The ion channel, TRPM2, contributes to the pathogenesis of radiodermatitis [PDF]

open access: yesRadiation and Environmental Biophysics, 2018
Radiodermatitis is a painful side effect for cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. Irradiation of the skin causes inflammation and breakdown of the epidermis and can lead to significant morbidity and mortality in severe cases, as seen in exposure from accidents or weapons such as "dirty bombs" and ultimately leads to tissue fibrosis.

Hypoxic Stress Induces Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 2 (TRPM2) Channel Expression in Adult Rat Cardiac Fibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
When cardiac tissue is exposed to hypoxia, myocytes are damaged, while fibroblasts are activated. However, it is unknown what changes are induced by hypoxia in cardiac fibroblasts.

Inactivation of TRPM2 Channels by Extracellular Divalent Copper

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
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+.

Assessment of temperature sensitivity of the TRPM2 channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
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 ...

TRPM2 Channels: A Potential Therapeutic Target in Melanoma?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
The transient receptor potential, the melastatin (TRPM) subfamily, which consists of eight known members, appears to have significant importance in melanoma progression, treatment, and prognosis. As several members were originally cloned from cancerous tissue, initial studies aimed towards identifying TRPM involvement in cancer progression and ...
