Differential Effects of TRPA and TRPV Channels on Behaviors of
TRPA and TRPV ion channels are members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channel superfamily, which mediates various sensory transductions.

A molecular determinant of phosphoinositide affinity in mammalian TRPV channels. [PDF]
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2 ] is an important cofactor for ion channels. Affinity for this lipid is a major determinant of channel inhibition by depletion of PI(4,5)P2 upon phospholipase C (PLC) activation. Little is known about what

The expression of TRPV channels, prostaglandin E2 and pro-inflammatory cytokines during behavioural fever in fish [PDF]
A fever, or increased body temperature, is a symptom of inflammation, which is a complex defence reaction of the organism to pathogenic infections. After pathogens enter the body, immune cells secrete a number of agents, the functions of which stimulate ...

Expression of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid (TRPV) channels in different passages of articular chondrocytes. [PDF]
Ion channels play important roles in chondrocyte mechanotransduction. The transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) subfamily of ion channels consists of six members.

TRPV channels activation induces cell death in Human Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma cell lines
Introduction Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma is one of the most aggressive and lethal malignancy. The main therapeutic strategy is surgical resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy, but only 10-20-% of patients have a resectable form, while if it is

The membrane-associated transient receptor potential vanilloid channel is the central heat shock receptor controlling the cellular heat shock response in epithelial cells. [PDF]
The heat shock response (HSR) is a highly conserved molecular response to various types of stresses, including heat shock, during which heat-shock proteins (Hsps) are produced to prevent and repair damages in labile proteins and membranes.

A functional nuclear localization sequence in the C. elegans TRPV channel OCR-2. [PDF]
The ability to modulate gene expression in response to sensory experience is critical to the normal development and function of the nervous system. Calcium is a key activator of the signal transduction cascades that mediate the process of translating a ...
