TRPA-driven activity-dependent structural plasticity at the Drosophila NMJ.
A: Schematic diagram of the NMJ submitted to a temperature stimulus that allows the entry of cations through the TRPA channels. B, D, E, G, and H: Quantification of the average number of ghost boutons at the muscle 6/7 NMJ (segment A3) with and without ...

TRPA channels distinguish gravity sensing from hearing in Johnston's organ [PDF]
Although many animal species sense gravity for spatial orientation, the molecular bases remain uncertain. Therefore, we studied Drosophila melanogaster , which possess an inherent upward movement against gravity-negative geotaxis.

Background: Public transport (PT) users typically accumulate more physical activity (PA) than private motor vehicle users yet redressing physical inactivity through transport-related PA (TRPA) interventions has received limited attention.

The Drosophila TRPA channel, Painless, regulates sexual receptivity in virgin females [PDF]
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels play crucial roles in sensory perception. Expression of the Drosophila painless (pain) gene, a homolog of the mammalian TRPA1/ANKTM1 gene, in the peripheral nervous system is required for avoidance behavior of noxious heat or wasabi.

A molecular characterization of spontaneous frameshift mutagenesis within the trpA gene of Escherichia coli [PDF]
Spontaneous frameshift mutations are an important source of genetic variation in all species and cause a large number of genetic disorders in humans. To enhance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of frameshift mutagenesis, 583 spontaneous Trp+ revertants of two trpA frameshift alleles in Escherichia coli were isolated and DNA sequenced.

Garlic Activate TRPA Receptor as a potential therapeutic target in skin related diseases
Garlic's pungent flavor has made it a prominent component in cuisines throughout the globe for decades. When chopped and put on the tongue or lips, raw garlic triggers unpleasant burning and prickling sensations by unknown processes. In this study, we demonstrate that raw garlic activates TRPA1 and TRPV1, two temperature-activated ion channels that ...
