[PMID: 37770155 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphs.2023.09.001] [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: 06/03/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteoblasts synthesize and deposit essential components of the extracellular bone matrix and collagen scaffolds, leading to mineralized bone formation. Therefore, the proliferation of preosteoblasts (precursors of mature osteoblasts) helps in regulating skeletal homeostasis. This study demonstrated that the functional expression of KCa3.1, an intermediate-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel, is markedly upregulated in murine preosteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells in the G0/G1 phase. The enhancement of KCa3.1 is involved in the establishment of more negative membrane potentials in MC3T3-E1 cells. This hyperpolarization can promote intracellular Ca2+ signaling because store-operated Ca2+ channels are activated. Treatment with TRAM-34, a specific KCa3.1 inhibitor, attenuated the cell cycle progression from the G0/G1 phase to the S/G2/M phases. In MC3T3-E1 cells, KCa3.1 significantly promoted the transition from the G1 phase to the S phase. KCa3.1 inhibition also caused G0 phase cell accumulation. Furthermore, TRAM-34 decreased the expression of alkaline phosphatase, bone sialoprotein, and osteocalcin, osteoblast differentiation markers in MC3T3-E1 cells, and inhibited the endochondral ossification of murine metatarsals. These results reveal novel ways by which KCa3.1 activity can strongly modulate osteoblast maturation during bone formation.

Kim A, Kim AR, Jeon YE, Yoo YJ, Yang YM, Bak EJ. TRPC expression in human periodontal ligament cells and the periodontal tissue of periodontitis mice: a preliminary study. Lab Anim Res 2023; 39:19. [PMID: 37653550 PMCID: PMC10472569 DOI: 10.1186/s42826-023-00171-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 08/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are non-selective cationic channels with permeability to Ca2+ and Na+. Despite their importance, there are currently few studies on TRPC in the periodontal ligament (PDL) and bone cells in the dental field. To provide biological information regarding TRPC in PDL cells and periodontal tissue, we evaluated TRPC channels expression in the osteoblast differentiation of PDL cells and periodontitis-induced tissue. Human PDL cells were cultured in osteogenic differentiation media for 28 days, and the expression of Runx2, osteocalcin (OCN), and TRPC1, 3, 4, and 6 was evaluated by real-time PCR. In ligature-induced periodontitis mice, the alveolar bone and osteoid areas, the osteoclast number, and the expression of Runx2, OCN, TRPC3, and TRPC6 was evaluated by H&E staining, TRAP staining, and immunohistochemistry, respectively. RESULTS In the PDL cell differentiation group, TRPC6 expression peaked on day 7 and TRPC3 expression generally increased during differentiation. During the 28 days of periodontitis progression, alveolar bone loss and osteoclast numbers increased compared to the control group during the experimental period and the osteoid area increased from day 14. TRPC6 expression in the periodontitis group increased in the PDL area and in the osteoblasts compared to the control group, whereas TRPC3 expression increased only in the PDL area on days 7 and 28. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate changes of TRPC3 and TRPC6 expression in PDL cells that were differentiating into osteoblasts and in periodontitis-induced tissue, suggesting the need for research on the role of TRPC in osteoblast differentiation or periodontitis progression.

The Impact of Plasma Membrane Ion Channels on Bone Remodeling in Response to Mechanical Stress, Oxidative Imbalance, and Acidosis. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12030689. [PMID: 36978936 PMCID: PMC10045377 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12030689] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 03/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023] Open
Abstract
The extracellular milieu is a rich source of different stimuli and stressors. Some of them depend on the chemical–physical features of the matrix, while others may come from the ‘outer’ environment, as in the case of mechanical loading applied on the bones. In addition to these forces, a plethora of chemical signals drives cell physiology and fate, possibly leading to dysfunctions when the homeostasis is disrupted. This variety of stimuli triggers different responses among the tissues: bones represent a particular milieu in which a fragile balance between mechanical and metabolic demands should be tuned and maintained by the concerted activity of cell biomolecules located at the interface between external and internal environments. Plasma membrane ion channels can be viewed as multifunctional protein machines that act as rapid and selective dual-nature hubs, sensors, and transducers. Here we focus on some multisensory ion channels (belonging to Piezo, TRP, ASIC/EnaC, P2XR, Connexin, and Pannexin families) actually or potentially playing a significant role in bone adaptation to three main stressors, mechanical forces, oxidative stress, and acidosis, through their effects on bone cells including mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and osteocytes. Ion channel-mediated bone remodeling occurs in physiological processes, aging, and human diseases such as osteoporosis, cancer, and traumatic events.

