Abstract
The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) is densely expressed in spinal sensory neurons as well as in cranial sensory neurons, including their central terminal endings. Recent work in the less familiar cranial sensory neurons, despite their many similarities with spinal sensory neurons, suggest that TRPV1 acts as a calcium channel to release a discrete population of synaptic vesicles. The modular and independent regulation of release offers new questions about nanodomain organization of release and selective actions of G protein–coupled receptors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The imbalance between bone resorption and formation is the basic mechanism underlying osteoporosis in the elderly. Osteogenesis is the differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) into osteoblasts. Sirtuin6 (SIRT6) regulates various biological functions, including differentiation. Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1) is a non-selective cation channel that can be activated by physical and chemical stimulation. However, experimental data supporting the role of SIRT6 in osteogenic differentiation (OD) of hMSCs are lacking. MATERIAL AND METHODS Differentiation of hMSCs was induced. The expressions of SIRT6, TRPV1, and CGRP were detected by Q-PCR, Western blot, and ELISA, respectively. SIRT6 was overexpressed in hMSCs by transfection. ALP activity and Alizarin Red staining were utilized to detect the effect of SIRT6 on hMSC OD. Then, capsaicin and capsazepine, the TRPV1 agonist and antagonist, respectively, were administrated to assess the role of TRPV1. RESULTS SIRT6 expression was downregulated during hMSC differentiation. SIRT6 overexpression was accompanied by reduced expression of specific genes and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in osteoblasts. Furthermore, TRPV1 channel was also reduced by SIRT6 overexpression via ubiquitinating TRPV1. Capsaicin was utilized in SIRT6-overexpressed cells. Capsaicin therapy counteracted the effect of SIRT6 overexpression on OD, and markedly decreased OD. CONCLUSIONS The SIRT6-TRPV1-CGRP signal axis is the key to regulating OD in hMSCs, which could be a potential therapeutic target for osteoporosis and bone loss-related diseases.

Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20184471. [PMID: 31510092 PMCID: PMC6769885 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20184471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2019] [Revised: 09/05/2019] [Accepted: 09/09/2019] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
There is accumulating evidence supporting electroacupuncture’s (EA) therapeutic effects. In mice, local EA reliably attenuates inflammatory pain and increases the transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1 (TRPV1). However, the effect of distal acupoint EA on pain control has rarely been studied. We used a mouse model to investigate the analgesic effect of distal EA by measuring TRPV1 expression in the brain. Complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) was injected into mice’s hind paws to induce inflammatory pain. The EA-treated group received EA at the LI4 acupoint on the bilateral forefeet on the second and the third days, whereas the control group underwent sham manipulation. Mechanical and thermal pain behavior tests showed that the EA-treated group experienced inflammatory pain alleviation immediately after EA, which did not occur in the sham group. Additionally, following CFA injection, the expression of TRPV1-associated molecules such as phosphorylated protein kinase A (pPKA), extracelluar signal-regulated kinase (pERK), and cAMP-response-element-binding protein (pCREB) increased in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the hypothalamus but decreased in the periaqueductal gray (PAG) area. These changes were significantly attenuated by EA but not sham EA. Our results show an analgesic effect of distal EA, which is based on the traditional Chinese medicine theory. The mechanism underlying this analgesic effect involves TRPV1 in the PFC, the hypothalamus, and the PAG. These novel findings are relevant for the evaluation and the treatment of clinical inflammatory pain syndrome.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic metabolic disease caused by a long-term imbalance between energy intake and expenditure. The discovery of three different shades of adipose tissues has implications in terms of understanding the pathogenesis and potential interventions for obesity and its related complications. Fat browning, as well as activation of brown adipocytes and new beige adipocytes differentiated from adipogenic progenitor cells, are emerging as interesting and promising methods to curb obesity because of their unique capacity to upregulate non-shivering thermogenesis. This capacity is due to catabolism of stored energy to generate heat through the best characterized thermogenic effector uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). A variety of phytochemicals have been shown in the literature to contribute to thermogenesis by acting as chemical uncouplers, UCP1 inducers or regulators of fat differentiation and browning. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms and strategies for targeting adipose-mediated thermogenesis and highlight the role of phytochemicals in targeting adipose thermogenesis to fight against obesity. We also discuss proposed targets for how these phytochemical molecules promote BAT activity, WAT browning and beige cell development, thereby offering novel insights into interventional strategies of how phytochemicals may help prevent and manage obesity via adipose thermogenesis.

Abstract
The regulation of body temperature is one of the most critical functions of the nervous system. Here we review our current understanding of thermoregulation in mammals. We outline the molecules and cells that measure body temperature in the periphery, the neural pathways that communicate this information to the brain, and the central circuits that coordinate the homeostatic response. We also discuss some of the key unresolved issues in this field, including the following: the role of temperature sensing in the brain, the molecular identity of the warm sensor, the central representation of the labeled line for cold, and the neural substrates of thermoregulatory behavior. We suggest that approaches for molecularly defined circuit analysis will provide new insight into these topics in the near future.

Abstract
Introduction: TRPV1 receptors play a significant physiological role. To study pharmacological activity of new agonists and antagonists is important for the development of new drugs. This paper reports on the features of polypeptide antagonists of TRPV1 based on in vivo data.
Materials and methods: The study was performed on 250 mature white ICR male mice weighing 25–30 g. Tests were conducted to evaluate the pharmacological activity and biological properties of APHC1-3 and a hybrid polypeptide A13 in thermal pain,, inflammation and body temperature tests.
Results and discussion: APHC1-3 polypeptides showed significant antinociceptive and analgesic activity in the dose range of 0.01–0.1 mg/kg, without causing hyperthermia. A single substitution of the aspartic acid residue of АРНС1 polypeptide at position 23 by transferring one asparagine residue from the cognate peptide АРНС3 led to a significant change in the properties of the molecule. A new polypeptide A13 did not alter the thermal sensitivity of the mice, but showed the most significant analgesic activity in the acid-induced pain model, unlike АРНС1. A13 inhibits TRPV1 and affects body temperature as a classic antagonist of this receptor.
Conclusion: Antagonistic properties of A13 became different from the properties of both initial analgesic polypeptides. Polypeptides APHC1-3 can be referred to as a new class of modulators of TRPV1, which produce a pronounced analgesic effect without hyperthermia.

