Aging is associated with impaired triggering of TRPV3-mediated cutaneous vasodilation: a crucial process for local heat exposure. GeroScience 2024; 46:3567-3580. [PMID: 37855862 PMCID: PMC11226586 DOI: 10.1007/s11357-023-00981-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Sensing temperature is vitally important to adapt our body to environmental changes. Local warm detection is required to initiate regulation of cutaneous blood flow, which is part of the peripheral thermoregulatory mechanisms, and thus avoid damage to surrounding tissues. The mechanisms mediating cutaneous vasodilation during local heat stress are impaired with aging. However, the impact of aging on the ability of the skin to detect subtle thermal changes is unknown. Among heat-activated cation channels, transient receptor potential vanilloid 3 (TRPV3) is a thermo-sensor predominantly expressed on keratinocytes and involved in local vascular thermoregulatory mechanisms of the skin in young mice. In the present study, using a murine in vivo model of local heat exposure of the skin, we showed that heat-induced vasodilation was reduced in old mice associated with reduced expression of TRPV3 channels. We also found a decrease in expression and activity of TRPV3 channel, as well as reduced TRPV3-dependent adenosine tri-phosphate release in human primary keratinocytes from old donors. This study shows that aging alters the epidermal TRPV3 channels, which might delay the detection of changes in skin temperature, thereby limiting the mechanisms triggered for local vascular thermoregulation in the old skin.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 3 (TRPV3) is an ion channel implicated in skin physiology and itch. TRPV3 inhibitors can present a novel strategy for combating debilitating itch conditions, and medicinal plants are a natural pool of such compounds. Here, we report the isolation of a TRPV3-inhibiting compound from Andrographis paniculata, a medicinal plant with anti-inflammatory properties whose bioactive components are poorly characterized in terms of molecular targets. Using 1H and 13C NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry, the compound was identified as a labdane-type diterpenoid, 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide (ddA). The activity of the compound was evaluated by fluorescent calcium assay and manual whole-cell patch-clamp technique. ddA inhibited human TRPV3 in stably expressing CHO and HaCaT keratinocytes, acting selectively among other TRP channels implicated in itch and inflammation and not showing toxicity to HaCaT cells. Antipruritic effects of the compound were evaluated in scratching behavior models on ICR mice. ddA suppressed itch induced by the TRPV3 activator carvacrol. Additionally, ddA potently suppressed histamine-induced itch with efficacy comparable to loratadine, a clinically used antihistamine drug. These results suggest the potential of ddA as a possible safe and efficacious alternative for antipruritic therapy.

Abstract
Recent insights reveal the significant role of TRPV3 in warmth sensation. A novel finding elucidated how thermosensation is affected by TRPV3 membrane abundance that is modulated by the transmembrane protein TMEM79. TRPV3 is a warmth-sensitive ion channel predominantly expressed in epithelial cells, particularly skin keratinocytes. Multiple studies investigated the roles of TRPV3 in cutaneous physiology and pathophysiology. TRPV3 activation by innocuous warm temperatures in keratinocytes highlights its significance in temperature sensation, but whether TRPV3 directly contributes to warmth sensations in vivo remains controversial. This review explores the electrophysiological and structural properties of TRPV3 and how modulators affect its intricate regulatory mechanisms. Moreover, we discuss the multifaceted involvement of TRPV3 in skin physiology and pathology, including barrier formation, hair growth, inflammation, and itching. Finally, we examine the potential of TRPV3 as a therapeutic target for skin diseases and highlight its diverse role in maintaining skin homeostasis.

TRPV3-Activated PARP1/AIFM1/MIF Axis through Oxidative Stress Contributes to Atopic Dermatitis. J Invest Dermatol 2024:S0022-202X(24)00384-1.

Abstract
TRPV3 is a temperature-sensitive calcium-permeable channel. In previous studies, we noticed prominent TUNEL-positive keratinocytes in patients with Olmsted syndrome and Trpv3+/G568V mice, both of which carry gain-of-function variants in the TRPV3 gene. However, it remains unclear how the keratinocytes die and whether this process contributes to more skin disorders. In this study, we showed that gain-of-function variant or pharmacological activation of TRPV3 resulted in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1)/AIFM1/macrophage migration inhibitory factor axis-mediated parthanatos, which is an underestimated form of cell death in skin diseases. Chelating calcium, scavenging ROS, or inhibiting nitric oxide synthase effectively rescued the parthanatos, indicating that TRPV3 regulates parthanatos through calcium-mediated oxidative stress. Furthermore, inhibiting PARP1 downregulated TSLP and IL33 induced by TRPV3 activation in HaCaT cells, reduced immune cell infiltration, and ameliorated epidermal thickening in Trpv3+/G568V mice. Marked parthanatos was also detected in the skin of MC903-treated mice and patients with atopic dermatitis, whereas inhibiting PARP1 largely alleviated the MC903-induced dermatitis. In addition, stimulating parthanatos in mouse skin with methylnitronitrosoguanidine recapitulated many features of atopic dermatitis. These data demonstrate that the TRPV3-regulated parthanatos-associated PARP1/AIFM1/macrophage migration inhibitory factor axis is a critical contributor to the pathogenesis of Olmsted syndrome and atopic dermatitis, suggesting that modulating the PARP1/AIFM1/macrophage migration inhibitory factor axis is a promising therapy for these conditions.

