A role of canonical transient receptor potential 5 channel in neuronal differentiation from A2B5 neural progenitor cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) channels are the main pathway of Ca(2+) entry in non-excitable cells such as neural progenitor cells (NPCs). However, the role of SOCE channels has not been defined in the neuronal differentiation from NPCs.

TRPC channel activation by extracellular thioredoxin [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2008
Mammalian homologues of Drosophila melanogaster transient receptor potential (TRP) are a large family of multimeric cation channels that act, or putatively act, as sensors of one or more chemical factor. Major research objectives are the identification of endogenous activators and the determination of cellular and tissue functions of these channels ...

Structure–Function Relationship and Physiological Roles of Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) 4 and 5 Channels

open access: yesCells, 2019
The study of the structure−function relationship of ion channels has been one of the most challenging goals in contemporary physiology. Revelation of the three-dimensional (3D) structure of ion channels has facilitated our understanding of many of ...

TRPC channels in smooth muscle cells [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2010
Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) proteins constitute a family of seven (TRPC1-7) nonselective cation channels within the wider TRP superfamily. TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC4, TRPC5 and TRPC6 channels are expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells from human vessels of all calibers and in smooth muscle from organs such as the uterus and the ...

Potential Arrhythmogenic Role of TRPC Channels and Store-Operated Calcium Entry Mechanism in Mouse Ventricular Myocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Background and Purpose: Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is an important physiological phenomenon that extensively mediates intracellular calcium ion (Ca2+) load. It has been previously found in myocytes isolated from neonatal or diseased hearts.

Physiological Function and Characterization of TRPCs in Neurons

open access: yesCells, 2014
Ca2+ entry is essential for regulating vital physiological functions in all neuronal cells. Although neurons are engaged in multiple modes of Ca2+ entry that regulates variety of neuronal functions, we will only discuss a subset of specialized Ca2 ...

Characterization of DAG Binding to TRPC Channels by Target-Dependent cis–trans Isomerization of OptoDArG

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Azobenzene-based photochromic lipids are valuable probes for the analysis of ion channel–lipid interactions. Rapid photoisomerization of these molecules enables the analysis of lipid gating kinetics and provides information on lipid sensing.

Function and Regulation of Endothelin Type A Receptor–Operated Transient Receptor Potential Canonical Channels

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2011
.: The purpose of this study is to identify transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels responsible for receptor-operated Ca2+ entry (ROCE) triggered by activation of endothelin type A receptor (ETAR) and to clarify the importance of ...

TRPC Channels and their Implications for Neurological Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesCNS & Neurological Disorders - Drug Targets, 2010
Calcium is an essential intracellular messenger and serves critical cellular functions in both excitable and non-excitable cells. Most of the physiological functions in these cells are uniquely regulated by changes in cytosolic Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+](i)), which are achieved via various mechanisms.
