Ca2+ Regulation of TRP Ion Channels [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Ca2+ signaling influences nearly every aspect of cellular life. Transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels have emerged as cellular sensors for thermal, chemical and mechanical stimuli and are major contributors to Ca2+ signaling, playing an ...

TRP Channels and Pain

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2009
Preclinical research has identified an array of ion channels in sensory neurons involved in the generation and transduction of pain as potential targets for pharmacological intervention. Paramount among these new targets is the family of thermosensitive transient receptor potential channels, referred to as "thermoTRPs".

TRP Channel Classification

Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 2017
The transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels are named after the discovery of the photo-transducted channels in Drosophila. TRPs, activated by various extracellular and intracellular stimuli, play a plethora of physiological and pathological roles.

An Introduction on TRP Channels

Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology, 2007
The transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels are named after the role of the channels in Drosophila phototransduction. Mammalian TRP channel subunit proteins are encoded by at least 28 genes. TRP cation channels display an extraordinary assortment of selectivities and activation mechanisms, some of which represent previously unrecognized modes ...

TRP Channels

Comprehensive Physiology, 2012
Abstract TRP channels constitute a large superfamily of cation channel forming proteins, all related to the gene product of the transient receptor potential ( trp ) locus in Drosophila .

TRP Channels in Yeast

2010
Microbes have made numerous contributions to the study of biology and medicine. Those contributions also include many original discovery's in the study of ion channels often thought as the province of neuroscientists or cardiophysiologists. Yeast have long been used as a model organism and TRP channel genes and their transmembrane products touted as ...

TRP Channels in Parasites

2010
A wide range of single- and multi-cellular parasites infect humans and other animals, causing some of the most prevalent and debilitating diseases on the planet. There have been virtually no published studies on the TRP channels of this diverse group of organisms.

TRP Channels in Disease

Science's STKE, 2005
The mammalian TRP (transient receptor potential) family consists of six main subfamilies termed the TRPC (canonical), TRPV (vanilloid), TRPM (melastatin), TRPP (polycystin), TRPML (mucolipin), and TRPA (ankyrin) groups. These subfamilies encompass 28 ion channels that function as diverse cellular sensors.

TRP channels in mechanosensation

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2005
Channels of the TRP superfamily have sensory roles in a wide variety of receptor cells, especially in mechanosensation. In some cases, the channels appear to be directly activated by mechanical force; in others, they appear to be downstream of a messenger pathway initiated by force on a non-channel sensor.

Nociception and TRP Channels

Current Drug Target -CNS & Neurological Disorders, 2004
Noxious thermal, mechanical, or chemical stimuli evoke pain through excitation of the peripheral terminals called nociceptor, and many kinds of ionotropic and metabotropic receptors are involved in this process. Capsaicin receptor TRPV1 is a nociceptor-specific ion channel that serves as the molecular target of capsaicin.