Abstract
TRPV3 represents both temperature- and ligand-activated transient receptor potential (TRP) channel. Physiologically relevant opening of TRPV3 channels by heat has been captured structurally, while opening by agonists has only been observed in structures of mutant channels. Here, we present cryo-EM structures that illuminate opening and inactivation of wild-type human TRPV3 in response to binding of two types of agonists: either the natural cannabinoid tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) or synthetic agonist 2-aminoethoxydiphenylborane (2-APB). We found that THCV binds to the vanilloid site, while 2-APB binds to the S1-S4 base and ARD-TMD linker sites. Despite binding to distally located sites, both agonists induce similar pore opening and cause dissociation of a lipid that occupies the vanilloid site in their absence. Our results uncover different but converging allosteric pathways through which small-molecule agonists activate TRPV3 and provide a framework for drug design and understanding the role of lipids in ion channel function.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common cancer types worldwide and the first cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Transient receptor potential vanillin 3 (TRPV3) has been preliminarily discovered to play an important role in various cancers, including BC. Here, we explored the effect of TRPV3 on breast cancer cells and its potential mechanism. TRPV3 level was measured in BC tissue and adjacent noncancerous breast tissue using real-time RT-PCR and Western blot. Wound healing was used to detect cell migration. MTT and EDU were detected cell proliferation. TUNEL and Caspase-3 activity were used to detect cell apoptosis. We found that TRPV3 expression significantly increased in both human BC tissues and breast cells line. TRPV3 siRNA (TRPV3 inhibition) dramatically suppressed cell migration and proliferation, promoted the apoptosis, and decreased [Ca2+]i; whereas Carvacrol (TRPV3 agonist) has opposite effect in MCF-7 cells. We validated EGFR (Epidermal growth factor receptor) is a direct target protein of TRPV3. Mechanism studies have shown that Carvacrol increased phosphorylation levels of EGFR and AKT, and were decreased by suppression of TRPV3. Moreover, Erlotinib (EGFR inhibitor) and LY294002 (PI3K inhibitor) diminished Carvacrol induced cell migration and proliferation, promoted cell apoptosis, and increased [Ca2+]i in Carvacrol group. Our results collectively suggest that TRPV3 siRNA inhibits migration and proliferation, and promoted apoptosis in breast cancer cells by EGFR/AKT pathway. These findings indicate that TRPV3 may represent a novel therapeutic strategy for breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alpaca is a domestic South American camelid probably arising from the domestication of two wild camelids, the vicugna and the guanaco. Two phenotypes are described for alpaca, known as huacaya and suri. Huacaya fleece is characterized by compact, soft, and highly crimped fibers, while suri fleece is longer, straight, less crimped, and lustrous. The gene variants determining these phenotypes are still unknown, although previous studies suggested a dominant inheritance of the suri. Based on that, the aim of this study was the identification of the gene variants determining alpaca coat phenotypes through whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis. RESULTS The sample used includes two test-cross alpaca families, suri × huacaya, which produced two offspring, one with the suri phenotype and one with the huacaya phenotype. The analyzed sample was expanded through the addition of WGS data from six vicugnas and six guanacos; this because we assumed the absence of the gene variants linked to the suri phenotype in these wild species. The analysis of gene variant segregation with the suri phenotype, coupled with the filtering of gene variants present in the wild species, disclosed the presence in all the suri samples of a premature termination codon (PTC) in TRPV3 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 3), a gene known to be involved in hair growth and cycling, thermal sensation, cold tolerance and adaptation in several species. Mutations in TRPV3 were previously associated with the alteration of hair structure leading to an impaired formation of the hair canal and the hair shaft in mouse. This PTC in TRPV3, due to a G > T substitution (p.Glu475*), results in a loss of 290 amino acids from the canonical translated protein, plausibly leading to a physiological dysfunction. CONCLUSION The present results suggest that the suri phenotype may arise from a TRPV3 gene variant which may explain some of the suri features such as its longer hair fibre with lower number of cuticular scales compared to huacaya.

Abstract
Chronic itch is a debilitating condition with limited treatment options, severely affecting quality of life. The identification of pruriceptors has sparked a growing interest in the therapeutic potential of TRP channels in the context of itch. In this regard, we provided a comprehensive overview of the site-specific expression of TRP channels and their associated functions in response to a range of pruritogens. Although several potent antipruritic compounds that target specific TRP channels have been developed and have demonstrated efficacy in various chronic itch conditions through experimental means, a more thorough understanding of the potential for adverse effects or interactions with other TRP channels or GPCRs is necessary to develop novel and selective therapeutics that target TRP channels for treating chronic itch. This review focuses on the mechanism of itch associated with TRP channels at specific sites, from the skin to the sensory neuron, with the aim of suggesting specific therapeutic targets for treating this condition.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid-3 (TRPV3) ion channels are prominently expressed in keratinocytes, playing a vital role in skin functions. Honokiol and magnolol (H&M) the primary bioactive constituents in Magnolia officinalis extract, demonstrate anti-inflammatory and skin-protective properties. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanism regarding their effect on Ca2+-permeable ion channels remain unclear. Our purpose in this study is to investigate the effect of H&M on TRPV3 and cytokine release in normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs), including its gain-of-function (GOF) mutants (G573S and G573C) associated with Olmstead syndrome. We performed whole-cell patch-clamp, fura-2 spectrofluorimetry to investigate channels activity, CCK-8 assay to analyze cell death and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to assess the cytokine release from NHEKs. H&M inhibited the TRPV3 current (ITRPV3) and cytosolic calcium increase in NHEKs, HEK293T cells overexpressing hTRPV3 and its GOF mutants. Moreover, the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-6 and -8) from keratinocytes stimulated by TRPV3 agonist was effectively suppressed by H&M. Our findings provide insights into the mechanism underlying the anti-inflammatory effects of H&M, highlighting their potential in treating skin diseases.

Abstract
Because of the crucial role of epidermal permeability barrier in regulation of cutaneous and extracutaneous functions, great efforts have been made to identify and develop the regimens that can improve epidermal permeability barrier function. Studies have demonstrated that oral administration of natural ingredients can improve epidermal permeability barrier in various skin conditions, including inflammatory dermatoses and UV-irradiation. Moreover, topical applications of some natural ingredients can also accelerate the repair of epidermal permeability barrier after acute barrier disruption and lower transepidermal water loss in the intact skin. Natural ingredient-induced improvements in epidermal permeability barrier function can be attributable to upregulation of keratinocyte differentiation, lipid production, antioxidant, hyaluronic acid production, expression of aquaporin 3 and sodium-hydrogen exchanger 1. In this review, we summarize the benefits of topical natural ingredients in epidermal permeability barrier in normal skin with or without acute barrier disruption and the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
In our series of studies, the changes in the skin characteristics of mice caused by aging were investigated in correlation with the stem cells for keratinocytes and melanocytes in the natural hair cycle until middle age. The aim of the present review was to investigate these characteristics of hair follicles (HFs) at older age and complete the analysis of these changes as a study throughout the mouse lifetime. In addition, stem cells for keratinocytes and melanocytes were evaluated for changes in skin characteristics caused by aging. Postnatal day 200 (P200) appears to be the age of complete maturation of skin and the onset of aging with regard to HFs. Keratin 15-positive keratinocyte stem cells complete their localization as a quantitatively sufficient amount of progenitor in the hair bulge region and orchestrate the regeneration of hairs in every anagen phase thereafter. Although their frequency is low, an unusual structure of HFs, curved HFs, appear for the first time at P200. Thereafter, abnormal hair curvature continues to increase throughout life. In contrast, HF characteristics derived from melanocytes begin to show a high frequency of hypopigmented hair bulbs at P200 and appear to lead to a significant increase in the number of white hairs. Curved HFs and white hairs were considered biomarkers of aging in mice. The number of tyrosinase-related protein 2-positive melanocyte stem cells in the hair bulge is extremely low and may be one cause underlying not only the induction of melanocyte-derived characteristics by aging but possibly also that of keratinocyte-derived characteristics. These results provide insight into the mechanisms of the actions of stem cells on hair regeneration through the aging process.

