TRPM2 Promotes Atherosclerotic Progression in a Mouse Model of Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory arterial disease characterized by build-up of atheromatous plaque, which narrows the lumen of arteries. Hypercholesterolemia and excessive oxidative stress in arterial walls are among the main causative factors ...

TRPM2 Is Not Required for T-Cell Activation and Differentiation [PDF]
Antigen recognition by the T-cell receptor induces a cytosolic Ca2+ signal that is crucial for T-cell function. The Ca2+ channel TRPM2 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 2) has been shown to facilitate influx of extracellular

Neuroimmune Regulation by TRPM2 Channels
Mutual interaction between the nervous and immune systems underpins many pathophysiological processes. Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 2 (TRPM2) channels are abundantly expressed in both systems, acting as a critical interface of neuroimmune ...

Targeting TRPM2 in ROS-Coupled Diseases [PDF]
Under pathological conditions such as inflammation and ischemia-reperfusion injury large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated which, in return, contribute to the development and exacerbation of disease.

TRPM2 in the Brain: Role in Health and Disease [PDF]
Transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins have been implicated in several cell functions as non-selective cation channels, with about 30 different mammalian TRP channels having been recognized. Among them, TRP-melastatin 2 (TRPM2) is particularly involved in the response to oxidative stress and inflammation, while its activity depends on the presence

TRPM2 enhances ischemic excitotoxicity by associating with PKCγ
Summary: N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR)-mediated glutamate excitotoxicity significantly contributes to ischemic neuronal death and post-recanalization infarction expansion.

Involvement of TRPM2 in peripheral nerve injury-induced infiltration of peripheral immune cells into the spinal cord in mouse neuropathic pain model. [PDF]
Recent evidence suggests that transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) expressed in immune cells plays an important role in immune and inflammatory responses.

cADPR is a second messenger that releases Ca2+ from intracellular stores via the ryanodine receptor. Over more than 15 years, it has been controversially discussed whether cADPR also contributes to the activation of the nucleotide-gated cation channel TRPM2.

TRPM2 and warmth sensation [PDF]
The abilities to detect warmth and heat are critical for the survival of all animals, both in order to be able to identify suitable thermal environments for the many different activities essential for life and to avoid damage caused by extremes of temperature.