Abstract
AIMS We aimed to explore the role of SIRT6 in Insulin resistance (IR). We are the first to investigate on this crucial relationship in an obese mouse model fed on a high-fat diet (HFD) and an IR model based on the mature 3T3-L1-derived adipocytes. MAIN METHODS Western blotting (WB) and qPCR analysis were performed to evaluate the SIRT6 protein and mRNA expressions in HFD mice as well as IR cells. Injection of adenovirus encoding SIRT6 gene in HFD mice and transfection of pcDNA3-SIRT6 in IR cells increased the glucose uptake levels and insulin sensitivity. KEY FINDINGS The positive regulatory effects of SIRT6 on transient receptor potential vallinoid 1 (TRPV1) in IR cells were confirmed by a mechanistic investigation at both protein and mRNA levels. Further, the overexpression of SIRT6 was found to activate the TRPV1/Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) signaling and upregulate the glucose transporter (GLUT) expression at protein and mRNA levels. Additionally, administration of the TRPV1 antagonist, SB-705498 repressed the insulin sensitivity upregulated by SIRT6 overexpression accompanied with the inhibition of CGRP and decrease in GLUT proportions. The results also showed that TRPV1 agonist, Capsaicin boosted the SIRT6-induced glucose uptake, CGRP production, and GLUT4 levels. SIGNIFICANCE Overall, SIRT6 was concluded to be involved in the TRPV1-CGRP-GLUT4 signaling axis thus leading to increased glucose uptake and decreased IR in HFD mice and 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Therefore, in terms of obesity and diabetes, SIRT6 is a novel candidate for treating IR.

Abstract
Targeted temperature management, or therapeutic hypothermia, is a potent neuroprotective approach after ischemic brain injury. Hypothermia should be induced as soon as possible after the onset of acute stroke to assure better outcomes. Accordingly, drugs with a fast-acting hypothermic effect sustainable through the period of emergency transportation to hospital would have clinical advantages. Activation of the transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) can induce hypothermia. Our immunohistochemical investigations confirmed that TRPV1 was distributed to perivascular and periventricular regions of the rat brain, where TRPV1 can be easily detected by TRPV1 agonists. An endogenous TRPV1 selective agonist, N-oleoyldopamine (OLDA), and a synthetic antagonist, AMG 9810, were injected intraperitoneally into healthy adult male Wister rats, and brain and core temperatures and gross motor activities were monitored. Comparison with baseline temperatures showed that TRPV1 injection immediately induced mild hypothermia (p < 0.05 in brain and p < 0.01 in body), and AMG 9810 induced immediate mild hyperthermia (not significant). However, the OLDA-induced hypothermia did not decrease lesion volume after middle carotid artery occlusion in rats. Relative to vehicle, OLDA yielded poorer outcomes and AMG 9810 yielded better outcomes in neurological scores and lesion size. Our study showed that, as an agonist of TRPV1, OLDA has suitable hypothermia-inducing properties, but did not decrease lesion volume. Therefore, the search for novel TRPV1 agonists and/or antagonists providing hypothermia and neuroprotection should continue. Further investigations should also target OLDA-induced transient hypothermia combined with long-term hypothermia maintenance with surface cooling, which mimics the anticipated clinical use of this class of drug.

Abstract
Maintenance of mammalian core body temperature within a narrow range is a fundamental homeostatic process to optimize cellular and tissue function, and to improve survival in adverse thermal environments. Body temperature is maintained during a broad range of environmental and physiological challenges by central nervous system circuits that process thermal afferent inputs from the skin and the body core to control the activity of thermoeffectors. These include thermoregulatory behaviors, cutaneous vasomotion (vasoconstriction and, in humans, active vasodilation), thermogenesis (shivering and brown adipose tissue), evaporative heat loss (salivary spreading in rodents, and human sweating). This review provides an overview of the central nervous system circuits for thermoregulatory reflex regulation of thermoeffectors.

Abstract
Receptors of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channels superfamily are expressed in many tissues and have different physiological functions. However, there are few studies investigating the role of these channels in cardiorespiratory control in mammals. We assessed the role of central and peripheral TRPV1 receptors in the cardiorespiratory responses to hypoxia (10% O2) and hypercapnia (7% CO2) by measuring pulmonary ventilation (V˙E), heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and body temperature (Tb) of male Wistar rats before and after intraperitoneal (AMG9810 [2.85 µg/kg, 1 mL/kg]) or intracebroventricular (AMG9810 [2.85 µg/kg, 1 µL] or AMG7905 [28.5 μg/kg, 1 µL]) injections of TRPV1 antagonists. Central or peripheral injection of TRPV1 antagonists did not change cardiorespiratory parameters or Tb during room air and hypercapnic conditions. However, the hypoxic ventilatory response was exaggerated by both central and peripheral injection of AMG9810. In addition, the peripheral antagonist blunted the drop in Tb induced by hypoxia. Therefore, the current data provide evidence that TRPV1 channels exert an inhibitory modulation on the hypoxic drive to breathe and stimulate the Tb reduction during hypoxia.

Abstract
Capsaicin is known to activate heat receptor TRPV1 and induce changes in thermoregulatory processes of mammals. However, the mechanism by which capsaicin induces thermoregulatory responses in invertebrates is unknown. Insect thermoreceptors belong to the TRP receptors family, and are known to be activated not only by temperature, but also by other stimuli. In the following study, we evaluated the effects of different ligands that have been shown to activate (allyl isothiocyanate) or inhibit (camphor) heat receptors, as well as, activate (camphor) or inhibit (menthol and thymol) cold receptors in insects. Moreover, we decided to determine the effect of agonist (capsaicin) and antagonist (capsazepine) of mammalian heat receptor on the American cockroach's thermoregulatory processes. We observed that capsaicin induced the decrease of the head temperature of immobilized cockroaches. Moreover, the examined ligands induced preference for colder environments, when insects were allowed to choose the ambient temperature. Camphor exposure resulted in a preference for warm environments, but the changes in body temperature were not observed. The results suggest that capsaicin acts on the heat receptor in cockroaches and that TRP receptors are involved in cockroaches' thermosensation.

