Pleiotropic and sex-specific effects of cancer GWAS SNPs on melanoma risk in the population architecture using genomics and epidemiology (PAGE) study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
BackgroundSeveral regions of the genome show pleiotropic associations with multiple cancers. We sought to evaluate whether 181 single-nucleotide polymorphisms previously associated with various cancers in genome-wide association studies were also ...

Ionic Mechanisms of Two-Pore Channel Regulation of Vesicle Trafficking [PDF]

open access: yesCells
The endolysosomal system plays a pivotal role in cellular function. Before reaching lysosomes for degradation, the endocytosed cargoes are sorted at various stages of endosomal trafficking for recycling and/or rerouting.

Targeting the two-pore channel 2 in cancer progression and metastasis

open access: yesExploration of Targeted Anti-tumor Therapy, 2022
The importance of Ca2+ signaling, and particularly Ca2+ channels, in key events of cancer cell function such as proliferation, metastasis, autophagy and angiogenesis, has recently begun to be appreciated.

Identification and Validation of Angiogenesis-Related Gene Expression for Predicting Prognosis in Patients With Ovarian Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Ovarian cancer (OC) is a highly heterogeneous disease with different cellular origins reported; thus, precise prognostic strategies and effective new therapies are urgently needed for patients with OC.

The two pore channel TPC2 is dispensable in pancreatic β-cells for normal Ca2+ dynamics and insulin secretion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ca2+ signals are central to the stimulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells by glucose and other agents, including glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).

NRG1 fusions in breast cancer

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research, 2021
Background NRG1 gene fusions may be clinically actionable, since cancers carrying the fusion transcripts can be sensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Two pore channels (TPC2s) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) at lysosomal-sarcoplasmic reticular junctions contribute to acute and chronic β-adrenoceptor signaling in the heart [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ca2+-permeable type 2 two-pore channels (TPC2) are lysosomal proteins required for nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP)-evoked Ca2+ release in many diverse cell types.

Contribution of NAADP to Glutamate-Evoked Changes in Ca2+ Homeostasis in Mouse Hippocampal Neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is a second messenger that evokes calcium release from intracellular organelles by the engagement of calcium release channels, including members of the Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) family, such ...

Agonist-specific voltage-dependent gating of lysosomal two-pore Na+ channels

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Mammalian two-pore-channels (TPC1, 2; TPCN1, TPCN2) are ubiquitously- expressed, PI(3,5)P2-activated, Na+-selective channels in the endosomes and lysosomes that regulate luminal pH homeostasis, membrane trafficking, and Ebola viral infection. Whereas the
