Drafting the calmodulation playbook: Emerging structural insights into transient receptor potential channel regulation by calmodulin

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Multimodal targets of (‐)‐α‐thujone mediating avoidance behavior of a stored‐products pest, Tribolium castaneum, in response to irritant stimuli

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9592-9598, October 2026.
We identified four kinds of target molecules against (‐)‐α‐thujone associating avoidance behavior in Tribolium castaneum, indicating multimodality. Abstract BACKGROUND The reciprocal evolutionary processes among phytophagous insects and host plants involve host shift in the herbivorous insects in response to defense chemicals, such as plant‐derived ...

“Immuno-Transient Receptor Potential Ion Channels”: The Role in Monocyte- and Macrophage-Mediated Inflammatory Responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Monocytes and macrophages play important roles in health and disease. They have a central role in protecting the host, as they clear pathogens and modulate other immune cell functions through the production of regulatory molecules.

BRET‐Based Approaches for Ion Channels: Emerging Applications and Future Directions

open access: yesArchiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 9, September 2026.
Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) is a versatile method for studying ligand–protein interactions. Its compatibility with high‐throughput screening and real‐time kinetics has made it widely used in drug discovery. Here, we summarize recent applications of BRET‐based methods for studying ligand binding to ion channels, highlighting key ...

Functions of TRPs in retinal tissue in physiological and pathological conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
The Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) constitutes a family of channels subdivided into seven subfamilies: Ankyrin (TRPA), Canonical (TRPC), Melastatin (TRPM), Mucolipin (TRPML), no-mechano-potential C (TRPN), Polycystic (TRPP), and Vanilloid (TRPV ...

Reduced Expression of Magnesium Transport Proteins in the Distal Convoluted Tubule of Clcnkb‐Deficient Mice May Explain Urinary Magnesium Wasting in Classical Bartter Syndrome

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The kidney thick ascending limb (TAL) plays a key role in the transport of sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Bartter syndrome is a hypokalemic, salt‐losing tubulopathy caused by impaired TAL function. Pathogenic variants in SLC12A1 or KCNJ1 cause antenatal Bartter syndrome, and variants in CLCNKB result in classical ...

Conservation of the cooling agent binding pocket within the TRPM subfamily

open access: yeseLife
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a large and diverse family of tetrameric cation-selective channels that are activated by many different types of stimuli, including noxious heat or cold, organic ligands such as vanilloids or cooling agents,