Abstract
Maintenance of a homeostatic body core temperature is a critical brain function accomplished by a central neural network. This orchestrates a complex behavioral and autonomic repertoire in response to environmental temperature challenges or declining energy homeostasis and in support of immune responses and many behavioral states. This review summarizes the anatomical, neurotransmitter, and functional relationships within the central neural network that controls the principal thermoeffectors: cutaneous vasoconstriction regulating heat loss and shivering and brown adipose tissue for heat production. The core thermoregulatory network regulating these thermoeffectors consists of parallel but distinct central efferent pathways that share a common peripheral thermal sensory input. Delineating the neural circuit mechanism underlying central thermoregulation provides a useful platform for exploring its functional organization, elucidating the molecular underpinnings of its neuronal interactions, and discovering novel therapeutic approaches to modulating body temperature and energy homeostasis.

Abstract
There is evidence that central cholinergic stimulation increases heat dissipation in normotensive rats besides causing changes on the cardiovascular system via modulation of baroreceptors activity. However, the contribution of the central cholinergic system on thermoregulatory responses and its relationship with cardiovascular adjustments in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), an animal model of reduced baroreceptor sensitivity and thermoregulatory deficit, has not been completely clarified. Therefore, the aim of this study was to verify the involvement of the central cholinergic system in cardiovascular and thermoregulatory adjustments in SHRs. Male Wistar rats (n = 17) and SHRs (n = 17) were implanted with an intracerebroventricular cannula for injections of 2 µL of physostigmine (phy) or saline solution. Tail temperature (Ttail), internal body temperature (Tint), systolic arterial pressure (SAP), heart rate (HR) and metabolic rate were registered during 60 min while the animals remained at rest after randomly receiving the injections. The variability of the SAP and the HR was estimated by the fast Fourier transform. Phy treatment began a succession of cardiovascular and thermoregulatory responses that resulted in increased SAP, reduced HR and increased Ttail in both Wistar and SHRs groups. The magnitude of these effects seems to be more intense in SHRs, since the improvement of heat dissipation reflected in Tint. Taken together, these results provide evidence that hypertensive rats present greater cardiovascular and thermoregulatory responses than normotensive rats after central cholinergic stimulation.

TRP Channel Involvement in Salivary Glands-Some Good, Some Bad. Cells 2018; 7:cells7070074. [PMID: 29997338 PMCID: PMC6070825 DOI: 10.3390/cells7070074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2018] [Revised: 07/06/2018] [Accepted: 07/08/2018] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Salivary glands secrete saliva, a mixture of proteins and fluids, which plays an extremely important role in the maintenance of oral health. Loss of salivary secretion causes a dry mouth condition, xerostomia, which has numerous deleterious consequences including opportunistic infections within the oral cavity, difficulties in eating and swallowing food, and problems with speech. Secretion of fluid by salivary glands is stimulated by activation of specific receptors on acinar cell plasma membrane and is mediated by an increase in cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i). The increase in [Ca2+]i regulates a number of ion channels and transporters that are required for establishing an osmotic gradient that drives water flow via aquaporin water channels in the apical membrane. The Store-Operated Ca2+ Entry (SOCE) mechanism, which is regulated in response to depletion of ER-Ca2+, determines the sustained [Ca2+]i increase required for prolonged fluid secretion. Core components of SOCE in salivary gland acinar cells are Orai1 and STIM1. In addition, TRPC1 is a major and non-redundant contributor to SOCE and fluid secretion in salivary gland acinar and ductal cells. Other TRP channels that contribute to salivary flow are TRPC3 and TRPV4, while presence of others, including TRPM8, TRPA1, TRPV1, and TRPV3, have been identified in the gland. Loss of salivary gland function leads to dry mouth conditions, or xerostomia, which is clinically seen in patients who have undergone radiation treatment for head-and-neck cancers, and those with the autoimmune exocrinopathy, Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS). TRPM2 is a unique TRP channel that acts as a sensor for intracellular ROS. We will discuss recent studies reported by us that demonstrate a key role for TRPM2 in radiation-induced salivary gland dysfunction. Further, there is increasing evidence that TRPM2 might be involved in inflammatory processes. These interesting findings point to the possible involvement of TRPM2 in Sjögren’s Syndrome, although further studies will be required to identify the exact role of TRPM2 in this disease.

Abstract
AIM Thermoregulatory side effects hinder the development of transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) antagonists as new painkillers. While many antagonists cause hyperthermia, a well-studied effect, some cause hypothermia. The mechanisms of this hypothermia are unknown and were studied herein. METHODS Two hypothermia-inducing TRPV1 antagonists, the newly synthesized A-1165901 and the known AMG7905, were used in physiological experiments in rats and mice. Their pharmacological profiles against rat TRPV1 were studied in vitro. RESULTS Administered peripherally, A-1165901 caused hypothermia in rats by either triggering tail-skin vasodilation (at thermoneutrality) or inhibiting thermogenesis (in the cold). A-1165901-induced hypothermia did not occur in rats with desensitized (by an intraperitoneal dose of the TRPV1 agonist resiniferatoxin) sensory abdominal nerves. The hypothermic responses to A-1165901 and AMG7905 (administered intragastrically or intraperitoneally) were absent in Trpv1-/- mice, even though both compounds evoked pronounced hypothermia in Trpv1+/+ mice. In vitro, both A-1165901 and AMG7905 potently potentiated TRPV1 activation by protons, while potently blocking channel activation by capsaicin. CONCLUSION TRPV1 antagonists cause hypothermia by an on-target action: on TRPV1 channels on abdominal sensory nerves. These channels are tonically activated by protons and drive the reflectory inhibition of thermogenesis and tail-skin vasoconstriction. Those TRPV1 antagonists that cause hypothermia further inhibit these cold defences, thus decreasing body temperature. SIGNIFICANCE TRPV1 antagonists (of capsaicin activation) are highly unusual in that they can cause both hyper- and hypothermia by modulating the same mechanism. For drug development, this means that both side effects can be dealt with simultaneously, by minimizing these compounds' interference with TRPV1 activation by protons.