Abstract
Mechanical stress is an important regulatory factor in bone homeostasis. Mechanical stimulation of osteoblasts has been shown to elicit an increase in the concentration of intracellular free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). The pattern of functional expression of mechanosensitive ion channels remains unclear, however. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the pharmacological characteristics of [Ca2+]i in response to direct mechanical stimulation in osteoblasts. The morphological expression of mechanosensitive ion channels was also examined. Mouse osteoblast-like cells (MC3T3-E1 cells) were loaded with fura-2-acetoxymethyl ester, after which [Ca2+]i was measured. Increased levels of [Ca2+]i were observed in MC3T3-E1 cells in response to direct mechanical stimulation by means of a glass micropipette, but no desensitization. Application of a hypotonic solution also induced an increase in [Ca2+]i but was accompanied by a desensitizing effect. Extracellular Gd3+, GsMTx4, or RN-1734 reversibly inhibited this mechanical stimulation-induced increase in [Ca2+]i, whereas no inhibitory effect was observed with HC030031 or clemizole. When osteoblasts were stimulated with Yoda1, an increase was observed in [Ca2+]i together with a significant desensitizing effect. Immunoreactivity against Piezo1 and TRPV4 channel antibodies was detected in MC3T3-E1 cells. These results suggest that osteoblasts express Piezo1 and TRPV4 channels, which are involved in mechanosensitive processes during mechanical stress.

Multiparity and Aging Impact Chondrogenic and Osteogenic Potential at Symphyseal Enthesis: New Insights into Interpubic Joint Remodeling. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24054573.

Abstract
Pregnancy and childbirth cause adaptations to the birth canal to allow for delivery and fast recovery. To accommodate delivery through the birth canal, the pubic symphysis undergoes changes that lead to the interpubic ligament (IpL) and enthesis formation in primiparous mice. However, successive deliveries influence joint recovery. We aimed to understand tissue morphology and chondrogenic and osteogenic potential at symphyseal enthesis during pregnancy and postpartum in primiparous and multiparous senescent female mice. Morphological and molecular differences were found at the symphyseal enthesis among the study groups. Despite the apparent incapacity to restore cartilage in multiparous senescent animals, the symphyseal enthesis cells are active. However, these cells have reduced expression of chondrogenic and osteogenic markers and are immersed in densely packed collagen fibers contiguous to the persistent IpL. These findings may indicate alterations of key molecules in the progenitor cell population maintenance of the chondrocytic and osteogenic lineages at the symphyseal enthesis in multiparous senescent animals, possibly compromising the mouse joint histoarchitecture recovery. This sheds light on the distention of the birth canal and the pelvic floor that may play a role in pubic symphysis diastasis (PSD) and pelvic organ prolapse (POP), both in orthopedic and urogynecological practice in women.