Abstract
The TRPV3 calcium ion channel is vital for maintaining skin health and has been associated with various skin-related disorders. Since TRPV3 is involved in the development of skin inflammation, inhibiting TRPV3 could be a potential treatment strategy. Alpha-mangostin isolated from Garcinia mangostana L. extract exhibits diverse positive effects on skin health; however, the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. This study investigated the TRPV3-inhibitory properties of alpha-mangostin on TRPV3 hyperactive mutants associated with Olmsted syndrome and its impact on TRPV3-induced cytokine secretion and cell death. Our findings demonstrate that alpha-mangostin effectively inhibits TRPV3, with an IC50 of 0.077 ± 0.013 μM, showing inhibitory effects on both wild-type and mutant TRPV3. TRPV3 inhibition with alpha-mangostin decreased calcium influx and cytokine release, protecting cells from TRPV3-induced death. These results indicate that alpha-mangostin reduced inflammation in TRPV3-activated skin keratinocytes, suggesting that alpha-mangostin could be potentially used for improving inflammatory skin conditions such as dermatitis.

Abstract
TRPV3, a non-selective cation transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channel, is activated by warm temperatures. It is predominantly expressed in skin keratinocytes, and participates in various somatic processes. Previous studies have reported that thermosensation in mice lacking TRPV3 was impaired. Here, we identified a transmembrane protein, TMEM79, that acts as a negative regulator of TRPV3. Heterologous expression of TMEM79 was capable of suppressing TRPV3-mediated currents in HEK293T cells. In addition, TMEM79 modulated TRPV3 translocalization and promoted its degradation in the lysosomes. TRPV3-mediated currents and Ca2+ influx were potentiated in primary mouse keratinocytes lacking TMEM79. Furthermore, TMEM79-deficient male mice preferred a higher temperature than did wild-type mice due to elevated TRPV3 function. Our study revealed unique interactions between TRPV3 and TMEM79, both in vitro and in vivo. These findings support roles for TMEM79 and TRPV3 in thermosensation.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid member 3 (TRPV3) is an ion channel that plays a critical role in temperature sensing in skin. There have been active studies on how TRPV3, which is also known as one of the temperature-sensitive transient receptor potential (thermoTRP) channels, responds to temperature. However, the previous studies were mostly based on TRPV3 originating from mice or rats. Here, we focus on human TRPV3 (hTRPV3) and show that which domain of hTRPV3 undergoes conformational changes as temperature increases by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) assay. During the heat-induced activation of hTRPV3, the linker domain close to C-terminus, that is, the C-terminal domain shows a largest structural change whereas there is little change in the ankyrin repeat domain (ARD). Interestingly, the activation of hTRPV3 by an agonist shows structural change patterns that are completely different from those observed during activation by heat; we observe structural changes in ARD and S2-S3 linker after ligand stimulation whereas relatively little change is observed when stimulated by heat. Our results provide insight into the thermal activation of hTRPV3 channel.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 3 (TRPV3) is an ion channel with a sensory function that is most abundantly expressed in keratinocytes and peripheral neurons. TRPV3 plays a role in Ca2+ homeostasis due to non-selective ionic conductivity and participates in signaling pathways associated with itch, dermatitis, hair growth, and skin regeneration. TRPV3 is a marker of pathological dysfunctions, and its expression is increased in conditions of injury and inflammation. There are also pathogenic mutant forms of the channel associated with genetic diseases. TRPV3 is considered as a potential therapeutic target of pain and itch, but there is a rather limited range of natural and synthetic ligands for this channel, most of which do not have high affinity and selectivity. In this review, we discuss the progress in the understanding of the evolution, structure, and pharmacology of TRPV3 in the context of the channel's function in normal and pathological states.

Abstract
Adult autologous human epidermal stem cells can be extensively expanded ex vivo for cell and gene therapy. Identifying the mechanisms involved in stem cell maintenance and defining culture conditions to maintain stemness is critical, because an inadequate environment can result in the rapid conversion of stem cells into progenitors/transient amplifying cells (clonal conversion), with deleterious consequences on the quality of the transplants and their ability to engraft. Here, we demonstrate that cultured human epidermal stem cells respond to a small drop in temperature through thermoTRP channels via mTOR signaling. Exposure of cells to rapamycin or a small drop in temperature induces the nuclear translocation of mTOR with an impact on gene expression. We also demonstrate by single-cell analysis that long-term inhibition of mTORC1 reduces clonal conversion and favors the maintenance of stemness. Taken together, our results demonstrate that human keratinocyte stem cells can adapt to environmental changes (e.g., small variations in temperature) through mTOR signaling and constant inhibition of mTORC1 favors stem cell maintenance, a finding of high importance for regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the effects of washing in patients receiving radiotherapy (RT) on radiation dermatitis (RD) severity. METHODS A literature search was performed using Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases between January 1, 1946, and January 31, 2023. Four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) studying the effects of washing with or without soap on RD were identified. A meta-analysis was conducted for clinician-reported outcomes using RevMan 5.4 and a narrative synthesis for patient-reported outcomes due to a lack of reported data amenable to quantitative comparison in accordance with the Synthesis Without Meta-analysis (SWiM) guidelines. The Cochrane Risk of bias (RoB2) and Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) criteria were used to assess risk of bias and certainty of evidence, respectively. RESULTS Two RCTs met the inclusion criteria for meta-analysis. Washing with or without soap significantly reduced the incidence of severe RD (OR: 0.32, 95% CI: 0.19-0.55, p < 0.01) and moist desquamation (OR: 0.25, 95% CI: 0.12-0.52, p < 0.01). Two of four trials found an association between washing and reduced itching score (p = 0.38). Pain score was not found to be significantly different with or without washing in any of the four studies (p = 0.07). The two studies that assessed burn scores did not detect any difference between the washing group versus no washing group (p = 0.25). Washing was associated with improved quality of life (QoL) measures in one study. CONCLUSION Washing with or without soap during RT resulted in less severe RD and less moist desquamation. Given the QoL benefits of washing, it should be advocated as part of routine skin care during RT.

Abstract
Keratinocytes of the mammalian skin provide not only mechanical protection for the tissues, but also transmit mechanical, chemical, and thermal stimuli from the external environment to the sensory nerve terminals. Sensory nerve fibers penetrate the epidermal basement membrane and function in the tight intercellular space among keratinocytes. Here we show that epidermal keratinocytes produce hydrogen peroxide upon the activation of the NADPH oxidase dual oxidase 1 (DUOX1). This enzyme can be activated by increasing cytosolic calcium levels. Using DUOX1 knockout animals as a model system we found an increased sensitivity towards certain noxious stimuli in DUOX1-deficient animals, which is not due to structural changes in the skin as evidenced by detailed immunohistochemical and electron-microscopic analysis of epidermal tissue. We show that DUOX1 is expressed in keratinocytes but not in the neural sensory pathway. The release of hydrogen peroxide by activated DUOX1 alters both the activity of neuronal TRPA1 and redox-sensitive potassium channels expressed in dorsal root ganglia primary sensory neurons. We describe hydrogen peroxide, produced by DUOX1 as a paracrine mediator of nociceptive signal transmission. Our results indicate that a novel, hitherto unknown redox mechanism modulates noxious sensory signals.

