Ca2+ Influx through TRPC Channels Is Regulated by Homocysteine–Copper Complexes [PDF]
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 as emerging targets for seizure disorders [PDF]
Epilepsy is characterized by seizures of diverse types that affect about 1-2% of the population worldwide. Current antiseizure medications are unsatisfactory, as they merely provide symptomatic relief, are ineffective in about one-third of patients, and cause unbearable adverse effects. Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are a group

TRPC channels in exercise-mimetic therapy [PDF]
Physical exercise yields beneficial effects on all types of muscle cells, which are essential for the maintenance of cardiovascular homeostasis and good blood circulation. Daily moderate exercise increases systemic antioxidative capacity, which can lead to the prevention of the onset and progression of oxidative stress-related diseases.

TRPC Channels in Health and Disease
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 contribute to endothelial dysfunction in pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
Background- Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare, fatal, and progressive pulmonary vascular disease. Pulmonary endothelial cell dysfunction is a hallmark of PAH, defined by excessive proliferation and dysregulated angiogenesis, along with ...

Dynamics of receptor-operated Ca2+ Currents Through TRPC Channels Controlled via the PI(4,5)P2-PLC Signaling Pathway [PDF]
Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are Ca2+-permeable, nonselective cation channels that carry receptor-operated Ca2+ currents (ROCs) triggered by receptor-induced, phospholipase C (PLC)-catalyzed hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4 ...

Blockade of TRPC Channels Limits Cholinergic-Driven Hyperexcitability and Seizure Susceptibility After Traumatic Brain Injury [PDF]
We investigated the contribution of excitatory transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) cation channels to posttraumatic hyperexcitability in the brain 7 days following controlled cortical impact model of traumatic brain injury (TBI) to the parietal

TRPC channels are not required for graded persistent activity in entorhinal cortex neurons [PDF]
: Adaptive behavior requires the transient storage of information beyond the physical presence of external stimuli. This short-lasting form of memory involves sustained ("persistent") neuronal firing which may be generated by cell-autonomous biophysical ...