Abstract
A major cause of osteoporosis is impaired coupled bone formation. Mechanistically, both osteoclast-derived and bone-derived growth factors have been previously implicated. We hypothesize that the release of bone calcium during osteoclastic bone resorption is essential for coupled bone formation. Osteoclastic resorption increases interstitial fluid calcium locally from the normal 1.8 mM up to 5 mM. MC3T3-E1 osteoprogenitors, cultured in a 3.6 mM calcium medium, demonstrated that calcium signaling stimulated osteogenic cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration. Calcium channel knockdown studies implicated calcium channels, Cav1.2, store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), and calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) in regulating bone cell anabolic activities. MC3T3-E1 cultured in a 3.6 mM calcium medium expressed increased gene expression of Wnt signaling and growth factors platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP 2). Our coupling model of bone formation, the Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa-Β ligand (RANKL) treated mouse calvaria, confirmed the role of calcium signaling in coupled bone formation by exhibiting increased gene expression for osterix and osteocalcin. Critically, dual immunocytochemistry showed that RANKL treatment increased osterix positive cells and increased fluorescence intensity of Cav1.2 and CaSR protein expression per osterix positive cell. The data established that calcium released by osteoclasts contributed to the regulation of coupled bone formation. CRISPR/Cas-9 knockout of Cav1.2 in osteoprogenitors cultured in basal calcium medium caused a >80% decrease in the expression of downstream osteogenic genes, emphasizing the large magnitude of the effect of calcium signaling. Thus, calcium signaling is a major regulator of coupled bone formation.

Abstract
In the last several decades, a large family of ion channels have been identified and studied intensively as cellular sensors for diverse physical and/or chemical stimuli. Named transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, they play critical roles in various aspects of cellular physiology. A large number of human hereditary diseases are found to be linked to TRP channel mutations, and their dysregulations lead to acute or chronical health problems. As TRP channels are named and categorized mostly based on sequence homology rather than functional similarities, they exhibit substantial functional diversity. Rapid advances in TRP channel study have been made in recent years and reported in a vast body of literature; a summary of the latest advancements becomes necessary. This chapter offers an overview of current understandings of TRP channel distribution and subunit assembly.

The mechanosensory and mechanotransductive processes mediated by ion channels and the impact on bone metabolism: A systematic review. Arch Biochem Biophys 2021; 711:109020.

Abstract
Mechanical environments were associated with alterations in bone metabolism. Ion channels present on bone cells are indispensable for bone metabolism and can be directly or indirectly activated by mechanical stimulation. This review aimed to discuss the literature reporting the mechanical regulatory effects of ion channels on bone cells and bone tissue. An electronic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase and Web of Science. Studies about mechanically induced alteration of bone cells and bone tissue by ion channels were included. Ion channels including TRP family channels, Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ channels (CRACs), Piezo1/2 channels, purinergic receptors, NMDA receptors, voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCCs), TREK2 potassium channels, calcium- and voltage-dependent big conductance potassium (BKCa) channels, small conductance, calcium-activated potassium (SKCa) channels and epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) present on bone cells and bone tissue participate in the mechanical regulation of bone development in addition to contributing to direct or indirect mechanotransduction such as altered membrane potential and ionic flux. Physiological (beneficial) mechanical stimulation could induce the anabolism of bone cells and bone tissue through ion channels, but abnormal (harmful) mechanical stimulation could also induce the catabolism of bone cells and bone tissue through ion channels. Functional expression of ion channels is vital for the mechanotransduction of bone cells. Mechanical activation (opening) of ion channels triggers ion influx and induces the activation of intracellular modulators that can influence bone metabolism. Therefore, mechanosensitive ion channels provide new insights into therapeutic targets for the treatment of bone-related diseases such as osteopenia and aseptic implant loosening.

Abstract
Trpm8 (transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily M, member 8) is expressed by sensory neurons and is involved in the detection of environmental cold temperatures. TRPM8 activity triggers an increase in uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1)-dependent brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis. Bone density and marrow adipose tissue are both influenced by rodent housing temperature and brown adipose tissue, but it is unknown if TRPM8 is involved in the co-regulation of thermogenesis and bone homeostasis. To address this, we examined the bone phenotypes of one-year-old Trpm8 knockout mice (Trpm8-KO) after a 4-week cold temperature challenge. Male Trpm8-KO mice had lower bone mineral density than WT, with smaller bone size (femur length and cross-sectional area) being the most striking finding, and exhibited a delayed cold acclimation with increased BAT expression of Dio2 and Cidea compared to WT. In contrast to males, female Trpm8-KO mice had low vertebral bone microarchitectural parameters, but no genotype-specific alterations in body temperature. Interestingly, Trpm8 was not required for cold-induced trabecular bone loss in either sex, but bone marrow adipose tissue in females was significantly suppressed by Trpm8 deletion. In summary, we identified sex differences in the role of TRPM8 in maintaining body temperature, bone microarchitecture and marrow adipose tissue. Identifying mechanisms through which cold temperature and BAT influence bone could help to ameliorate potential bone side effects of obesity treatments designed to stimulate thermogenesis.