Novel Insights into the Role of Keratinocytes-Expressed TRPV3 in the Skin. Biomolecules 2023; 13:biom13030513. [PMID: 36979447 PMCID: PMC10046267 DOI: 10.3390/biom13030513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Revised: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023] Open
Abstract
TRPV3 is a non-selective cation channel that is highly expressed in keratinocytes in the skin. Traditionally, keratinocytes-expressed TRPV3 is involved in multiple physiological and pathological functions of the skin, such as itching, heat pain, and hair development. Although the underlying mechanisms by which TRPV3 functions in vivo remain obscure, recent research studies suggest that several cytokines and EGFR signaling pathways may be involved. However, there have also been other studies with opposite results that question the role of TRPV3 in heat pain. In addition, an increasing number of studies have suggested a novel role of TRPV3 in promoting skin regeneration, indicating that TRPV3 may become a new potential target for regulating skin regeneration. This paper not only reviews the role of keratinocytes-expressed TRPV3 in the physiological and pathological processes of itching, heat pain, hair development, and skin regeneration, but also reviews the relationship between TRPV3 gene mutations and skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis (AD) and Olmsted syndrome (OS). This review will lay a foundation for further developing our understanding of the mechanisms by which TRPV3 is involved in itching, heat pain, and hair development, as well as the treatments for TRPV3-related skin diseases.

Biochemical and Structural Insights into FIH-Catalysed Hydroxylation of Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin Repeat Domains. Chembiochem 2023; 24:e202200576.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels have important roles in environmental sensing in animals. Human TRP subfamily A member 1 (TRPA1) is responsible for sensing allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) and other electrophilic sensory irritants. TRP subfamily vanilloid member 3 (TRPV3) is involved in skin maintenance. TRPV3 is a reported substrate of the 2-oxoglutarate oxygenase factor inhibiting hypoxia-inducible factor (FIH). We report biochemical and structural studies concerning asparaginyl hydroxylation of the ankyrin repeat domains (ARDs) of TRPA1 and TRPV3 catalysed by FIH. The results with ARD peptides support a previous report on FIH-catalysed TRPV3 hydroxylation and show that, of the 12 potential TRPA1 sequences investigated, one sequence (TRPA1 residues 322-348) undergoes hydroxylation at Asn336. Structural studies reveal that the TRPA1 and TRPV3 ARDs bind to FIH with a similar overall geometry to most other reported FIH substrates. However, the binding mode of TRPV3 to FIH is distinct from that of other substrates.

Abstract
Pachyonychia congenita (PC) is a rare keratinizing disorder characterized by painful palmoplantar keratoderma for which there is no standard current treatment. PC is caused by dominant mutations in keratin (K) K6A, K6B, K6C, K16, or K17 genes involved in stress, wound healing, and epidermal barrier formation. Mechanisms leading to pain and painful palmoplantar keratoderma in PC remain elusive. In this study, we show overexpression of EGFR ligands epiregulin and TGF-α as well as HER1‒EGFR and HER2 in the upper spinous layers of PC lesions. EGFR activation was confirmed by upregulated MAPK/ERK and mTOR signaling. Abnormal late terminal keratinization was associated with elevated TGM1 activity. In addition, the calcium ion permeable channel TRPV3 was significantly increased in PC-lesional skin, suggesting a predominant role of the TRPV3/EGFR signaling complex in PC. We hypothesized that this complex contributes to promoting TGM1 activity and induces the expression and shedding of EGFR ligands. To counteract this biological cascade, we treated three patients with PC with oral erlotinib for 6‒8 months. The treatment was well-tolerated and led to an early, drastic, and sustained reduction of neuropathic pain with a major improvement of QOL. Our study provides evidence that targeted pharmacological inhibition of EGFR is an effective strategy in PC.

Mar Drugs 2023; 21:md21020078. [PMID: 36827119 PMCID: PMC9963876 DOI: 10.3390/md21020078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Revised: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Echinochrome A (Ech A), a naphthoquinoid pigment from sea urchins, is known to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects that have been suggested to be mediated by antioxidant activity and intracellular signaling modulation. In addition to these mechanisms, the ion channels in keratinocytes, immune cells, and nociceptive neurons may be the target for the pharmacological effects. Here, using the patch clamp technique, we investigated the effects of Ech A on the Ca2+-permeable TRPV3, TRPV1 and Orai1 channels and the two-pore domain K+ (K2P) channels (TREK/TRAAK, TASK-1, and TRESK) overexpressed in HEK 293 cells. Ech A inhibited both the TRPV3 and Orai1 currents, with IC50 levels of 2.1 and 2.4 μM, respectively. The capsaicin-activated TRPV1 current was slightly augmented by Ech A. Ech A alone did not change the amplitude of the TREK-2 current (ITREK2), but pretreatments with Ech A markedly facilitated ITREK2 activation by 2-APB, arachidonic acid (AA), and acidic extracellular pH (pHe). Similar facilitation effects of Ech A on TREK-1 and TRAAK were observed when they were stimulated with 2-APB and AA, respectively. On the contrary, Ech A did not affect the TRESK and TASK-1 currents. Interestingly, the ITREK2 maximally activated by the combined application of 2-APB and Ech A was not inhibited by norfluoxetine but was still completely inhibited by ruthenium red. The selective loss of sensitivity to norfluoxetine suggested an altered molecular conformation of TREK-2 by Ech A. We conclude that the Ech A-induced inhibition of the Ca2+-permeable cation channels and the facilitation of the TREK/TRAAK K2P channels may underlie the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of Ech A.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanillin 3 (TRPV3) is a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily. As a Ca2+-permeable nonselective cation channel, TRPV3 can recognize thermal stimulation (31-39 °C), and it plays an important regulatory role in temperature perception, pain transduction, skin physiology, inflammation, cancer and other diseases. TRPV3 is not only activated by the changes in the temperature, but it also can be activated by a variety of chemical and physical stimuli. Selective TRPV3 agonists and antagonists with regulatory effects and the physiological functions for clinical application are highly demanded. In recent years, significant progress has been made in the study of TRPV3, but there is still a lack of modulators with a strong affinity and excellent selectivity. This paper reviews the functional characteristics of TRPV3 in terms of the structure, diseases and the research on TRPV3 modulators.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are activated by various extracellular and intracellular stimuli and are involved in many physiological events. Because compounds that act on TRP channels are potential candidates for therapeutic agents, a simple method for evaluating TRP channel activation is needed. In this study, we demonstrated that a transforming growth factor alpha (TGFα) shedding assay, previously developed for detecting G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation, can also detect TRP channel activation. This assay is a low-cost, easily accessible method that requires only an absorbance microplate reader. Mechanistically, TRP-channel-triggered TGFα shedding is achieved by both of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 10 (ADAM10) and 17 (ADAM17), whereas the GPCR-induced TGFα shedding response depends solely on ADAM17. This difference may be the result of qualitative or quantitative differences in intracellular Ca2+ kinetics between TRP channels and GPCRs. Use of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and betacellulin (BTC), substrates of ADAM10, improved the specificity of the shedding assay by reducing background responses mediated by endogenously expressed GPCRs. This assay for TRP channel measurement will not only facilitate the high-throughput screening of TRP channel ligands but also contribute to understanding the roles played by TRP channels as regulators of membrane protein ectodomain shedding.

