Discrimination of intracellular calcium store subcompartments using TRPV1 (transient receptor potential channel, vanilloid subfamily member 1) release channel activity.

ABSTRACT: The store-operated calcium-release-activated calcium current, I (CRAC), is a major mechanism for calcium entry into non-excitable cells. I (CRAC) refills calcium stores and permits sustained calcium signalling. The relationship between inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP(3)R)-containing stores and I (CRAC) is not understood. A model of global InsP(3)R store depletion coupling with I (CRAC) activation may be simplistic, since intracellular stores are heterogeneous in their release and refilling activities. Here we use a ligand-gated calcium channel, TRPV1 (transient receptor potential channel, vanilloid subfamily member 1), as a new tool to probe store heterogeneity and define intracellular calcium compartments in a mast cell line. TRPV1 has activity as an intracellular release channel but does not mediate global calcium store depletion and does not invade a store coupled with I (CRAC). Intracellular TRPV1 localizes to a subset of the InsP(3)R-containing stores. TRPV1 sensitivity functionally subdivides the InsP(3)-sensitive store, as does heterogeneity in the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase isoforms responsible for store refilling. These results provide unequivocal evidence that a specific 'CRAC store' exists within the InsP(3)-releasable calcium stores and describe a novel methodology for manipulation of intracellular free calcium.

New transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily member 1 positron emission tomography radioligands: synthesis, radiolabeling, and preclinical evaluation.

Project description:The transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily member 1 (TRPV1) cation channel is known to be involved in pain nociception and neurogenic inflammation, and accumulating evidence suggests that it plays an important role in several central nervous system (CNS)-related disorders. TRPV1-specific positron emission tomography (PET) radioligands can serve as powerful tools in TRPV1-related (pre)clinical research and drug design. We have synthesized several potent TRPV1 antagonists and accompanying precursors for radiolabeling with carbon-11 or fluorine-18. The cinnamic acid derivative [(11)C]DVV24 and the aminoquinazoline [(18)F]DVV54 were successfully synthesized, and their biological behavior was studied. In addition, the in vivo behavior of a (123)I-labeled analogue of iodo-resiniferatoxin (I-RTX), a well-known TRPV1 antagonist, was evaluated. The binding affinities of DVV24 and DVV54 for human TRPV1 were 163 ± 28 and 171 ± 48 nM, respectively. [(11)C]DVV24, but not [(18)F]DVV54 or (123)I-RTX, showed retention in the trigeminal nerve, known to abundantly express TRPV1. Nevertheless, it appears that ligands with higher binding affinities will be required to allow in vivo imaging of TRPV1 via PET.

Furanocoumarins are a novel class of modulators for the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) channel.

Project description:Furanocoumarin imperatorin is the major active component of Angelica dahurica root extracts, widely used in traditional medicine to treat headache, toothache, and orbital eye pain. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms that may underlie the pain-relieving effects of the compound. We found that imperatorin significantly inhibited formalin- and capsaicin-induced nocifensive responses but did not alter baseline thermal withdrawal thresholds in the rat. We established that imperatorin is a weak agonist of TRPV1, a channel implicated in detecting several noxious stimuli, exhibiting a 50% effective concentration (EC50) of 12.6 ± 3.2 ?M. A specific TRPV1 antagonist, JNJ-17203212 (0.5 ?M), potently inhibited imperatorin-induced TRPV1 activation. Site-directed mutagenesis studies revealed that imperatorin most likely acted via a site adjacent to or overlapping with the TRPV1 capsaicin-binding site. TRPV1 recovery from desensitization was delayed in the presence of imperatorin. Conversely, imperatorin sensitized TRPV1 to acid activation but did not affect the current amplitude and/or the activation-inactivation properties of Na(v)1.7, a channel important for transmission of nociceptive information. Thus, our data indicate that furanocoumarins represent a novel group of TRPV1 modulators that may become important lead compounds in the drug discovery process aimed at developing new treatments for pain management.

20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is a novel activator of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel.

Project description:TRPV1 is a member of the transient receptor potential ion channel family and is gated by capsaicin, the pungent component of chili pepper. It is expressed predominantly in small diameter peripheral nerve fibers and is activated by noxious temperatures >42 °C. 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is a cytochrome P-450 4A/4F-derived metabolite of the membrane phospholipid arachidonic acid. It is a powerful vasoconstrictor and has structural similarities with other TRPV1 agonists, e.g. the hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid 12-HPETE, and we hypothesized that it may be an endogenous ligand for TRPV1 in sensory neurons innervating the vasculature. Here, we demonstrate that 20-HETE both activates and sensitizes mouse and human TRPV1, in a kinase-dependent manner, involving the residue Ser(502) in heterologously expressed hTRPV1, at physiologically relevant concentrations.

