Transient Receptor Potential Channels and Calcium Signaling.

ABSTRACT: Transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channels play diverse roles in cellular Ca²⁺ signaling. First, as Ca²⁺-permeable channels that respond to a variety of stimuli, TRP channels can directly initiate cellular Ca²⁺ signals. Second, as nonselective cation channels, TRP channel activation leads to membrane depolarization, influencing Ca²⁺ influx via voltage-gated and store-operated Ca²⁺ channels. Finally, Ca²⁺ modulates the activity of most TRP channels, allowing them to function as molecular effectors downstream of intracellular Ca²⁺ signals. Whereas the TRP channel field has long been devoid of detailed channel structures, recent advances, particularly in cryo-electron microscopy-based structural approaches, have yielded a flurry of TRP channel structures, including members from all seven subfamilies. These structures, in conjunction with mutagenesis-based functional approaches, provided important new insights into the mechanisms whereby TRP channels permeate and sense Ca²⁺ These insights will be highly instrumental in the rational design of novel treatments for the multitude of TRP channel-related diseases.

Canonical transient receptor potential 3 channels regulate mitochondrial calcium uptake.

Project description:Mitochondrial Ca(2+) homeostasis is fundamental to regulation of mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP production, and cellular Ca(2+) homeostasis. It has been known for decades that isolated mitochondria can take up Ca(2+) from the extramitochondrial solution, but the molecular identity of the Ca(2+) channels involved in this action is largely unknown. Here, we show that a fraction of canonical transient receptor potential 3 (TRPC3) channels is localized to mitochondria, a significant fraction of mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake that relies on extramitochondrial Ca(2+) concentration is TRPC3-dependent, and the up- and down-regulation of TRPC3 expression in the cell influences the mitochondrial membrane potential. Our findings suggest that TRPC3 channels contribute to mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake. We anticipate our observations may provide insights into the mechanisms of mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake and advance understanding of the physiological role of TRPC3.

Transient receptor potential-like channels are essential for calcium signaling and fluid transport in a Drosophila epithelium.

Project description:Calcium signaling is an important mediator of neuropeptide-stimulated fluid transport by Drosophila Malpighian (renal) tubules. We demonstrate the first epithelial role, in vivo, for members of the TRP family of calcium channels. RT-PCR revealed expression of trp, trpl, and trpgamma in tubules. Use of antipeptide polyclonal antibodies for TRP, TRPL, and TRPgamma showed expression of all three channels in type 1 (principal) cells in the tubule main segment. Neuropeptide (CAP(2b))-stimulated fluid transport rates were significantly reduced in tubules from the trpl(302) mutant and the trpl;trp double mutant, trpl(302);trp(343). However, a trp null, trp(343), had no impact on stimulated fluid transport. Measurement of cytosolic calcium concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) in tubule principal cells using an aequorin transgene in trp and trpl mutants showed a reduction in calcium responses in trpl(302). Western blotting of tubule preparations from trp and trpl mutants revealed a correlation between TRPL levels and CAP(2b)-stimulated fluid transport and calcium signaling. Rescue of trpl(302) with a trpl transgene under heat-shock control resulted in a stimulated fluid transport phenotype that was indistinguishable from wild-type tubules. Furthermore, restoration of normal stimulated rates of fluid transport by rescue of trpl(302) was not compromised by introduction of the trp null, trp(343). Thus, in an epithelial context, TRPL is sufficient for wild-type responses. Finally, a scaffolding component of the TRPL/TRP-signaling complex, INAD, is not expressed in tubules, suggesting that inaD is not essential for TRPL/TRP function in Drosophila tubules.

Modulation of Calcium Transients in Cardiomyocytes by Transient Receptor Potential Canonical 6 Channels.

Project description:Transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6) channels are non-selective cation channels that are thought to underlie mechano-modulation of calcium signaling in cardiomyocytes. TRPC6 channels are involved in development of cardiac hypertrophy and related calcineurin-nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) signaling. However, the exact location and roles of TRPC6 channels remain ill-defined in cardiomyocytes. We used an expression system based on neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) to investigate the location of TRPC6 channels and their role in calcium signaling. NRVMs isolated from 1- to 2-day-old animals were cultured and infected with an adenoviral vector to express enhanced-green fluorescent protein (eGFP) or TRPC6-eGFP. After 3 days, NRVMs were fixed, immunolabeled, and imaged with confocal and super-resolution microscopy to determine TRPC6 localization. Cytosolic calcium transients at 0.5 and 1 Hz pacing rates were recorded in NRVMs using indo-1, a ratio-metric calcium dye. Confocal and super-resolution microscopy suggested that TRPC6-eGFP localized to the sarcolemma. NRVMs infected with TRPC6-eGFP exhibited higher diastolic and systolic cytosolic calcium concentration as well as increased sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) calcium load compared to eGFP infected cells. We applied a computer model comprising sarcolemmal TRPC6 current to explain our experimental findings. Altogether, our studies indicate that TRPC6 channels play a role in sarcolemmal and intracellular calcium signaling in cardiomyocytes. Our findings support the hypothesis that upregulation or activation of TRPC6 channels, e.g., in disease, leads to sustained elevation of the cytosolic calcium concentration, which is thought to activate calcineurin-NFAT signaling and cardiac hypertrophic remodeling. Also, our findings support the hypothesis that mechanosensitivity of TRPC6 channels modulates cytosolic calcium transients and SR calcium load.

The role of transient receptor potential cation channels in Ca2+ signaling.