Abstract
The TRPV3 channel plays vital roles in skin physiology. Dysfunction of TRPV3 causes skin diseases, including Olmsted syndrome. However, the lack of potent and selective inhibitors impedes the validation of TRPV3 as a therapeutic target. In this study, we identified Trpvicin as a potent and subtype-selective inhibitor of TRPV3. Trpvicin exhibits pharmacological potential in the inhibition of itch and hair loss in mouse models. Cryogenic electron microscopy structures of TRPV3 and the pathogenic G573S mutant complexed with Trpvicin reveal detailed ligand-binding sites, suggesting that Trpvicin inhibits the TRPV3 channel by stabilizing it in a closed state. Our G573S mutant structures demonstrate that the mutation causes a dilated pore, generating constitutive opening activity. Trpvicin accesses additional binding sites inside the central cavity of the G573S mutant to remodel the channel symmetry and block the channel. Together, our results provide mechanistic insights into the inhibition of TRPV3 by Trpvicin and support TRPV3-related drug development.

Abstract
The oral cavity is exposed to a remarkable range of noxious and innocuous conditions, including temperature fluctuations, mechanical forces, inflammation, and environmental and endogenous chemicals. How such changes in the oral environment are sensed is not completely understood. Transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels are a diverse family of molecular receptors that are activated by chemicals, temperature changes, and tissue damage. In non-neuronal cells, TRP channels play roles in inflammation, tissue development, and maintenance. In somatosensory neurons, TRP channels mediate nociception, thermosensation, and chemosensation. To assess whether TRP channels might be involved in environmental sensing in the human oral cavity, we investigated their distribution in human tongue and hard palate biopsies. TRPV3 and TRPV4 were expressed in epithelial cells with inverse expression patterns where they likely contribute to epithelial development and integrity. TRPA1 immunoreactivity was present in fibroblasts, immune cells, and neuronal afferents, consistent with known roles of TRPA1 in sensory transduction and response to damage and inflammation. TRPM8 immunoreactivity was found in lamina propria and neuronal subpopulations including within the end bulbs of Krause, consistent with a role in thermal sensation. TRPV1 immunoreactivity was identified in intraepithelial nerve fibers and end bulbs of Krause, consistent with roles in nociception and thermosensation. TRPM8 and TRPV1 immunoreactivity in end bulbs of Krause suggest that these structures contain a variety of neuronal afferents, including those that mediate nociception, thermosensation, and mechanotransduction. Collectively, these studies support the role of TRP channels in oral environmental surveillance and response.

Abstract
Itching is a sensory phenomenon characterized by an unpleasant sensation that makes you want to scratch the skin, and chronic itching diminishes the quality of life. In recent studies, multiple transient receptor potential (TRP) channels present in keratinocytes or nerve endings have been shown to engage in the propagation of itch signals in chronic dermatological or pruritic conditions, such as atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis (PS). TRPV3, a member of the TRP family, is highly expressed in the epidermal keratinocytes. Normal TRPV3 signaling is essential for maintaining epidermal barrier homeostasis. In recent decades, many studies have suggested that TRPV3 contributes to detecting pruritus signals. Gain-of-function mutations in TRPV3 in mice and humans are characterized by severe itching, hyperkeratosis, and elevated total IgE levels. These studies suggest that TRPV3 is an important channel for skin itching. Preclinical studies have provided evidence to support the development of TRPV3 antagonists for treating inflammatory skin conditions, itchiness, and pain. This review explores the role of TRPV3 in chronic pruritus, collating clinical and experimental evidence. We also discuss underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms and explore the potential of TRPV3 antagonists as therapeutic agents.

Abstract
This is the English version of the Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Atopic Dermatitis 2021. Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a disease characterized by relapsing eczema with pruritus as a primary lesion. In Japan, from the perspective of evidence-based medicine, the current strategies for the treatment of AD consist of three primary measures: (i) use of topical corticosteroids, tacrolimus ointment, and delgocitinib ointment as the main treatment of the inflammation; (ii) topical application of emollients to treat the cutaneous barrier dysfunction; and (iii) avoidance of apparent exacerbating factors, psychological counseling, and advice about daily life. In the present revised guidelines, descriptions of three new drugs, namely, dupilumab, delgocitinib, and baricitinib, have been added. The guidelines present recommendations to review clinical research articles, evaluate the balance between the advantages and disadvantages of medical activities, and optimize medical activity-related patient outcomes with respect to several important points requiring decision-making in clinical practice.

Br J Pharmacol 2022; 179:5290-5304. [PMID: 35916168 DOI: 10.1111/bph.15937] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2021] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ca2+ signalling mediated by the thermosensitive, non-selective, Ca2+ -permeable transient receptor potential channel TRPV3 is assumed to play a critical role in regulating several aspects of skin functions, such as keratinocyte proliferation, differentiation, skin barrier formation and wound healing. Studying the function of TRPV3 in skin homeostasis, however, is still constrained by a lack of potent and selective pharmacological modulators of TRPV3. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH By screening an in-house compound library using fluorometric intracellular Ca2+ assays, we identified two chemically related hits. The more potent and efficient TRPV3 activator KS0365 was further evaluated in fluo-4-assisted Ca2+ assays, different Ca2+ imaging approaches, electrophysiological studies, cytotoxicity and migration assays. KEY RESULTS KS0365 activated recombinant and native mouse TRPV3 more potently and with a higher efficacy compared to 2-APB and did not activate TRPV1, TRPV2 or TRPV4 channels. The activation of TRPV3 by KS0365 super-additively accelerated the EGF-induced keratinocyte migration, which was inhibited by the TRP channel blocker ruthenium red or by siRNA-mediated TRPV3 knockdown. Moreover, KS0365 induced strong Ca2+ responses in migrating front cells and in leading edges of keratinocytes. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The selective TRPV3 activator KS0365 triggers increases in [Ca2+ ]i with most prominent signals in the leading edge, and accelerates migration of keratinocytes. TRPV3 activators may promote reepithelialization upon skin wounding.

