated by NAADP, PI(3,5)P2, and/or high voltage.

Electrophysiology of Endolysosomal Two-Pore Channels: A Current Account

open access: yesCells, 2022
Two-pore channels TPC1 and TPC2 are ubiquitously expressed pathophysiologically relevant proteins that reside on endolysosomal vesicles. Here, we review the electrophysiology of these channels.

A patient with TPCN2-related hypopigmentation and ocular phenotype

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics
Abstract Pigmentation is orchestrated by hundreds of genes involved in cellular functions going from early developmental fate of pigment cells to melanin synthesis. The Two Pore Channel 2 (TPC2) a Ca2+ and Na+ channel acidifies melanosomal pH and thus inhibits pigmentation.

Two-pore channel regulators - Who is in control?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
Two-pore channels (TPCs) are adenine nucleotide and phosphoinositide regulated cation channels. NAADP activates and ATP blocks TPCs, while the endolysosomal phosphoinositide PI(3,5)P2 activates TPCs.
