TRPC Channels and Epilepsy

2017
Accumulating evidence suggest that TRPC channels play critical roles in various aspects of epileptogenesis. TRPC1/4 channels are major contributors to nonsynaptically derived epileptiform burst firing in the CA1 and the lateral septum. TRPC7 channels play a critical role in synaptically derived epileptiform burst firing.

TRPC Channels and Programmed Cell Death

2017
Neurotrophins, including nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), bind to their high-affinity receptors to promote neuronal survival during brain development. One of the key downstream pathways is the phospholipase C (PLC) pathway, which not only plays a central role in calcium release from internal store but also in ...

TRPC Channels in Health and Disease

2017
This chapter offers a brief introduction of the functions of TRPC channels in non-neuronal systems. We focus on three major organs of which the research on TRPC channels have been most focused on: kidney, heart, and lung. The chapter highlights on cellular functions and signaling pathways mediated by TRPC channels.

TRPC channels in vascular cell function

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2010
SummaryThe mammalian transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily of non-selective cation channels can be divided into six major families. Among them, the “classical” or “canonical” TRPC family is most closely related to Drosophila TRP, the founding member of the superfamily.

TRPC Channel Downstream Signaling Cascades

2017
The family of TRP channel is comprised of a large group of cation-permeable channels, displaying as signaling integrators for sensing extracellular stimulus and initiating intracellular signaling cascades. This chapter offers a brief review of the signaling molecules related to TRPC channels, the first identified mammalian TRP family.

Inositol lipids and TRPC channel activation

Biochemical Society Symposia, 2007
The original hypothesis put forth by Bob Michell in his seminal 1975 review held that inositol lipid breakdown was involved in the activation of plasma membrane calcium channels or ‘gates’. Subsequently, it was demonstrated that while the interposition of inositol lipid breakdown upstream of calcium signalling was correct, it was predominantly the ...

TRPC Channel Structure and Properties

2017
TRPC channels are the first identified members in the TRP family. They function as either homo- or heterotetramers regulating intracellular Ca2+ concentration in response to numerous physiological or pathological stimuli. TRPC channels are nonselective cation channels permeable to Ca2+.

The enigmatic TRPCs: multifunctional cation channels

Trends in Cell Biology, 2004
Abstract Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels are vertebrate homologs of the Drosophila photoreceptor channel. Considerable research has been carried out on the seven members of this family, particularly regarding their possible role in Ca 2+ entry.

Interaction Between TRPC Channel Subunits in Endothelial Cells

Journal of Receptors and Signal Transduction, 2006
Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) proteins have been identified in mammals as a family of plasma membrane calcium-permeable channels activated by different kinds of stimuli in several cell types. We have studied TRPC subunit expression in bovine aortic endothelial (BAE-1) cells, where stimulation with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF ...

Physiological Functions and Regulation of TRPC Channels

2014
The TRP-canonical (TRPC) subfamily, which consists of seven members (TRPC1-TRPC7), are Ca(2+)-permeable cation channels that are activated in response to receptor-mediated PIP2 hydrolysis via store-dependent and store-independent mechanisms. These channels are involved in a variety of physiological functions in different cell types and tissues.