Abstract
The perception of nociceptive signals, which are translated into pain, plays a fundamental role in the survival of organisms. Because pain is linked to a negative sensation, animals learn to avoid noxious signals. These signals are detected by receptors, which include some members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of ion channels that act as transducers of exogenous and endogenous noxious cues. These proteins have been in the focus of the field of physiology for several years, and much knowledge of how they regulate the function of the cell types and organs where they are expressed has been acquired. The last decade has been especially exciting because the 'resolution revolution' has allowed us to learn the molecular intimacies of TRP channels using cryogenic electron microscopy. These findings, in combination with functional studies, have provided insights into the role played by these channels in the generation and maintenance of pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Atopic dermatitis (AD) is one of the most common chronic inflammatory cutaneous diseases with unmet clinical needs. As a common ingredient found in several medicinal herbs with efficacy on cutaneous inflammatory diseases, Scutellarein (Scu) has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities. We aimed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of Scu against AD and its underlying molecular mechanism. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Efficacy of Scu on AD was evaluated in 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) and carvacrol-induced dermatitis mouse models. Cytokine mRNA and serum IgE levels were examined using qPCR and ELISA, respectively. Voltage clamp recordings were used to measure currents mediated by transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. In silico docking, site-direct mutagenesis, and covalent modification were used to explore the binding pocket of Scu on TRPV3. KEY RESULTS Subcutaneous administration of Scu efficaciously suppresses DNFB and carvacrol-induced pruritus, epidermal hyperplasia and skin inflammation in wild type mice but has no additional benefit in Trpv3 knockout mice in the carvacrol model. Scu is a potent and selective TRPV3 channel allosteric negative modulator with an apparent affinity of 1.18 μM. Molecular docking coupled with site-direct mutagenesis and covalent modification of incorporated cysteine residues demonstrate that Scu targets the cavity formed between the pore helix and transmembrane helix S6. Moreover, Scu attenuates endogenous TRPV3 activity in human keratinocytes and inhibits carvacrol-induced proliferative and proinflammatory responses. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Collectively, these data demonstrate that Scu ameliorates carvacrol-induced skin inflammation by directly inhibiting TRPV3, and TRPV3 represents a viable therapeutic target for AD treatment.

Abstract
Endothelial cells form the innermost layer of all blood vessels and are the only vascular component that remains throughout all vascular segments. The cerebral vasculature has several unique properties not found in the peripheral circulation; this requires that the cerebral endothelium be considered as a unique entity. Cerebral endothelial cells perform several functions vital for brain health. The cerebral vasculature is responsible for protecting the brain from external threats carried in the blood. The endothelial cells are central to this requirement as they form the basis of the blood-brain barrier. The endothelium also regulates fibrinolysis, thrombosis, platelet activation, vascular permeability, metabolism, catabolism, inflammation, and white cell trafficking. Endothelial cells regulate the changes in vascular structure caused by angiogenesis and artery remodeling. Further, the endothelium contributes to vascular tone, allowing proper perfusion of the brain which has high energy demands and no energy stores. In this article, we discuss the basic anatomy and physiology of the cerebral endothelium. Where appropriate, we discuss the detrimental effects of high blood pressure on the cerebral endothelium and the contribution of cerebrovascular disease endothelial dysfunction and dementia. © 2022 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
Skin diseases are common human illnesses that occur in all cultures, at all ages, and affect between 30% and 70% of individuals globally. TRPV3 is a cation-permeable TRP channel predominantly expressed in skin keratinocytes, implicated in cutaneous sensation and associated with numerous skin diseases. TRPV3 is inhibited by the local anesthetic dyclonine, traditionally used for topical applications to relieve pain and itch. However, the structural basis of TRPV3 inhibition by dyclonine has remained elusive. Here we present a cryo-EM structure of a TRPV3-dyclonine complex that reveals binding of the inhibitor in the portals which connect the membrane environment surrounding the channel to the central cavity of the channel pore. We propose a mechanism of TRPV3 inhibition in which dyclonine molecules stick out into the channel pore, creating a barrier for ion conductance. The allosteric binding site of dyclonine can serve as a template for the design of new TRPV3-targeting drugs.

Abstract
Pachyonychia congenita (PC) is a genodermatosis associated with severe painful palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) and thickened dystrophic nails caused by autosomal dominant-negative mutations in five genes encoding keratins 6A-B-C, 16, and 17. The mechanical, surgical, or medical options for painful PC are inefficient. Given ErbB/Her family members’ role in epidermal homeostasis, this study sought to investigate the possibility of treating PC patients with PPK by blocking signaling either with EGFR (Her1) inhibitor erlotinib or lapatinib, a dual EGFR(Her1)/Her2. After 1 month of therapy with oral erlotinib treatment at 75 mg/day, the pain disappeared for patient #1, with partially reduced hyperkeratosis, while increasing the dose to 100 mg/day resulted in painful skin fissures. Therapy replacement with erlotinib cream at 0.2% was inconclusive, and substitution with oral lapatinib at alternating doses of 500 and 750 mg/day achieved a good compromise between pain reduction, symptom improvements, and side effects. Patient #2′s treatment with erlotinib cream failed to display significant improvements. Oral erlotinib started at 75 mg/day then reduced to 25 mg/day because of the formation of an acneiform rash. Treatment considerably improved the patient’s condition, with an almost complete disappearance of pain. Oral Her1 or 1/2 inhibitors reduced pain, improved two PC patients’ quality of life, and offered promising therapeutic perspectives.

Abstract
Zhongwei goat is a unique Chinese native goat breed for excellent lamb fur. The pattern of flower spikes of the lamb fur was significantly reduced due to the reduction of the bending of the hair strands with growth. In order to explore the molecular mechanism underlying hair bending with growth, we performed the comprehensive analysis of transcriptome and proteome of skins from 45-days, 108-days and 365-days goat based on TMT-based quantitative proteomics and RNA-seq methods. In the three comparison groups, 356, 592 and 282 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were screened, respectively. KEGG pathway analysis indicated that DEPs were significantly enriched in a set of signaling pathways related to wool growth and bending, such as ECM-receptor interaction, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, PPAR signaling pathway, protein digestion and absorption, and metabolic pathways. In addition, 20 DEPs abundance of goat skin at three development stages were examined by PRM method, which validated the reliability of proteomic data. Among them, KRT and collagen alpha family may play an important role in the development of goat hair follicle and wool bending. COL6A1, COL6A2, CRNN, TNC and LOC102178129 were identified as candidate genes based on combined analysis of transcriptome and proteome data and PRM quantification. Our results identify the differential expressed proteins as well as pathways related to the wool bending of Zhongwei goats and provide a theoretical basis for further revealing the molecular mechanism underlying wool bending of goats.

