The activation of mast cells (MC) is part of the innate and adaptive immune responses and depends on Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane, leading to the release of preformed inflammatory mediators by degranulation or by de novo synthesis.

Thermosensory TRPV Heterotetramers Drive Seasonal Polyphenism: Molecular Basis of CcIav/CcNan‐PKCα‐AKH/AKHR Signaling in Pear Psyllid Morph Transition [PDF]
Temperature critically governs seasonal polyphenism, shaping species distribution and invasion dynamics. Although vanilloid‐type transient receptor potential (TRPV) channels are conserved thermal sensors, their mechanistic role in orchestrating seasonal ...

BRET-Based Approaches for Ion Channels: Emerging Applications and Future Directions. [PDF]
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 ...

: Vanilloids are natural molecules identified in a plethora of foods normally ingested through the diet. They mediate apoptosis through a direct pathway (independent of TRPV-1, the receptor for vanilloids) and through an indirect pathway, i.e., thanks to

TRPV channels as temperature sensors [PDF]
The past year has seen a doubling in the number of heat-sensitive ion channels to six, and four of these channels are from the TRPV family. These channels characteristically have Q(10) values of >10 above the thermal threshold, very different from the Q(10) values of 1.5-2.0 seen in most ion channels.

Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid (TRPV) channels: Basal Properties and physiological potential [PDF]
Transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) channels are TRP homologs and have been classified into six subfamilies. They are unique mediators of sensory signals with multiple physiological effects and are potential targets for developing new therapies

Evaluating methods and protocols of ferritin-based magnetogenetics
Summary: FeRIC (Ferritin iron Redistribution to Ion Channels) is a magnetogenetic technique that uses radiofrequency (RF) alternating magnetic fields to activate the transient receptor potential channels, TRPV1 and TRPV4, coupled to cellular ferritins ...

Pan-Cancer Analysis Reveals Genomic and Clinical Characteristics of TRPV Channel-Related Genes
BackgroundTransient Receptor Potential channels (TRPs), a class of ion channels, were first described two decades ago. Many TRP family members are major participants in nociception and integration of heat and pain signals.
