Extinction of contextual fear memory is facilitated in TRPM2 knockout mice
Transient receptor potential melastatin type 2 (TRPM2) is a nonselective cation channel involved in synaptic plasticity. We investigated its role in contextual fear conditioning and extinction of conditioned fear using Trpm2-deficient (Trpm2 −/− ) mice ...

Abstract figure legend Calmodulin (CaM) is a ubiquitous calcium (Ca2+) sensor that translates intracellular Ca2+ signals into modulation of hundreds of effector proteins including ion channels. CaM is increasingly recognized as a key regulator of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channel family, yet the underlying ‘calmodulation playbook’ is only ...

Assessment of temperature sensitivity of the TRPM2 channel [PDF]
TRPM2 belongs to the TRP family, and is expressed in neurons of the central nervous system, bone marrow, phagocytes, β-cells, and cardiomyocytes. It forms Ca2+-permeable nonselective cation channels that open under oxidative stress by simultaneous ...

Background Glutathione (GSH) plays an important role in neuronal oxidant defence. Depletion of cellular GSH is observed in neurodegenerative diseases and thereby contributes to the associated oxidative stress and Ca2+ dysregulation.

Renin‐Angiotensin Signaling and Vascular Function: Insights into Health and Disease
ABSTRACT The renin‐angiotensin system (RAS) is an essential regulator of vascular structure and function, and dysregulation of angiotensin II (Ang II) signaling plays a critical role in the development of hypertension and associated vascular complications.

Inactivation of TRPM2 Channels by Extracellular Divalent Copper
Cu2+ is an essential metal ion that plays a critical role in the regulation of a number of ion channels and receptors in addition to acting as a cofactor in a variety of enzymes. Here, we showed that human melastatin transient receptor potential 2 (hTRPM2) channel is sensitive to inhibition by extracellular Cu2+.

Objectives The study aimed to investigate the signalling mechanism for TRPM2 channel activation by non-cytolytic oxidative stress in microglia.Methods Microglia from wild-type (WT) and TRPM2-knockout (KO) mice were exposed to 10-30 mM H2O2 for up to 24 ...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in macrophage development but little is known about their role in asthma. Here, we investigated the role of lncRNA lncTRPM2-AS in asthma and found that lncTRPM2-AS participates in the promotion of ...

ABSTRACT Environmental contaminants like bisphenol A (BPA) and nonylphenol (NP) are recognized neurotoxicants; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying their impact on sensory ganglia, specifically the trigeminal ganglion (TG), remain critically underexplored.
