A structural view of ligand-dependent activation in thermoTRP channels

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) proteins are a large family of ion channels, grouped intoseven sub-families. Although great advances have been made regarding the activation andmodulation of TRP channel activity, detailed molecular mechanisms governing

Identification of intracellular and plasma membrane calcium channel homologues in pathogenic parasites. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Ca(2+) channels regulate many crucial processes within cells and their abnormal activity can be damaging to cell survival, suggesting that they might represent attractive therapeutic targets in pathogenic organisms.

Temporal Immune and Metabolic Shifts Drive the Anti‐Tumor Efficacy of Resiquimod‐Loaded Nanoparticles in Peritoneal Carcinomatosis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a hard‐to‐treat spread of abdominal cancers that often returns after therapy. Nanoparticles were developed to retain an immune‐boosting drug in the abdomen. When combined with chemotherapy in mice, this approach eliminated tumors in many cases and prevented recurrence, helping the immune system mount a stronger, longer ...

Hair-Cell Mechanotransduction Persists in TRP Channel Knockout Mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Members of the TRP superfamily of ion channels mediate mechanosensation in some organisms, and have been suggested as candidates for the mechanotransduction channel in vertebrate hair cells.

TRPchannels in the skin [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2014
Emerging evidence suggests that transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels not only act as ‘polymodal cellular sensors’ on sensory neurons but are also functionally expressed by a multitude of non‐neuronal cell types. This is especially true in the skin, one of the largest organs of the body, where they appear to be critically involved in ...

Turning Unpredictable Biomolecule Adsorption to Controlled Corona Formation: Focus on Carbon Nanomaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Controlling the protein corona formation onto carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) enhances their functionalities as platforms for cancer theranostics. Here, we reviewed the effects of the intrinsic and acquired properties of CNMs on protein corona formation, the consequent biological and toxicological outcomes, and the strategies to reshape corona formation ...

Carboxamido steroids inhibit the opening properties of transient receptor potential ion channels by lipid raft modulation

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2018
Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) cation channels, like the TRP Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and TRP Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), are expressed on primary sensory neurons. These thermosensor channels play a role in pain processing.

Ratiometric Mycotoxin Detection in Living Plants With Dual‐Emissive Nanosensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A minimally invasive microneedle patch integrates carbon dot‐embedded metal–organic frameworks as nanosensors to detect a key fungal toxin in living plants. The nanosensor produces a ratiometric fluorescence signal that enables early, non‐destructive diagnosis of fungal infection before visible symptoms, offering a new biomaterials‐based strategy for ...

TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2016
Ion channels of the Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) family mediate the influx of monovalent and/or divalent cations into cells in response to a host of chemical or physical stimuli. In the skin, TRP channels are expressed in many cell types, including