Abstract
Control of chronic pain is frequently inadequate and/or associated with intolerable adverse effects, prompting a frantic search for new therapeutics and new therapeutic targets. Nearly two decades of preclinical and clinical research supports the involvement of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in temperature perception, nociception and sensitization. Although there has been considerable excitement around the therapeutic potential of this channel family since the cloning and identification of TRPV1 cation channels as the capsaicin receptor more than 20 years ago, only modulators of a few channels have been tested clinically. TRPV1 channel antagonists have suffered from side effects related to the channel's role in temperature sensation; however, high dose formulations of capsaicin have reached the market and shown therapeutic utility. A number of potent, small molecule antagonists of TRPA1 channels have recently advanced into clinical trials for the treatment of inflammatory and neuropathic pain, and TRPM8 antagonists are following closely behind for cold allodynia. TRPV3, TRPV4, TRPM2 and TRPM3 channels have also been of significant interest. This review discusses the preclinical promise and status of novel analgesic agents that target TRP channels and the challenges that these compounds may face in development and clinical practice.

Abstract
The sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) to brown adipose tissue (BAT) regulates BAT thermogenesis to defend body temperature in cold environments or to produce fever during immune responses. The vagus nerve contains afferents that inhibit the BAT SNA and BAT thermogenesis evoked by skin cooling. We sought to determine whether activation of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channels in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), which are prominently expressed in unmyelinated vagal afferents, would affect cold-evoked BAT thermogenesis, cardiovascular parameters, or their vagal afferent-evoked responses. In urethane-chloralose-anesthetized rats, during skin cooling, nanoinjection of the TRPV1-agonist resiniferatoxin in NTS decreased BAT SNA (from 695 ± 195% of baseline during cooling to 103 ± 8% of baseline after resiniferatoxin), BAT temperature (-0.8 ± 0.1°C), expired CO2 (-0.3 ± 0.04%), mean arterial pressure (MAP; -20 ± 5 mmHg), and heart rate (-44 ± 11 beats/min). Pretreatment of NTS with the TRPV1 antagonist capsazepine prevented these resiniferatoxin-mediated effects. Intravenous injection of the TRPV1 agonist dihydrocapsaicin also decreased all the measured variables (except MAP). Bilateral cervical or subdiaphragmatic vagotomy attenuated the decreases in BAT SNA and thermogenesis evoked by nanoinjection of resiniferatoxin in NTS but did not prevent the decreases in BAT SNA and BAT thermogenesis evoked by intravenous dihydrocapsaicin. We conclude that activation of TRPV1 channels in the NTS of vagus nerve intact rats inhibits BAT SNA and decreases BAT metabolism, blood pressure, and heart rate. In contrast, the inhibition of BAT thermogenesis following systemic administration of dihydrocapsaicin does not require vagal afferent activity, consistent with a nonvagal pathway through which systemic TRPV1 agonists can inhibit BAT thermogenesis.

Abstract
Some natural alkaloids, e.g. capsaicin and camphor, are known to induce a desensitization state, causing insensitivity to pain or noxious temperatures in mammals by acting on TRP receptors. Our research, for the first time, demonstrated that a phenomenon of pharmacological blockade of heat sensitivity may operate in American cockroach, Periplaneta americana (L.). We studied the escape reaction time from 50°C for American cockroaches exposed to multiple doses of different drugs affecting thermo-TRP. Capsaicin, capsazepine, and camphor induced significant changes in time spent at noxious ambient temperatures. Moreover, we showed that behavioral thermoregulation in normal temperature ranges (10-40°C) is altered in treated cockroaches, which displayed a preference for warmer regions compared to non-treated insects. We also measured the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and catalase activity to exclude the secondary effects of the drugs on these processes. Our results demonstrated that increase in time spent at 50°C (five versus one trial at a heat plate) induced oxidative stress, but only in control and vehicle-treated groups. In capsaicin, capsazepine, menthol, camphor and AITC-treated cockroaches the number of exposures to heat had no effect on the levels of MDA. Additionally, none of the tested compounds affected catalase activity. Our results demonstrate suppression of the heat sensitivity by repeated capsazepine, camphor and capsaicin administration in the American cockroach.

Abstract
The mammalian skin is innervated by cold-sensitive afferent neurons. These neurons exhibit ongoing activity at temperatures between ~10 and 42°C, are activated by innocuous cold stimuli, inhibited by warm stimuli and are mechanoinsensitive. Their axons are small-diameter myelinated (Aδ-) fibers in primates and unmyelinated (C-) fibers in nonprimate mammals. The mammalian skin is innervated by warm-sensitive afferent neurons. The density of innervation by these neurons is lower than that by cold-sensitive afferents. They exhibit ongoing activity between ~38 and 48°C, are activated by warm stimuli, inhibited by cold stimuli, and are mechanoinsensitive. Their axons are unmyelinated (C-) fibers. Cold-sensitive unmyelinated afferent neurons exhibit prominent cold sensitivity of their axons (in rats). The discharge pattern of the cutaneous cold-sensitive afferent neurons is fully preserved after nerve injury. Ongoing impulse activity and cold-evoked impulses originate ectopically at the nerve injury site. Deep somatic tissues and viscera are innervated by thermosensitive afferent neurons. Most are warm-sensitive and mechanoinsensitive and have unmyelinated axons. These afferent neurons have only rarely and incompletely been studied, e.g., in the upper gastrointestinal tract, the liver (both vagal afferents), the dorsal abdominal wall, and the skeletal muscle. Spinal cord warm sensitivity may be mediated by cutaneous afferent neurons with unmyelinated axons that are excited by spinal cord warming.

