TRPA1 as Target in Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily A member 1 (TRPA1), an ion channel primarily expressed on sensory neurons, can be activated by substances occurring during myocardial infarction. Aims were to investigate whether activation, inhibition, or absence of TRPA1 affects infarcts and to explore underlying mechanisms.

Chilling injury mechanism in the immature oocytes of zebrafish (Danio rerio)

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development
Immature zebrafish oocytes are sensitive to chilling, and their survival is markedly reduced by exposure to 0°C. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of cold-sensitive channels and lipid mediators in chilling injury in immature zebrafish ...

Transient Receptor Potential Channel A1 (TRPA1) Regulates Sulfur Mustard-Induced Expression of Heat Shock 70 kDa Protein 6 (HSPA6) In Vitro

open access: yesCells, 2018
The chemosensory transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) ion channel perceives different sensory stimuli. It also interacts with reactive exogenous compounds including the chemical warfare agent sulfur mustard (SM).

The Role of TRPA1 Channels in the Central Processing of Odours Contributing to the Behavioural Responses of Mice

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), a nonselective cation channel, contributes to several (patho)physiological processes. Smell loss is an early sign in several neurodegenerative disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s and ...

Decreased cold‐sensing function of the transient receptor potential channel TRPM8 from tailed amphibians

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Despite frogs avoiding low temperatures, examination of four salamander species revealed that none avoided cold and all possessed cold tolerance. Functional analysis of TRPM8, a cold sensor, showed that all salamander TRPM8s had lost their cold sensitivity.

Molecular Regulations and Functions of the Transient Receptor Potential Channels of the Islets of Langerhans and Insulinoma Cells

open access: yesCells, 2020
Insulin secretion from the β-cells of the islets of Langerhans is triggered mainly by nutrients such as glucose, and incretin hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).

TRPA1 mediates sensation of the rate of temperature change in Drosophila larvae. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Avoidance of noxious ambient heat is crucial for survival. A well-known phenomenon is that animals are sensitive to the rate of temperature change.

Sensitization of the Trigeminovascular System following Environmental Irritant Exposure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Air pollution is linked to increased emergency room visits for headache, and migraine patients frequently cite chemicals or odors as headache triggers, but the association between air pollutants and headache is not well understood.

A Central Somatic Transmission Mediates Proprioceptive Facilitation of Muscle Pain

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Zhang et al. uncover a novel central mechanism for persistent muscle pain, in which TRPA1 sensitization in MeV proprioceptive neurons enhances somatic secretion. This, in turn, disinhibits descending pain control from neighboring noradrenergic locus coeruleus neurons via local GABAergic circuits, thereby promoting inflammatory muscle pain.

Linkage of alternative exon assembly in Drosophila TrpA1 transcripts

open access: yesMolecules and Cells
: Drosophila TrpA1 (transient receptor potential ankyrin 1) transcripts are alternatively spliced at 2 distinct sites each with a choice of mutually exclusive exons.