Novel Radiolabeled Vanilloid with Enhanced Specificity for Human Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1).

Project description:Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) has emerged as a promising therapeutic target. While radiolabeled resiniferatoxin (RTX) has provided a powerful tool for characterization of vanilloid binding to TRPV1, TRPV1 shows 20-fold weaker binding to the human TRPV1 than to the rodent TRPV1. We now describe a tritium radiolabeled synthetic vanilloid antagonist, 1-((2-(4-(methyl-[3H])piperidin-1-yl-4-[3H])-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl)methyl)-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-8-yl)urea ([3H]MPOU), that embodies improved absolute affinity for human TRPV1 and improved synthetic accessibility.

Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channel Subfamily V Member 4 Mediates Pyroptosis in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.

Project description:TRPV4, a calcium permeable cation selective channel, was found to be involved in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) through releasing ATP and IL-1β. Pyroptosis, a newly discovered pro-inflammatory cell death, was induced by cigarette smoke (CS) in airway epithelial cells (AECs). More recent studies indicated that blocking Ca2+ influx effectively inhibited pyroptosis. Therefore, we asked whether TRPV4 mediated CS-induced pyroptosis of AECs and hence participated in the pathogenesis of COPD. We found that pyroptosis and TRPV4 were upregulated in AECs from patients with COPD and long-term CS-exposed mice. Moreover, pharmacological inhibition or knockdown of TRPV4 function alleviated CS extract (CSE)-induced pyroptosis by inhibiting NACHT, LRP, PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome/activated caspase-1/gasdermin D pathway, decreasing the number of PI positive cells and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, decreasing the expression of pro- inflammatory interleukin gene (IL)-1β, IL-8, and IL-18 expression, as well as increasing anti-inflammatory gene expression [NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1), superoxide dismutase 2 (mitochondrial) (MNSOD), and catalase, (CAT)]. Moreover, pharmacological inhibition or knockdown of TRPV4 function significantly relieved CSE-induced mitochondrial damage including decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, mitochondrial fusion protein (OPA1, MFN2) expression, and increased mitochondrial fission protein (DRP1, MFF) expression. Taken together, these findings indicate that TRPV4 mediates AEC pyroptosis via NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD pathway in COPD.

Contribution of the putative inner-pore region to the gating of the transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 channel (TRPV1).

Project description:The transient receptor potential vanilloid receptor-1 (TRPV1) is a sensory neuron-specific nonselective cation channel that is gated in response to various noxious stimuli: pungent vanilloids, low pH, noxious heat, and depolarizing voltages. By its analogy to K+ channels, the S6 inner helix domain of TRPV1 (Y666-G683) is a prime candidate to form the most constricted region of the permeation pathway and might therefore encompass an as-yet-unmapped gate of the channel. Using alanine-scanning mutagenesis, we identified 16 of 17 residues, that when mutated affected the functionality of the TRPV1 channel with respect to at least one stimulus modality. T670A was the only substitution producing the wild-type channel phenotype, whereas Y666A and N676A were nonfunctional but present at the plasma membrane. The periodicity of the functional effects of mutations within the TRPV1 inner pore region is consistent with an alpha-helical structure in which T670 and A680 might play the roles of two bending "hinges."

Direct activation of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1(TRPV1) by diacylglycerol (DAG).

Project description:The capsaicin receptor, known as transient receptor potential channel vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1), is activated by a wide range of noxious stimulants and putative ligands such as capsaicin, heat, pH, anandamide, and phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC). However, the identity of endogenous activators for TRPV1 under physiological condition is still debated. Here, we report that diacylglycerol (DAG) directly activates TRPV1 channel in a membrane-delimited manner in rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), a membrane-permeable DAG analog, elicited intracellular Ca2+ transients, cationic currents and cobalt uptake that were blocked by TRPV1-selective antagonists, but not by inhibitors of PKC and DAG lipase in rat DRG neurons or HEK 293 cells heterologously expressing TRPV1. OAG induced responses were about one fifth of capsaicin induced signals, suggesting that OAG displays partial agonism. We also found that endogenously produced DAG can activate rat TRPV1 channels. Mutagenesis of rat TRPV1 revealed that DAG-binding site is at Y511, the same site for capsaicin binding, and PtdIns(4,5)P2binding site may not be critical for the activation of rat TRPV1 by DAG in heterologous system. We propose that DAG serves as an endogenous ligand for rat TRPV1, acting as an integrator of Gq/11-coupled receptors and receptor tyrosine kinases that are linked to phospholipase C.

Sex differences in mouse Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channel, Subfamily M, Member 8 expressing trigeminal ganglion neurons.