Abstract
Heat exchange processes between the body and the environment are introduced. The definition of the thermoneutral zone as the ambient temperature range within which body temperature (Tb) regulation is achieved only by nonevaporative processes is explained. Thermoreceptors, thermoregulatory effectors (both physiologic and behavioral), and neural pathways and Tb signals that connect receptors and effectors into a thermoregulation system are reviewed. A classification of thermoeffectors is proposed. A consensus concept is presented, according to which the thermoregulation system is organized as a dynamic federation of independent thermoeffector loops. While the activity of each effector is driven by a unique combination of deep (core) and superficial (shell) Tbs, the regulated variable of the system can be viewed as a spatially distributed Tb with a heavily represented core and a lightly represented shell. Core Tb is the main feedback; it is always negative. Shell Tbs (mostly of the hairy skin) represent the auxiliary feedback, which can be negative or positive, and which decreases the system's response time and load error. Signals from the glabrous (nonhairy) skin about the temperature of objects in the environment serve as feedforward signals for various behaviors. Physiologic effectors do not use feedforward signals. The system interacts with other homeostatic systems by "meshing" with their loops. Coordination between different thermoeffectors is achieved through the common controlled variable, Tb. The term balance point (not set point) is used for a regulated level of Tb. The term interthreshold zone is used for a Tb range in which no effectors are activated. Thermoregulatory states are classified, based on whether: Tb is increased (hyperthermia) or decreased (hypothermia); the interthreshold zone is narrow (homeothermic type of regulation) or wide (poikilothermic type); and the balance point is increased (fever) or decreased (anapyrexia). During fever, thermoregulation can be either homeothermic or poikilothermic; anapyrexia is always a poikilothermic state. The biologic significance of poikilothermic states is discussed. As an example of practical applications of the concept presented, thermopharmacology is reviewed. Thermopharmacology uses drugs to modulate specific temperature signals at the level of a thermoreceptor (transient receptor potential channel).

Abstract
Fever depends on a complex physiologic response to infectious agents and other conditions. To alleviate fever, many medicinal agents have been developed over a century of trying to improve upon aspirin, which was determined to work by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis. We present the process of fever induction through prostaglandin synthesis and discuss the development of pharmaceuticals that target enzymes and receptors involved in prostaglandin-mediated signal transduction, including prostaglandin H2 synthase (also known as cyclooxygenase), phospholipase A2, microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase-1, EP receptors, and transient potential cation channel subfamily V member 1. Clinical use of established antipyretics will be discussed as well as medicinal agents under clinical trials and future research.

Abstract
Humans have inherited complex neural circuits which drive behavioral, somatic, and autonomic thermoregulatory responses to defend their body temperature. While they are well adapted to dissipate heat in warm climates, they have a reduced capacity to preserve it in cold environments. Consequently, heat production is critical to defending their core temperature. As in other large mammals, skeletal muscles are the primary source of heat production recruited in cold-exposed humans. This is achieved voluntarily in the form of contractions from exercising muscles or involuntarily in the form of contractions from shivering muscles and the recruitment of nonshivering mechanisms. This review describes our current understanding of shivering and nonshivering thermogenesis in skeletal muscles, from the neural circuitry driving their recruitment to the metabolic substrates that fuel them. The presence of these heat-producing mechanisms can be measured in vivo by combining indirect respiratory calorimetry with electromyography or biomedical imaging modalities. Indeed, much of what is known regarding shivering in humans and other animal models stems from studies performed using these methods combined with in situ and in vivo neurologic techniques. More recent investigations have focused on understanding the metabolic processes that produce the heat from both contracting and noncontracting mechanisms. With the growing interest in the potential therapeutic benefits of shivering and nonshivering skeletal muscle to counter the effects of neuromuscular, cardiovascular, and metabolic diseases, we expect this field to continue its growth in the coming years.

Abstract
In this study, we aimed to evaluate the influence of daily repeated menthol treatments on body mass and thermoregulatory effectors in Wistar rats, considering that menthol is a transient receptor potential melastatin 8 channel agonist that mimics cold sensation and activates thermoregulatory cold-defense mechanisms in mammals, promoting hyperthermia and increasing energy expenditure, and has been suggested as an anti-obesity drug. Male Wistar rats were topically treated with 5% menthol for 3 or 9 consecutive days while body mass, food intake, abdominal temperature, metabolism, cutaneous vasoconstriction, and thermal preference were measured. Menthol promoted hyperthermia on all days of treatment, due to an increase in metabolism and cutaneous vasoconstriction, without affecting food intake, resulting in less mass gain in menthol-hyperthermic animals. As the treatment progressed, the menthol-induced increases in metabolism and hyperthermia were attenuated but not abolished. Moreover, cutaneous vasoconstriction was potentiated, and an increase in the warmth-seeking behavior was induced. Taken together, the results suggest that, although changes occur in thermoeffector recruitment during the course of short-term treatment, menthol is a promising drug to prevent body mass gain. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Menthol produces a persistent increase in energy expenditure, with limited compensatory thermoregulatory adaptations and, most unexpectedly, without affecting food intake. Thus short-term treatment with menthol results in less mass gain in treated animals compared with controls. Our results suggest that menthol is a promising drug for the prevention of obesity.

Abstract
Hypothermia shows promise for stroke neuroprotection, but current cooling strategies cause undesirable side effects that limit their clinical applications. Increasing efforts have focused on pharmacological hypothermia as a treatment option for stroke. Previously, we showed that activation of a thermoregulatory ion channel, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), by dihydrocapsaicin (DHC) produces reliable hypothermia. In this study, we investigate the effects of TRPV1-mediated hypothermia by DHC on long-term ischemic stroke injury and functional outcome. Hypothermia initiated at 3.5 hours after stroke significantly reduced primary cortical injury. Interestingly, hypothermia by DHC also significantly reduced secondary thalamic injury, as DHC-treated stroke mice exhibited 53% smaller thalamic lesion size. DHC-treated stroke mice further demonstrated decreased neuronal loss and astrogliosis in the thalamus and less thalamic fiber loss by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Importantly, a single 8 hour treatment of hypothermia by DHC after stroke provided long-term improvement in functional outcome, as DHC-treated mice exhibited improved behavioral recovery at one month post-stroke. These findings indicate that TRPV1-mediated hypothermia is effective in reducing both primary cortical injury and remote secondary thalamic injury, and a single treatment can produce persistent effects on functional recovery. These data highlight the therapeutic potential for TRPV1 agonism for stroke treatment.

