Functions of TRPs in retinal tissue in physiological and pathological conditions
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 ...

Non-selective transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) cation channels are activated by various insults, including exposure to heat, acidity, and the compound capsaicin, resulting in sensations of pain in the skin, visceral organs, and oral cavity ...

Phagocytosis depends on TRPV2-mediated calcium influx and requires TRPV2 in lipids rafts: alteration in macrophages from patients with cystic fibrosis. [PDF]
Whereas many phagocytosis steps involve ionic fluxes, the underlying ion channels remain poorly defined. As reported in mice, the calcium conducting TRPV2 channel impacts the phagocytic process.

Abstract Background Canine mammary carcinoma (CMC) is characterised by a chronic inflammatory microenvironment resembling human breast cancer; however, the upstream regulatory mechanisms driving this phenotype remain unclear. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) has emerged as a potential modulator of inflammation and tumour biology.

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.

Understand spiciness: mechanism of TRPV1 channel activation by capsaicin. [PDF]
Capsaicin in chili peppers bestows the sensation of spiciness. Since the discovery of its receptor, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) ion channel, how capsaicin activates this channel has been under extensive investigation using a variety ...

After intracerebral hemorrhage, microglial TRPV1 channel opening increases intracellular calcium, triggering excessive AMPK‐PINK1‐mediated mitophagy. This causes microglial dysfunction, neuronal necrosis/apoptosis, blood–brain barrier disruption, and neurological impairment.

Summary: By vacuolar patch-clamp and Ca2+ imaging experiments, we show that the yeast vacuolar transient receptor potential (TRPY) channel 1 is activated by cytosolic Ca2+ and inhibited by Ca2+ from the vacuolar lumen.

The Thoracic Lymphatic Vasculature: Interorgan Strategies to Achieve an Optimal Tissue Function
In the thorax, organ‐specific features such as stomata and submesothelial lacunae, pulmonary perivascular and peribronchial vessels, and subepicardial lymphatic network allow the thoracic lymphatics to perform as a dynamically regulated system able to exploit local mechanical forces and tissue‐specific architecture to maintain fluid and solute ...
