TRP Channels Role in Pain Associated With Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Transient receptor potential (TRP) are cation channels expressed in both non-excitable and excitable cells from diverse tissues, including heart, lung, and brain.

Role of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid Channels (TRPV) in Cancer: Narrative Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for nearly 10 million deaths in 2020. It leads cancer to being a global problem. Cancer can modify calcium signaling networks by altering the expression and function of cation channels, pumps ...

Generators of Pressure-Evoked Currents in Vertebrate Outer Retinal Neurons

open access: yesCells, 2021
(1) Background: High-tension glaucoma damages the peripheral vision dominated by rods. How mechanosensitive channels (MSCs) in the outer retina mediate pressure responses is unclear. (2) Methods: Immunocytochemistry, patch clamp, and channel fluorescence

Functional expression of TRPV4 channels in human collecting duct cells : implications for secondary hypertension in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background. The Vanilloid subfamily of transient receptor potential (TRPV) ion channels has been widely implicated in detecting osmotic and mechanical stress.

TRPV4 is the temperature-sensitive ion channel of human sperm

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Ion channels control the ability of human sperm to fertilize the egg by triggering hyperactivated motility, which is regulated by membrane potential, intracellular pH, and cytosolic calcium.

Structural Insight into the Assembly of TRPV Channels

open access: yes, 2014
SummaryTransient receptor potential (TRP) proteins are a large family of polymodal nonselective cation channels. The TRP vanilloid (TRPV) subfamily consists of six homologous members with diverse functions.

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...

Tissue-specific expression of TRP channel genes in the mouse and its variation in three different mouse strains

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2006
Background The purpose of this work was to study the gene expression of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in the mouse. The application of a standardized and quantitative technique, TaqMan RT-PCR, should give information about the pattern and ...

Neuronal and ion channel mechanisms of noxious heat sensing in mammals: A puzzle of sensory physiology and pharmacology

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was the first noxious heat‐sensitive channel discovered. In rodents, its role is robust in the heat response of the cell body of polymodal nociceptors, but surprisingly small in that of the peripheral terminals in the skin.

The Role of Neuropeptide Y in Dental Pulp: Balancing Neurogenic Inflammation and Pain Modulation

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental pulp is a densely innervated, low‐compliance tissue in which neurogenic inflammation can rapidly escalate into oedema, raised intrapulpal pressure, microvascular compromise, and pain. While Substance P (SP) and Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) are well‐established drivers of pulp vasodilation, the Neuroopeptide Y (NPY ...