Abstract
Heteromeric assembly of temperature-sensitive TRP ion channels has been suggested to underlie the molecular basis of fine-tuning of temperature detection and chemical sensation. However, whether warmth-temperature sensitive TRPV3 and TRPV4 channels robustly expressed in the skin can form heteromeric assembly remains largely unknown. In this study, we show that TRPV3 and TRPV4 channels can co-assemble into functional heterotetrameric channels with distinct properties. Confocal imaging reveals a co-localization and association of TRPV3 and TRPV4 proteins in cell membrane. Co-immunoprecipitation analysis demonstrates a strong protein-protein interaction between TRPV3 and TRPV4 subunits from heterogeneously expressed cells or mouse skin tissues through their C-termini, but not in TRPV3 knockout tissues. Co-expression of TRPV3 and TRPV4 channels yields a heterotetrameric channel complexes characterized by an intermediate single-channel conductance, distinct activation threshold and pharmacology. Taken together, our findings demonstrate a heterotetrameric assembly of TRPV3 and TRPV4 channels, which may help explain the role of temperature-sensitive TRPV channels in fine-tuning of environmental detection and sensation in the skin. Significance Statement The co-assembly of TRPV3 and TRPV4 channel complexes increases the functional diversity within the channel subfamily, which may serve as a molecular basis for fine-tuning of environmental detection and temperature sensation in mammals.

Abstract
The epidermis plays an indispensable barrier function in animals. Some species have evolved unique epidermal structures to adapt to different environments. Aquatic and semi‐aquatic mammals (cetaceans, manatees, and hippopotamus) are good models to study the evolution of epidermal structures because of their exceptionally thickened stratum spinosum, the lack of stratum granulosum, and the parakeratotic stratum corneum. This study aimed to analyze an upstream regulatory gene transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 3 (TRPV3) of epidermal differentiation so as to explore the association between TRPV3 evolution and epidermal changes in mammals. Inactivating mutations were detected in almost all the aquatic cetaceans and several terrestrial mammals. Relaxed selective pressure was examined in the cetacean lineages with inactivated TRPV3, which might contribute to its exceptionally thickened stratum spinosum as the significant thickening of stratum spinosum in TRPV3 knock‐out mouse. However, functional TRPV3 may exist in several terrestrial mammals due to their strong purifying selection, although they have “inactivating mutations.” Further, for intact sequences, relaxed selective constraints on the TRPV3 gene were also detected in aquatic cetaceans, manatees, and semi‐aquatic hippopotamus. However, they had intact TRPV3, suggesting that the accumulation of inactivating mutations might have lagged behind the relaxed selective pressure. The results of this study revealed the decay of TRPV3 being the genomic trace of epidermal development in aquatic and semi‐aquatic mammals. They provided insights into convergently evolutionary changes of epidermal structures during the transition from the terrestrial to the aquatic environment.

Abstract
Genetic gain-of-function mutations of warm temperature-sensitive transient receptor potential vanilloid 3 (TRPV3) channel cause Olmsted syndrome characterized by severe itching and keratoderma, indicating that pharmacological inhibition of TRPV3 may hold promise for therapy of chronic pruritus and skin diseases. However, currently available TRPV3 tool inhibitors are either nonselective or less potent, thus impeding the validation of TRPV3 as therapeutic target. Using whole-cell patch-clamp and single-channel recordings, we report the identification of two natural dicaffeoylquinic acid isomers isochlorogenic acid A (IAA) and isochlorogenic acid B (IAB) that selectively inhibit TRPV3 currents with IC50 values of 2.7 ± 1.3 and 0.9 ± 0.3 μmol/L, respectively, and reduce the channel open probability to 3.7 ± 1.2% and 3.2 ± 1.1% from 26.9 ± 5.5%, respectively. In vivo evaluation confirms that both IAA and IAB significantly reverse the ear swelling of dermatitis and chronic pruritus. Furthermore, the isomer IAB is able to rescue the keratinocyte death induced by TRPV3 agonist carvacrol. Molecular docking combined with site-directed mutations reveals two residues T636 and F666 critical for the binding of the two isomers. Taken together, our identification of isochlorogenic acids A and B that act as specific TRPV3 channel inhibitors and gating modifiers not only provides an essential pharmacological tool for further investigation of the channel pharmacology and pathology, but also holds developmental potential for treatment of dermatitis and chronic pruritus.

Abstract
Thermosensitive transient receptor potential V3 (TRPV3) is a polymodal receptor implicated in nociceptive, thermoceptive, pruritoceptive, and inflammatory pathways. Reports focused on understanding the role of TRPV3 in thermoception or nociception are not conclusive. Previous studies also show that aberrant hyperactivity of TRPV3 channels results in spontaneous itch and dermatitis-like symptoms, but the resultant behavior is highly dependent on the background of the animal and the skin microbiome. To determine the function of hyperactive TRPV3 channels in somatosensory sensations, we tested different somatosensory behaviors using a genetic mouse model that carries a gain-of-function point mutation G573S in the Trpv3 gene (Trpv3G573S). Here we report that Trpv3G573S mutants show reduced perception of cold, acetone-induced cooling, punctate, and sharp mechanical pain. By contrast, locomotion, noxious heat, touch, and mechanical itch are unaffected in Trpv3G573S mice. We fail to observe any spontaneous itch responses and/or dermatitis in Trpv3G573S mutants under specific pathogen (Staphylococcus aureus)-free conditions. However, we find that the scratching events in response to various pruritogens are dramatically decreased in Trpv3G573S mice in comparison to wild-type littermates. Interestingly, we observe sensory hypoinnervation of the epidermis in Trpv3G573S mutants, which might contribute to the deficits in acute mechanical pain, cool, cold, and itch sensations.

Determination of Chemical Irritation Potential Using a Defined Gene Signature Set on Tissue-Engineered Human Skin Equivalents. JID INNOVATIONS 2021; 1:100011. [PMID: 34909715 PMCID: PMC8659397 DOI: 10.1016/j.xjidi.2021.100011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2021] [Revised: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 02/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
There are no physical or visual manifestations that define skin sensitivity or irritation; a subjective diagnosis is made on the basis of the evaluation of clinical presentations, including burning, prickling, erythema, and itching. Adverse skin reaction in response to topically applied products is common and can limit the use of dermatological or cosmetic products. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of human skin equivalents based on immortalized skin keratinocytes and evaluate the potential of a 22-gene panel in combination with multivariate analysis to discriminate between chemicals known to act as irritants and those that do not. Test compounds were applied topically to full-thickness human skin equivalent or human ex vivo skin and gene signatures determined for known irritants and nonirritants. Principle component analysis showed the discriminatory potential of the 22-gene panel. Linear discrimination analysis, performed to further refine the gene set for a more high-throughput analysis, identified a putative seven-gene panel (IL-6, PTGS2, ATF3, TRPV3, MAP3K8, HMGB2, and matrix metalloproteinase gene MMP-3) that could distinguish potential irritants from nonirritants. These data offer promise as an in vitro prediction tool, although analysis of a large chemical test set is required to further evaluate the system.

