TRPC Channels in Cardiac Plasticity [PDF]
The heart flexibly changes its structure in response to changing environments and oxygen/nutrition demands of the body. Increased and decreased mechanical loading induces hypertrophy and atrophy of cardiomyocytes, respectively.

The mammalian TRPC cation channels
Transient Receptor Potential-Canonical (TRPC) channels are mammalian homologs of Transient Receptor Potential (TRP), a Ca(2+)-permeable channel involved in the phospholipase C-regulated photoreceptor activation mechanism in Drosophila. The seven mammalian TRPCs constitute a family of channels which have been proposed to function as store-operated as ...

Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) Channels: Then and Now
Twenty-five years ago, the first mammalian Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) channel was cloned, opening the vast horizon of the TRPC field. Today, we know that there are seven TRPC channels (TRPC1–7).

TRPC Channels in the SOCE Scenario
Transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins form non-selective Ca2+ permeable channels that contribute to the modulation of a number of physiological functions in a variety of cell types. Since the identification of TRP proteins in Drosophila, it is well

TRPC Channels in Proteinuric Kidney Diseases [PDF]
Over a decade ago, mutations in the gene encoding TRPC6 (transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily C, member 6) were linked to development of familial forms of nephrosis. Since this discovery, TRPC6 has been implicated in the pathophysiology

Inhibition of diacylglycerol-sensitive TRPC channels by synthetic and natural steroids. [PDF]
TRPC channels are a family of nonselective cation channels that regulate ion homeostasis and intracellular Ca(2+) signaling in numerous cell types. Important physiological functions such as vasoregulation, neuronal growth, and pheromone recognition have ...

Insights into Activation Mechanisms of Store-Operated TRPC1 Channels in Vascular Smooth Muscle. [PDF]
In vascular smooth muscle cells (VMSCs), the stimulation of store-operated channels (SOCs) mediate Ca2+ influx pathways which regulate important cellular functions including contraction, proliferation, migration, and growth that are associated with the ...

Ca2+ Influx through TRPC Channels Is Regulated by Homocysteine–Copper Complexes
An elevated level of circulating homocysteine (Hcy) has been regarded as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, the clinical benefit of Hcy lowering-therapy is not satisfying.

TRPC Channels: Dysregulation and Ca2+ Mishandling in Ischemic Heart Disease
Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are ubiquitously expressed in excitable and non-excitable cardiac cells where they sense and respond to a wide variety of physical and chemical stimuli.
