Effect of TRPM8 and TRPA1 Polymorphisms on COPD Predisposition and Lung Function in COPD Patients.

ABSTRACT: Certain transient receptor potential (TRP) channels including TRPM8 and TRPA1 are widely expressed in the respiratory tract and have been shown to be the receptors of cigarette smoke and particulate matter-the main causative factors of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of TRPM8 and TRPA1 polymorphisms on COPD predisposition and lung function in COPD patients. The study enrolled 143 COPD patients and 104 smokers with post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) > 70%. Lung function was measured by spirometry. TRPM8 and TRPA1 polymorphisms were genotyped by LATE-PCR. None of the polymorphisms significantly influenced COPD predisposition after correction for covariates and multiple testing. Among COPD patients, the TT genotype of TRPA1 rs7819749 was significantly associated with higher degree of bronchial obstruction. In addition, we established that carriers of the C allele of TRPM8 rs11562975 more commonly had post-bronchodilator FEV1 < 60% (OR 3.2, 95%CI (1.14-8.94), p = 0.03) and revealed the effect of TRPA1 rs959976 and TRPM8 rs17865682 on bronchodilator response in COPD. Thus, the obtained results suggest possible involvement of TRPM8 and TRPA1 in COPD pathogenesis, indicating the necessity to further investigate their functional role in this pathology.

Project description:BackgroundThe cooling agents menthol and icilin act as agonists at TRPM8 and TRPA1. In vitro, activation of TRPM8 by icilin and cold, but not menthol, is dependent on the activity of a sub-type of phospholipase A2, iPLA2. Lysophospholipids (e.g. LPC) produced by PLA2 activity can also activate TRPM8. The role of TRPA1 as a primary cold sensor in vitro is controversial, although there is evidence that TRPA1 plays a role in behavioural responses to noxious cold stimuli. In this study, we have investigated the roles of TRPM8 and TRPA1 and the influence of iPLA2 on noxious cold sensitivities in naïve animals and after local administration of menthol, icilin and LPC. The roles of the channels in cold sensitivity were investigated in mice lacking either TRPM8 (Trpm8-/-) or TRPA1 (Trpa1-/-).ResultsIntraplantar administration of icilin evoked a dose-dependent increase in sensitivity to a 10 degrees C stimulus that was inhibited by iPLA2 inhibition with BEL. In contrast the cold hypersensitivities elicited by intraplantar menthol and LPC were not inhibited by BEL treatment. BEL had no effect on basal cold sensitivity and mechanical hypersensitivities induced by the TRPV1 agonist, capsaicin, and the P2X3 agonist alpha,beta-methylene ATP. Both Trpm8-/- and Trpa1-/- mice showed longer latencies for paw withdrawal from a 10 degrees C stimulus than wild-type littermates. Cold hypersensitivities induced by either icilin or LPC were absent in Trpm8-/- mice but were retained in Trpa1-/- mice. In contrast, cold hypersensitivity evoked by menthol was present in Trpm8-/- mice but was lost in Trpa1-/- mice.ConclusionsThe findings that iPLA2 inhibition blocked the development of cold hypersensitivity after administration of icilin but failed to affect menthol-induced hypersensitivity agree well with our earlier in vitro data showing a differential effect of iPLA2 inhibition on the agonist activities of these agents. The ability of LPC to induce cold hypersensitivity supports a role for iPLA2 in modulating TRPM8 activity in vivo. Studies on genetically modified mice demonstrated that the effects of icilin and LPC were mediated by TRPM8 and not TRPA1. In contrast, menthol-induced cold hypersensitivity was dependent on expression of TRPA1 and not TRPM8.