Abstract
This single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, sequential-group phase 1 study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of mavatrep (JNJ-39439335), a transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 antagonist, in healthy Japanese and caucasian subjects. In part 1, a single-ascending-dose study, 50 subjects (25 each healthy Japanese and caucasians) were enrolled and received a single oral dose of 10, 25, or 50 mg mavatrep. Caucasian subjects were matched to Japanese subjects with respect to age (±5 years) and body mass index (±5 kg/m2 ). In part 2, a multiple-ascending-dose study, 36 Japanese subjects were enrolled and received once-daily oral doses of 10, 25, or 50 mg of mavatrep for 21 days. The single-dose PK of mavatrep and its metabolites was similar in the Japanese and caucasian subjects after adjustment of body weight. Following multiple dosing in Japanese subjects, a steady-state condition was reached in approximately 14 days. M2 and M3 are major circulating metabolites with mean exposure > 10% of mavatrep. Nonrenal clearance was the major route of elimination for mavatrep, M2, and M3. Mavatrep exhibited a long half-life, ranging from 68 to 101 and 82-130 hours for Japanese and caucasian subjects, respectively. After single and multiple dosing, mavatrep was well tolerated. The most common adverse events observed were thermohypoesthesia, feeling cold, chills, and feeling hot. Mavatrep and its metabolites exhibited similar PK profiles after single ascending doses in healthy Japanese and caucasian men.

Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 Antagonists Prevent Anesthesia-induced Hypothermia and Decrease Postincisional Opioid Dose Requirements in Rodents. Anesthesiology 2017; 127:813-823.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Intraoperative hypothermia and postoperative pain control are two important clinical challenges in anesthesiology. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 has been implicated both in thermoregulation and pain. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 antagonists were not advanced as analgesics in humans in part due to a side effect of hyperthermia. This study tested the hypothesis that a single, preincision injection of a transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 antagonist could prevent anesthesia-induced hypothermia and decrease the opioid requirement for postsurgical hypersensitivity.
Methods
General anesthesia was induced in rats and mice with either isoflurane or ketamine, and animals were treated with transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 antagonists (AMG 517 or ABT-102). The core body temperature and oxygen consumption were monitored during anesthesia and the postanesthesia period. The effect of preincision AMG 517 on morphine-induced reversal of postincision hyperalgesia was evaluated in rats.
Results
AMG 517 and ABT-102 dose-dependently prevented general anesthesia-induced hypothermia (mean ± SD; from 1.5° ± 0.1°C to 0.1° ± 0.1°C decrease; P < 0.001) without causing hyperthermia in the postanesthesia phase. Isoflurane-induced hypothermia was prevented by AMG 517 in wild-type but not in transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 knockout mice (n = 7 to 11 per group). The prevention of anesthesia-induced hypothermia by AMG 517 involved activation of brown fat thermogenesis with a possible contribution from changes in vasomotor tone. A single preincision dose of AMG 517 decreased the morphine dose requirement for the reduction of postincision thermal (12.6 ± 3.0 vs. 15.6 ± 1.0 s) and mechanical (6.8 ± 3.0 vs. 9.5 ± 3.0 g) withdrawal latencies.
Conclusions
These studies demonstrate that transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 antagonists prevent anesthesia-induced hypothermia and decrease opioid dose requirements for the reduction of postincisional hypersensitivity in rodents.

Reactive metabolites of acetaminophen activate and sensitize the capsaicin receptor TRPV1. Sci Rep 2017; 7:12775.

Abstract
The irritant receptor TRPA1 was suggested to mediate analgesic, antipyretic but also pro-inflammatory effects of the non-opioid analgesic acetaminophen, presumably due to channel activation by the reactive metabolites parabenzoquinone (pBQ) and N-acetyl-parabenzoquinonimine (NAPQI). Here we explored the effects of these metabolites on the capsaicin receptor TRPV1, another redox-sensitive ion channel expressed in sensory neurons. Both pBQ and NAPQI, but not acetaminophen irreversibly activated and sensitized recombinant human and rodent TRPV1 channels expressed in HEK 293 cells. The reducing agents dithiothreitol and N-acetylcysteine abolished these effects when co-applied with the metabolites, and both pBQ and NAPQI failed to gate TRPV1 following substitution of the intracellular cysteines 158, 391 and 767. NAPQI evoked a TRPV1-dependent increase in intracellular calcium and a potentiation of heat-evoked currents in mouse spinal sensory neurons. Although TRPV1 is expressed in mouse hepatocytes, inhibition of TRPV1 did not alleviate acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity. Finally, intracutaneously applied NAPQI evoked burning pain and neurogenic inflammation in human volunteers. Our data demonstrate that pBQ and NAQPI activate and sensitize TRPV1 by interacting with intracellular cysteines. While TRPV1 does not seem to mediate acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity, our data identify TRPV1 as a target of acetaminophen with a potential relevance for acetaminophen-induced analgesia, antipyresia and inflammation.

Abstract
An experimental set-up was designed to observe whether adding dexmedetomidine to QX-314 would enhance the onset and duration of sensory and motor function in a rat sciatic nerve block model. Fifty-six Sprague-Dawley rats received unilateral sciatic nerve blocks with 0.2 mL of 35 mmol/L QX-314 alone, dexmedetomidine (5.3 μmol/L (1 μg/kg), 26.4 μmol/L (5 μg/kg), 52.8 μmol/L (10 μg/kg)) alone, or a combination of the two. Thermal nociception and motor function were assessed by an investigator blinded to the drug treatment, and sciatic nerves and perineural tissues were harvested at 14 days after injection. In addition, we examined the effects of these solutions on compound action potentials in isolated frog sciatic nerves. Dexmedetomidine added to QX-314 enhanced the onset and duration of thermal nociception block and motor block (P < 0.05) without aggravating histopathological injuries. Furthermore, 52.8 μmol/L dexmedetomidine added to 35 mmol/L QX-314 showed less inflammation than QX-314 alone at 14 days (P = 0.003). Dexmedetomidine plus QX-314 was shown to dose-dependently reduce the compound action potentials relative to QX-314 alone (P < 0.05). It was concluded that co-administration of QX-314 with a clinical dose of dexmedetomidine produced a synergistic anesthetic effect to enhance the effect of sciatic nerve block.

