Transient Receptor Potential Channels and Itch
Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels are multifunctional sensory molecules that are abundant in the skin and are involved in the sensory pathways of itch, pain, and inflammation. In this review article, we explore the complex physiology of different TRP channels, their role in modulating itch sensation, and their contributions to the ...

The distinctive role of menthol in pain and analgesia: Mechanisms, practices, and advances
Menthol is an important flavoring additive that triggers a cooling sensation. Under physiological condition, low to moderate concentrations of menthol activate transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 (TRPM8) in the primary ...

Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channels in Disease [PDF]
The transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily consists of a large number of cation channels that are mostly permeable to both monovalent and divalent cations. The 28 mammalian TRP channels can be subdivided into six main subfamilies: the TRPC (canonical), TRPV (vanilloid), TRPM (melastatin), TRPP (polycystin), TRPML (mucolipin), and the TRPA ...

The role of transient receptor potential channels in metastasis
Metastasis is the hallmark of failed tumor treatment and is typically associated with death due to cancer. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels affect changes in intracellular calcium concentrations and participate at every stage of metastasis.

Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) Channels [PDF]
Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels are evolutionarily conserved integral membrane proteins. The mammalian TRP superfamily of ion channels consists of 28 cation permeable channels that are grouped into six subfamilies based on sequence homology (Fig. 6.1).

Thermo-sensitive TRP channels and prevention of major chronic diseases
American scientists David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 2021 for their groundbreaking discoveries of capsaicin receptor TRPV1 and menthol receptor TRPM8, revealing the secrets of temperature perception. The

Classical Transient Receptor Potential 1 (TRPC1): Channel or Channel Regulator?
In contrast to other Classical Transient Receptor Potential TRPC channels the function of TRPC1 as an ion channel is a matter of debate, because it is often difficult to obtain substantial functional signals over background in response to over-expression