Project description:The 28 mammalian members of the super-family of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are cation channels, mostly permeable to both monovalent and divalent cations, and can be subdivided into six main subfamilies: the TRPC (canonical), TRPV (vanilloid), TRPM (melastatin), TRPP (polycystin), TRPML (mucolipin), and the TRPA (ankyrin) groups. TRP channels are widely expressed in a large number of different tissues and cell types, and their biological roles appear to be equally diverse. In general, considered as polymodal cell sensors, they play a much more diverse role than anticipated. Functionally, TRP channels, when activated, cause cell depolarization, which may trigger a plethora of voltage-dependent ion channels. Upon stimulation, Ca2+ permeable TRP channels generate changes in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]i, by Ca2+ entry via the plasma membrane. However, more and more evidence is arising that TRP channels are also located in intracellular organelles and serve as intracellular Ca2+ release channels. This review focuses on three major tasks of TRP channels: (1) the function of TRP channels as Ca2+ entry channels; (2) the electrogenic actions of TRPs; and (3) TRPs as Ca2+ release channels in intracellular organelles.

The versatility of the putative transient receptor potential ion channels in regulating the calcium signaling in <i>Aspergillus nidulans</i>.

Project description:ImportanceTransient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels are evolutionarily conserved integral membrane proteins with non-selective ion permeability, and they are widely distributed in mammals and single-cell yeast and serve as crucial mediators of sensory signals. However, the relevant information concerning TRP channels in Aspergillus nidulans remains inadequately understood. In this study, by gene deletion, green fluorescent protein tagging, and cytosolic Ca2+ transient monitoring techniques, the biological functions of three potential TRP channels (TrpA, TrpB, and TrpC) have been explored for which they play distinct and multiple roles in hyphal growth, conidiation, responsiveness to external stress, and regulation of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. The findings of this study on the functions of potential TRP channels in A. nidulans may serve as a valuable reference for understanding the roles of TRP homologs in industrial or medical strains of Aspergillus, as well as in other filamentous fungi.

Ca(2+) signaling initiated by canonical transient receptor potential channels in dendritic development.

Project description:The spatial patterns of dendritic structures diverge in different types of neurons as adaptations to their unique functions. Although different intracellular mechanisms underlying dendritic morphogenesis have been suggested, it is evident that the elevation in intracellular Ca(2+) levels plays a major role in the process. Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels, known to be non-selective Ca(2+)-permeable cation channels, act as environmental detectors to sense and transduce extracellular signals into different intracellular responses, including the regulation of dendritic growth, via Ca(2+) influx. Here, we review recent advances in the understanding of Ca(2+) signaling, especially signals mediated by Ca(2+) influx via TRPC channels, and the underlying molecular events in dendritic development.

Analgesic transient receptor potential vanilloid-1-active compounds inhibit native and recombinant T-type calcium channels.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:T-type calcium (Cav 3) and transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) channels play central roles in the control of excitability in the peripheral nervous system and are regarded as potential therapeutic pain targets. Modulators that either activate or inhibit TRPV1-mediated currents display analgesic properties in various pain models despite opposing effects on their connate target, TRPV1. We explored the effects of TRPV1-active compounds on Cav 3-mediated currents. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH:Whole-cell patch clamp recordings were used to examine the effects of TRPV1-active compounds on rat dorsal root ganglion low voltage-activated calcium currents and recombinant Cav 3 isoforms in expression systems. KEY RESULTS:The classical TRPV1 agonist capsaicin as well as TRPV1 antagonists A-889425, BCTC, and capsazepine directly inhibited Cav 3 channels. These compounds altered the voltage-dependence of activation and inactivation of Cav 3 channels and delayed their recovery from inactivation, leading to a concomitant decrease in T-type current availability. The TRPV1 antagonist capsazepine potently inhibited Cav 3.1 and 3.2 channels (KD < 120 nM), as demonstrated by its slow off rate. In contrast, neither the TRPV1 agonists, Palvanil and resiniferatoxin, nor the TRPV1 antagonist AMG9810 modulated Cav 3-mediated currents. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS:Analgesic TRPV1-active compounds inhibit Cav 3 currents in native and heterologous systems. Hence, their analgesic effects may not be exclusively attributed to their actions on TRPV1, which has important implications in the current understanding of nociceptive pathways. Importantly, our results highlight the need for attention in the experimental design used to address the analgesic properties of Cav 3 channel inhibitors.

Short-term stimulation of calcium-permeable transient receptor potential canonical 5-containing channels by oxidized phospholipids.

Project description:To determine whether calcium-permeable channels are targets for the oxidized phospholipids: 1-palmitoyl-2-glutaroyl-phosphatidylcholine (PGPC) and 1-palmitoyl-2-oxovaleroyl-phosphatidylcholine (POVPC).Oxidized phospholipids are key factors in inflammation and associated diseases, including atherosclerosis; however, the initial reception mechanisms for cellular responses to the factors are poorly understood. Low micromolar concentrations of PGPC and POVPC evoked increases in intracellular calcium in human embryonic kidney 293 cells that overexpressed human transient receptor potential canonical 5 (TRPC5) but not human TRP melastatin (TRPM) 2 or 3. The results of electrophysiological experiments confirmed stimulation of TRPC5. To investigate relevance to endogenous channels, we studied proliferating vascular smooth muscle cells from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. PGPC and POVPC elicited calcium entry that was inhibited by anti-TRPC5 or anti-TRPC1 antibodies or dominant-negative mutant TRPC5. Calcium release did not occur. The effect was functionally relevant because it enhanced cell migration. The actions of PGPC and POVPC depended on G(i/o) proteins but not on previously identified G protein-coupled receptors for oxidized phospholipids.Stimulation of calcium-permeable TRPC5-containing channels may be an early event in cellular responses to oxidized phospholipids that couples to cell migration and requires an unidentified G protein-coupled receptor.