Abstract
Blast-associated sensory and cognitive trauma sustained by military service members is an area of extensively studied research. Recent studies in our laboratory have revealed that low-level blast exposure increased expression of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and endothelin-1 (ET-1), proteins well characterized for their role in mediating pain transmission, in the cornea. Determining the functional consequences of these alterations in protein expression is critical to understanding blast-related sensory trauma. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine TRPV1 and ET-1 expression in ocular associated sensory tissues following primary and tertiary blast. A rodent model of blast injury was used in which anesthetized animals, unrestrained or restrained, received a single or repeat blast (73.8 ± 5.5 kPa) from a compressed air shock tube once or daily for five consecutive days, respectively. Behavioral and functional analyses were conducted to assess blast effects on nocifensive behavior and TRPV1 activity. Immunohistochemistry and Western Blot were also performed with trigeminal ganglia (TG) to determine TRPV1, ET-1 and glial fibrillary associated protein (GFAP) expression following blast. Increased TRPV1, ET-1 and GFAP were detected in the TG of animals exposed to repeat blast. Increased nocifensive responses were also observed in animals exposed to repeat, tertiary blast as compared to single blast and control. Moreover, decreased TRPV1 desensitization was observed in TG neurons exposed to repeat blast. Repeat, tertiary blast resulted in increased TRPV1, ET-1 and GFAP expression in the TG, enhanced nociception and decreased TRPV1 desensitization.

Abstract
Though the term "inflammation" is traditionally defined as proliferation or infiltration of lymphatic cells of the lymphatic immune system and macrophages or as immunoreactive proteins including cytokines, interleukins and major histocompatibility complexes, recently recognized reactions to tissue injury also are inflammation, often occurring in the central nervous system in conditions where they previously were not anticipated and where they may play a role in both pathogenesis and repair. We highlight 4 such novel inflammatory conditions revealed by neuropathologic studies: (1) inflammatory markers and cells in the brain of human fetuses with tuberous sclerosis complex and perhaps other disorders of the mechanistic target of rapamycin genetic or metabolic pathway, (2) inflammatory markers in the brain related to febrile seizures of infancy and early childhood, (3) heat-shock protein upregulation in glial cells and neurons at sites of chronic epileptic foci, and (4) the emerging role of astrocytes in the presence of and participation in inflammation. Novel evidence shows that cerebral inflammation plays a role in some genetic diseases as early as midgestation and thus is not always acquired postnatally or in adult life.

Abstract
TRPV1 (vanilloid) receptors are activated by different types of stimuli including capsaicin, acidification and heat. Various ligands demonstrate stimulus-dependent action on TRPV1. In the present work we studied the action of polypeptides isolated from sea anemone Heteractis crispa (APHC1, APHC2 and APHC3) on rat TRPV1 receptors stably expressed in CHO cells using electrophysiological recordings, fluorescent Ca2+ measurements and molecular modeling. The APHCs potentiated TRPV1 responses to low (3–300 nM) concentrations of capsaicin but inhibited responses to high (>3.0 μM) concentrations. The activity-dependent action was also found for TRPV1 responses to 2APB and acidification. Thus the action mode of APHCs is bimodal and depended on the activation stimuli strength—potentiation of low-amplitude responses and no effect/inhibition of high-amplitude responses. The double-gate model of TRPV1 activation suggests that APHC-polypeptides may stabilize an intermediate state during the receptor activation. Molecular modeling revealed putative binding site at the outer loops of TRPV1. Binding to this site can directly affect activation by protons and can be allosterically coupled with capsaicin site. The results are important for further investigations of both TRPV1 and its ligands for potential therapeutic use.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES DWP05195 is a transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) antagonist developed for managing pain. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pharmacodynamics pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of DWP05195 in healthy subjects. This was a first-in-human randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study. SUBJECTS AND METHODS DWP05195 or placebo was administered as a single dose of 10-600 mg in the single-dose study and as 100-400 mg once daily for 8 days in the multiple-dose studies. Each study group consisted of 10 subjects (study drug-to-placebo ratio was 8:2). For pharmacodynamics assessment, the heat pain threshold (HPtr), heat pain tolerance (HPtol), perfusion intensity, and flare area ratio of cutaneous blood flow were measured. Safety and tolerability were evaluated throughout the study. RESULTS The maximum plasma concentrations and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to the last measurable time dose-dependently increased. HPtr and HPtol tended to increase more after DWP05195 administration than after placebo administration. HPtr and HPtol tended to dose-dependently increase after administration of DWP05195. Cutaneous blood flow was reduced as the dose of DWP05195 increased during the multiple-dose study. DWP05195 was well tolerated up to 600 and 400 mg single- and multiple-dose administrations, respectively. CONCLUSION The pharmacological activity of DWP05195, measured using HPtr and HPtol, increased as expected in a dose-dependent manner owing to increased systemic exposure, indicating that DWP05195 can be used as a TRPV1 antagonist for pain management.

Abstract
Thermal perception is an essential sensory system for survival since temperature fluctuations affect various biologic processes. Therefore, evolutionary changes in thermosensory systems may have played important roles in adaptation processes. Comparative analyses of sensory receptors among different species can provide us with important clues to understand the molecular basis for adaptation. Several ion channels belonging to the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily serve as thermal sensors in a wide variety of animal species. These TRP proteins are multimodal receptors that are activated by temperature as well as other sensory stimuli. Among them TRPV1 and TRPA1 are activated by noxious ranges of thermal stimuli and irritating chemicals, and are mainly expressed in nociceptive sensory neurons. Comparative analyses of TRPV1 and TRPA1 among various vertebrate species revealed evolutionary changes that likely contributed to diversification of sensory perception. Whereas heat-induced TRPV1 responses have been conserved across many vertebrates, TRPA1 varied among species. Mutagenesis experiments using these two channels from various species also helped characterize the molecular basis for their activation and inhibition. Meanwhile, recent detailed comparative analyses using closely related species showed shifts in TRPV1 and TRPA1 thermal sensitivity that allowed adaptation to different thermal environments. Changes in TRPV1 heat responses appear to arise from just a few amino acid differences among species. These observations suggest that evolutionary changes in peripheral sensors are likely driving force for shifting thermal perception in adaptation processes.

