Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 3 Channel [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2011
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a large family of ion channel proteins, that are activated and regulated through strikingly diverse mechanisms, making them suitable candidates for cellular sensors.TRPM3 is based on sequence homology most closely related to TRPM1.

Expression and Characterization of Human Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 3 (hTRPM3) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
Transient receptor potential (TRP) cation-selective channels are an emerging class of proteins that are involved in a variety of important biological functions including pain transduction, thermosensation, mechanoregulation, and vasorelaxation. Utilizing a bioinformatics approach, we have identified the full-length human TRPM3 (hTRPM3) as a member of ...

Cellular Regulation of Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 3 (TRPM3) Channel Activity [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2014
TRPM3 is a less characterized member of the melastatin subfamily of transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels activated by the neurosteroid pregnenolone sulphate (PS) and heat. Recently we have shown that TRPM3 is a thermosensitive nociceptor channel involved in the detection of noxious heat and mediating the nocifensive behaviour evoked by PS ...

Renin-Angiotensin Signaling and Vascular Function: Insights into Health and Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Physiol (Oxf)
ABSTRACT The renin‐angiotensin system (RAS) is an essential regulator of vascular structure and function, and dysregulation of angiotensin II (Ang II) signaling plays a critical role in the development of hypertension and associated vascular complications.

TRPM3 in Brain (Patho)Physiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Already for centuries, humankind is driven to understand the physiological and pathological mechanisms that occur in our brains. Today, we know that ion channels play an essential role in the regulation of neural processes and control many functions of ...

Alternative splicing of a protein domain indispensable for function of transient receptor potential melastatin 3 (TRPM3) ion channels. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2012
TRPM3 channels form ionotropic steroid receptors in the plasma membrane of pancreatic β and dorsal root ganglion cells and link steroid hormone signaling to insulin release and pain perception, respectively. We identified and compared the function of a number of TRPM3 splice variants present in mouse, rat and human tissues.

Hypotonic stress induces RANKL via transient receptor potential melastatin 3 (TRPM3) and vaniloid 4 (TRPV4) in human PDL cells. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Dent Res, 2015
Bone remodeling occurs in response to various types of mechanical stress. The periodontal ligament (PDL) plays an important role in mechanical stress–mediated alveolar bone remodeling. However, the underlying mechanism at the cellular level has not been extensively studied.

Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 3 Is Functionally Expressed in Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells and Is Upregulated in Ischemic Demyelinated Lesions

open access: yesBiological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2021
Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are glial cells that differentiate into oligodendrocytes and myelinate axons. The number of OPCs is reportedly increased in brain lesions in some demyelinating diseases and during ischemia; however, these cells also secrete cytokines and elicit both protective and deleterious effects in response to brain injury ...