Anti-Irritant Strategy against Retinol Based on the Genetic Analysis of Korean Population: A Genetically Guided Top-Down Approach. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13122006.

Abstract
Retinol, one of the most powerful cosmetic materials for anti-aging supported by a solid scientific background, exhibits a wide range of type and severity of irritation while showing limited user compliance. The lack of understanding of the mechanism of retinol-induced irritation has been the main hurdle in the development of anti-irritation strategies. Here, we identified 30 genetic markers related to the susceptibility to retinol-induced irritation in the Korean population. Based on the genetic analysis, a novel formula against retinol-induced irritation was developed, which mitigated the molecular pathogenesis—as indicated by the genetic markers—of the retinol-induced irritation. In human tests, this formula effectively decreased retinol-induced irritation. Furthermore, a polygenic risk score model for irritation was constructed and validated. Our comprehensive approach for the analysis of retinol-induced irritation will not only aid the development of anti-irritation strategies to ensure higher user compliance but also contribute to improving the current knowledge about the biological effects of retinoids.

Abstract
TRPV3, a representative of the vanilloid subfamily of TRP channels, is predominantly expressed in skin keratinocytes and has been implicated in cutaneous sensation and associated with numerous skin pathologies and cancers. TRPV3 is inhibited by the natural coumarin derivative osthole, an active ingredient of Cnidium monnieri, which has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of a variety of human diseases. However, the structural basis of channel inhibition by osthole has remained elusive. Here we present cryo-EM structures of TRPV3 in complex with osthole, revealing two types of osthole binding sites in the transmembrane region of TRPV3 that coincide with the binding sites of agonist 2-APB. Osthole binding converts the channel pore into a previously unidentified conformation with a widely open selectivity filter and closed intracellular gate. Our structures provide insight into competitive inhibition of TRPV3 by osthole and can serve as a template for the design of osthole chemistry-inspired drugs targeting TRPV3-associated diseases.

Abstract
Mutations of TRPV3 lead to severe dermal hyperkeratosis in Olmsted syndrome, but whether the mutants are trafficked to the cell membrane or not is controversial. Even less is known about TRPV3 function in intestinal epithelia, although research on ruminants and pigs suggests an involvement in the uptake of NH4+. It was the purpose of this study to measure the permeability of the human homologue (hTRPV3) to NH4+, to localize hTRPV3 in human skin equivalents, and to investigate trafficking of the Olmsted mutant G573S. Immunoblotting and immunostaining verified the successful expression of hTRPV3 in HEK-293 cells and Xenopus oocytes with trafficking to the cell membrane. Human skin equivalents showed distinct staining of the apical membrane of the top layer of keratinocytes with cytosolic staining in the middle layers. Experiments with pH-sensitive microelectrodes on Xenopus oocytes demonstrated that acidification by NH4+ was significantly greater when hTRPV3 was expressed. Single-channel measurements showed larger conductances in overexpressing Xenopus oocytes than in controls. In whole-cell experiments on HEK-293 cells, both enantiomers of menthol stimulated influx of NH4+ in hTRPV3 expressing cells, but not in controls. Expression of the mutant G573S greatly reduced cell viability with partial rescue via ruthenium red. Immunofluorescence confirmed cytosolic expression, with membrane staining observed in a very small number of cells. We suggest that expression of TRPV3 by epithelia may have implications not just for Ca2+ signalling, but also for nitrogen metabolism. Models suggesting how influx of NH4+ via TRPV3 might stimulate skin cornification or intestinal NH4+ transport are discussed.

Abstract
Air pollutants are in the spotlight because the human body can easily be exposed to them. Among air pollutants, the particulate matter (PM) represents one of the most serious toxicants that can enter the human body through various exposure routes. PMs have various adverse effects and classified as severe carcinogen by International Agency for Research on Cancer. Their physical and chemical characteristics are distinguished by their size. In this review, we summarized the published information on the physicochemical characteristics and adverse effects of PMs on the skin, including carcinogenicity. Through comparisons of biological networks constructed from relationships discussed in the previous scientific publications, we show it is possible to predict skin cancers and other disorders from particle-size-specific signaling alterations of PM-responsive genes. Our review not only helps to grasp the biological association between ambient PMs and skin diseases including cancer, but also provides new approaches to interpret chemical-gene-disease associations regarding the adverse effects of these heterogeneous particles.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are multifunctional signalling molecules with many roles in sensory perception and cellular physiology. Therefore, it is not surprising that TRP channels have been implicated in numerous diseases, including hereditary disorders caused by defects in genes encoding TRP channels (TRP channelopathies). Most TRP channels are located at the cell surface, which makes them generally accessible drug targets. Early drug discovery efforts to target TRP channels focused on pain, but as our knowledge of TRP channels and their role in health and disease has grown, these efforts have expanded into new clinical indications, ranging from respiratory disorders through neurological and psychiatric diseases to diabetes and cancer. In this Review, we discuss recent findings in TRP channel structural biology that can affect both drug development and clinical indications. We also discuss the clinical promise of novel TRP channel modulators, aimed at both established and emerging targets. Last, we address the challenges that these compounds may face in clinical practice, including the need for carefully targeted approaches to minimize potential side-effects due to the multifunctional roles of TRP channels.

Abstract
Dysfunctional skin barrier and impaired skin homeostasis may lead to or aggravate a series of dermatologic diseases. A large variety of biological events and bioactive molecules are involved in the process of skin wound healing and functional recovery. Calcium ions (Ca2+) released from intracellular stores as well as influx through plasma membrane are essential to skin function. Growing evidence suggests that calcium influx is mainly regulated by calcium-sensing receptors and channels, including voltage-gated, transient potential receptor, store-operated, and receptor-operated calcium channels, which not only maintain cellular Ca2+ homeostasis, but also participate in cell proliferation and skin cell homeostasis through Ca2+-sensitive proteins such as calmodulin (CaM). Furthermore, distinct types of Ca2+ channels not merely work separately, they may work concertedly to regulate cell function. In this review, we discussed different calcium-sensing receptors and channels, including voltage-gated, transient receptor potential, store-operated, and receptor-operated calcium channels, particularly focusing on their regulatory functions and inherent interactions as well as calcium channels-related reagents and drugs, which is expected to bridge basic research and clinical applications in dermatologic diseases.