Abstract
Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid, member 1 (TRPV1), is a non-selective cation channel belonging to the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of ion channels. It occurs in the peripheral and central nervous system, activated by a variety of exogenous and endogenous stimuli, thus playing a key role in transmission of pain. This has been a target for chronic pain since more than a decade and a number of antagonists that progressed into clinical trials have failed due to the unexpected side effect of core body temperature rise, thus halting progress in this field. Of late, there has been an upsurge in research on this target, with the rat TRPV1 structure being determined, many new antagonists discovered that are temperature-neutral and many new therapeutic avenues being discovered for TRPV1, including diseases of respiratory and digestive systems, skin and bladder. Towards identifying diverse compounds to decipher the role of this target in various indications, here we report a 3D-QSAR model built using the new topomer-CoMFA methodology on a series of piperazinyl-aryl TRPV1 antagonists and the use of this model, along with a pharmacophore model and the shape of one of the potent compounds of this series, to virtually screen a subset of the ZINC database to find novel and diverse hits. These can serve as starting points to develop modality-selective antagonists for chronic pain and to elucidate the critical role of TRPV1 in the various new therapeutic areas.

Abstract
pH changes can influence local blood flow, but the mechanisms of how acids and bases affect vascular tone is not fully clarified. Transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) channels are expressed in vessels and can be activated by pH alterations. Thus, we hypothesized that TRPV1 channels are involved in the mediation of vascular responses to acid-base changes. Vasomotor responses to HCl, NaOH, and capsaicin were measured in isolated murine carotid and tail skin arteries. The function of TRPV1 was blocked by either of three approaches: Trpv1 gene disruption, pharmacological blockade with a TRPV1 antagonist (BCTC), and functional impairment of mainly neural TRPV1 channels (desensitization). In each artery type of control mice, HCl caused relaxation but NaOH contraction, and both responses were augmented after genetic or pharmacological TRPV1 blockade. In arteries of TRPV1-desensitized mice, HCl-induced relaxation did not differ from controls, whereas NaOH-induced contraction was augmented. All three types of TRPV1 blockade had more pronounced effects in carotid than in tail skin arteries. We conclude that TRPV1 channels limit the vasomotor responses to changes in pH. While base-induced arterial contraction is regulated primarily by neural TRPV1 channels, acid-induced arterial relaxation is modulated by TRPV1 channels located on nonneural vascular structures.

Abstract
Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common seizure disorder to affect children. Although there is mounting evidence to support that FS occur when children have fever-induced hyperventilation leading to respiratory alkalosis, the underlying mechanisms of hyperthermia-induced hyperventilation and links to FS remain poorly understood. As transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) receptors are heat-sensitive, play an important role in adult thermoregulation and modulate respiratory chemoreceptors, we hypothesize that TRPV1 activation is important for hyperthermia-induced hyperventilation leading to respiratory alkalosis and decreased FS thresholds, and consequently, TRPV1 KO mice will be relatively protected from hyperthermic seizures. To test our hypothesis we subjected postnatal (P) day 8-20 TRPV1 KO and C57BL/6 control mice to heated dry air. Seizure threshold temperature, latency and the rate of rise of body temperature during hyperthermia were assessed. At ages where differences in seizure thresholds were identified, head-out plethysmography was used to assess breathing and the rate of expired CO2 in response to hyperthermia, to determine if the changes in seizure thresholds were related to respiratory alkalosis. Paradoxically, we observed a pro-convulsant effect of TRPV1 deletion (∼4min decrease in seizure latency), and increased ventilation in response to hyperthermia in TRPV1 KO compared to control mice at P20. This pro-convulsant effect of TRPV1 absence was not associated with an increased rate of expired CO2, however, these mice had a more rapid rise in body temperature following exposure to hyperthermia than controls, and the expected linear relationship between body weight and seizure latency was absent. Based on these findings, we conclude that deletion of the TRPV1 receptor prevents reduction in hyperthermic seizure susceptibility in older mouse pups, via a mechanism that is independent of hyperthermia-induced respiratory alkalosis, but possibly involves impaired development of thermoregulatory mechanisms, although at present the mechanism remain unknown.

Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2016; 1861:441-449.

Abstract
Photobiomodulation (PBM) using red or near-infrared (NIR) light has been used to stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells. The use of NIR wavelengths such as 810nm is reasonably well accepted to stimulate mitochondrial activity and ATP production via absorption of photons by cytochrome c oxidase. However, the mechanism of action of 980nm is less well understood. Here we study the effects of both wavelengths (810nm and 980nm) on adipose-derived stem cells in vitro. Both wavelengths showed a biphasic dose response, but 810nm had a peak dose response at 3J/cm2 for stimulation of proliferation at 24h, while the peak dose for 980nm was 10-100 times lower at 0.03 or 0.3J/cm2. Moreover, 980nm (but not 810nm) increased cytosolic calcium while decreasing mitochondrial calcium. The effects of 980nm could be blocked by calcium channel blockers (capsazepine for TRPV1 and SKF96365 for TRPC channels), which had no effect on 810nm. To test the hypothesis that the chromophore for 980nm was intracellular water, which could possibly form a microscopic temperature gradient upon laser irradiation, we added cold medium (4°C) during the light exposure, or pre-incubated the cells at 42°C, both of which abrogated the effect of 980nm but not 810nm. We conclude that 980nm affects temperature-gated calcium ion channels, while 810nm largely affects mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase.

Abstract
Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) is a non-selective, Ca2+ permeable cation channel activated by noxious heat, and chemical ligands, such as capsaicin and resiniferatoxin (RTX). Many compounds have been developed that either activate or inhibit TRPV1, but none of them are in routine clinical practice. This review will discuss the rationale for antagonists and agonists of TRPV1 for pain relief and other conditions, and strategies to develop new, better drugs to target this ion channel, using the newly available high-resolution structures.
