Polysulfide Evokes Acute Pain through the Activation of Nociceptive TRPA1 in Mouse Sensory Neurons

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2015
Background Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is oxidized to polysulfide. Recent reports show that this sulfur compound modulates various biological functions. We have reported that H 2 S is involved in inflammatory pain in mice. On the other hand, little is known

TRPA1 expression and its functional activation in rodent cortex [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
TRPA1 is a non-selective cation channel involved in pain sensation and neurogenic inflammation. Although TRPA1 is well established in a number of organs including the nervous system, its presence and function in the mammalian cortex remains unclear. Here,

Research Progress on Upper Airway Cough Syndrome

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Upper airway cough syndrome (UACS) has been identified as a significant contributor to chronic cough in various national guidelines. However, the complexity of its pathogenesis, the lack of clarity surrounding its diagnostic criteria, and its overlap with other etiologies of chronic cough present considerable challenges in both diagnosis and ...

ETR and protein kinase A pathway mediate ET-1 sensitization of TRPA1 channel: A molecular mechanism of ET-1-induced mechanical hyperalgesia

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2019
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent endogenous vasoconstrictor that has been widely known as a pain mediator involved in various pain states. Evidence indicates that ET-1 sensitizes transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily A, member 1 (TRPA1 ...

Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (trpa1) mediates il-1β-induced apoptosis in rat chondrocytes via calcium overload and mitochondrial dysfunction

open access: yesJournal of Inflammation, 2018
Background Chondrocyte apoptosis is a central feature in the progression of osteoarthritis (OA), and would be triggered by sustained elevation of intracellular calcium ion (Ca2+), also known as a cellular second messenger.

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.

Where Eastern Medicine Meets Western Medicine: A World Review of the Management of Chronic Cough

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To summarize current Western and Eastern approaches to the evaluation and management of chronic cough, with particular emphasis on etiology‐directed therapy, cough hypersensitivity, behavioral interventions, neuromodulators, procedural treatments, and traditional remedies.

Geographical Variation in Thermal Adaptation of the Asiatic Toad (Bufo gargarizans)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Northern and southern populations of Bufo gargarizans exhibit coordinated divergence in thermal preference, resting metabolic rate, and TRPM4 temperature sensitivity along a climatic gradient. ABSTRACT Thermal adaptation in animals can manifest in multiple dimensions, yet few studies have integrated behavioral, physiological, and molecular perspectives

Potency of irritation by benzylidenemalononitriles in humans correlates with TRPA1 ion channel activation [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2015
We show that the physiological activity of solid aerosolized benzylidenemalononitriles (BMNs) including ‘tear gas’ (CS) in historic human volunteer trials correlates with activation of the human transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 ion channel (hTRPA1).

The Origins of Allergy: An Outside‐In, Bioenergetic Hypothesis

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic disease has risen too rapidly for inherited susceptibility to explain it, and the risk variants so far reported lie in the epithelial barrier and in type‐2 immunity. We propose a five‐layer model in which epithelial barrier and bioenergetic dysfunction may precede and promote type‐2 immune deviation rather than arise solely as its ...
