TRP Channels Role in Pain Associated With Neurodegenerative Diseases
Transient receptor potential (TRP) are cation channels expressed in both non-excitable and excitable cells from diverse tissues, including heart, lung, and brain.

This work presents ARC‐3D, a soft 3D model that recreates how brain support cells, called astrocytes, react to oxidative stress. The system visualizes rapid calcium changes and inflammatory signals, and shows how the drug KDS12025 can protect cells from damage. ARC‐3D offers a simple, reliable way to study early drivers of brain inflammation.

Abstract figure legend In gravid human uterus smooth muscle, the oxytocin receptor (OXTR) and transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) calcium channel colocalize at <40 nm by proximity ligation. TRPV4 is necessary for oxytocin‐induced calcium influx and contractility in uterine smooth muscle cells.

TRPC1 and TRPC5 Form a Novel Cation Channel in Mammalian Brain [PDF]
TRP proteins are cation channels responding to receptor-dependent activation of phospholipase C. Mammalian (TRPC) channels can form hetero-oligomeric channels in vitro, but native TRPC channel complexes have not been identified to date.

Cold exposure and metabolic health: Therapeutic potential for obesity, diabetes, and beyond
Abstract Cold exposure, an inducer of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis, has been applied to relieve exercise‐induced pain and inflammation, modulate circulation and enhance metabolism. However, its role in managing metabolic diseases and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain inadequately understood.

Cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscle cells shared the common feature of contraction in response to different stimuli. Agonist-induced muscle's contraction is triggered by a cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration increase due to a rapid Ca2+ release from ...

TRPC Channels and Neuron Development, Plasticity, and Activities
In this chapter, we mainly focus on the functions of TRPC channels in brain development, including neural progenitor proliferation, neurogenesis, neuron survival, axon guidance, dendritic morphology, synaptogenesis, and neural plasticity.

Effects of TRPC1’s Lysines on Heteromeric TRPC5-TRPC1 Channel Function
Background: TRPC5 proteins form plasma membrane cation channels and are expressed in the nervous and cardiovascular systems. TRPC5 activation leads to cell depolarization and increases neuronal excitability, whereas a homologous TRPC1 inhibits TRPC5 ...

Identification and functional characterisation of a class on non-selective cation channels in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
Na⁺ accumulation is a significant component in salt toxicity in plants. Although many proteins that facilitate Na⁺ flux have been identified in plants, investigations aimed at identifying the initial mechanism of Na⁺ entry into plants have failed.

Vanilloid transient receptor potential cation channels: An overview [PDF]
The mammalian branch of the Transient Receptor Potential ( TRP) superfamily of cation channels consists of 28 members. They can be subdivided in six main subfamilies: the TRPC ('Canonical'), TRPV ('Vanilloid'), TRPM ('Melastatin'), TRPP ('Polycystin ...