Project description:The detection of cool temperatures is thought to be mediated by primary afferent neurons that express the cool temperature sensing protein Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channel, Subfamily M, Member 8 (TRPM8). Using mice, this study tested the hypothesis that sex differences in sensitivity to cool temperatures were mediated by differences in neurons that express TRPM8. Ion currents from TRPM8 expressing trigeminal ganglion (TRG) neurons in females demonstrated larger hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated currents (Ih) than male neurons at both 30° and 18°C. Additionally, female neurons' voltage gated potassium currents (Ik) were suppressed by cooling, whereas male Ik was not significantly affected. At the holding potential tested (-60mV) TRPM8 currents were not visibly activated in either sex by cooling. Modeling the effect of Ih and Ik on membrane potentials demonstrated that at 30° the membrane potential in both sexes is unstable. At 18°, female TRPM8 TRG neurons develop a large oscillating pattern in their membrane potential, whereas male neurons become highly stable. These findings suggest that the differences in Ih and Ik in the TRPM8 TRG neurons of male and female mice likely leads to greater sensitivity of female mice to the cool temperature. This hypothesis was confirmed in an operant reward/conflict assay. Female mice contacted an 18°C surface for approximately half the time that males contacted the cool surface. At 33° and 10°C male and female mice contacted the stimulus for similar amounts of time. These data suggest that sex differences in the functioning of Ih and Ik in TRPM8 expressing primary afferent neurons leads to differences in cool temperature sensitivity.

Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channel Subfamily M Member 8 channels mediate the anti-inflammatory effects of eucalyptol.

Project description:Background and purposeEucalyptol (1,8-cineol), the major ingredient in the essential oil of eucalyptus leaves and other medicinal plants, has long been known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Eucalyptol interacts with the TRP cation channels among other targets, but it is unclear which of these mediates its anti-inflammatory effects.Experimental approachEffects of eucalyptol were compared in wild-type and TRPM8 channel-deficient mice in two different models: footpad inflammation elicited by complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) and pulmonary inflammation following administration of LPS. Oedema formation, behavioural inflammatory pain responses, leukocyte infiltration, enzyme activities and cytokine and chemokine levels were measured.Key resultsIn the CFA model, eucalyptol strongly attenuated oedema and mechanical allodynia and reduced levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6), effects comparable with those of ibuprofen. In the LPS model of pulmonary inflammation, eucalyptol treatment diminished leukocyte infiltration, myeloperoxidase activity and production of TNF-α, IL-1β, IFN-γ and IL-6. Genetic deletion of TRPM8 channels abolished the anti-inflammatory effects of eucalyptol in both models. Eucalyptol was at least sixfold more potent on human, than on mouse TRPM8 channels. A metabolite of eucalyptol, 2-hydroxy-1,8-cineol, also activated human TRPM8 channels.Conclusion and implicationsAmong the pharmacological targets of eucalyptol, TRPM8 channels were essential for its anti-inflammatory effects in mice. Human TRPM8 channels are more sensitive to eucalyptol than rodent TRPM8 channels explaining the higher potency of eucalyptol in humans. Metabolites of eucalyptol could contribute to its anti-inflammatory effects. The development of more potent and selective TRPM8 agonists may yield novel anti-inflammatory agents.

Intact microtubules preserve transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) functionality through receptor binding.

Project description:The transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1) is a protein currently under scrutiny as a pharmacological target for pain management therapies. Recently, the role of TRPV1-microtubule interaction in transducing nociception stimuli to cells by cytoskeletal rearrangement was proposed. In this work, we investigate TRPV1-microtubule interaction in living cells under the resting or activated state of TRPV1, as well as in presence of structurally intact or depolymerized cytoskeletal microtubules. We combined a toolbox of high resolution/high sensitivity fluorescence imaging techniques (such as FRET, correlation spectroscopy, and fluorescence anisotropy) to monitor TRPV1 aggregation status, membrane mobility, and interaction with microtubules. We found that TRPV1 is a dimeric membrane protein characterized by two populations with different diffusion properties in basal condition. After stimulation with resiniferatoxin, TRPV1 dimers tetramerize. The tetramers and the slower population of TRPV1 dimers bind dynamically to intact microtubules but not to tubulin dimers. Upon microtubule disassembly, the interaction with TRPV1 is lost thereby inducing receptor self-aggregation with partial loss of functionality. Intact microtubules play an essential role in maintaining TRPV1 functionality toward activation stimuli. This previously undisclosed property mirrors the recently reported role of TRPV1 in modulating microtubule assembly/disassembly and suggests the participation of these two players in a feedback cycle linking nociception and cytoskeletal remodeling.