Abstract
AIMS Far-infrared (FIR) irradiation inhibits adipogenic differentiation of tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells (TMSCs) by activating Ca2+-dependent protein phosphatase 2B (PP2B), but it stimulates osteogenic differentiation in a PP2B-independent pathway. We investigated the potential involvement of transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) channels, a well-known Ca2+-permeable channel, in the effects of FIR irradiation on adipogenic or osteogenic differentiation of TMSCs. METHODS TMSCs, in the absence or presence of activators or inhibitors, were exposed to FIR irradiation followed by adipogenic or osteogenic differentiation, which was assessed using Oil red O or Alizarin red S staining, respectively. RT-PCR, qRT-PCR, and Western blotting were used to determine gene and protein expression of calcium channels and adipocyte-specific markers. RESULTS Treatment with the calcium ionophore ionomycin simulated the inhibitory effect of FIR irradiation on adipogenic differentiation but had no effect on osteogenic differentiation, indicating the involvement of intracellular Ca2+ in adipogenic differentiation. Inhibition of pan-TRP channels using ruthenium red reversed the FIR irradiation-induced inhibition of adipogenic differentiation. Among the TRP channels tested, inhibition of the TRPV2 channel by tranilast or siRNA against TRPV2 attenuated the inhibitory effect of FIR irradiation on adipogenic differentiation, accompanied by a decrease in intracellular Ca2+ levels. By contrast, activation of the TRPV2 channel by probenecid simulated FIR irradiation-induced inhibition of adipogenic differentiation. Expectedly, the stimulatory effect of FIR irradiation on osteogenic differentiation was independent of the TRPV2 channel. CONCLUSION Our data demonstrate that the TRPV2 channel is a sensor/receptor for the inhibited adipogenic differentiation of TMSCs associated with FIR irradiation.

Abstract
In U-2 OS and MNNG-HOS osteosarcoma cells, small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of the angiotensin-(1-7) receptor, Mas, increases cell proliferation. Whether alterations in canonical transient receptor potential channels (TRPC) expression contribute to this effect is not clear. In the present study, a basic description of TRPC subtype expression in osteosarcoma cell lines was provided. The pharmacological modulators of the angiotensin-(1-7) receptor, Mas, AVE0991 (agonist), or D-Ala7-Ang-(1-7) (antagonist) were applied to elucidate a possible role of Mas in the regulation of TRPC mRNA levels. The contribution of other G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) or receptor tyrosine kinases to TRCP expression was studied by applying the selective pharmacological blockers of either PI3 kinase or MEK/Erk1/2 signaling, Ly294002 and PD98059. AVE0991 and D-Ala7-Ang-(1-7) exhibited no or marginal effects on TRPC mRNA expression. Ly294002 provoked a 9.6- and 5.9-fold increase in the amounts of TRPC5 mRNA in MNNG-HOS and U-2 OS cells, respectively. Additionally, Ly294002 increased TRPC6 mRNA levels; however, it had no effect on TRPCs 1, 3 and 4. Administration of PD98059 increased the amounts of TRPC6 and TRPC4 ~2-fold. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that Mas-dependent alterations in osteosarcoma cell line proliferation were not mediated by any changes in TRPC subtype gene expression. The data shows in principle, and consistent with the literature, that the signaling pathways examined can regulate the expression of TRPCs at the mRNA level. Therefore, direct and signaling pathway-specific pharmacological targeting of TRPC subtypes may represent an option for improving the treatment of osteosarcoma.

TRPM8 channel inhibitor-encapsulated hydrogel as a tunable surface for bone tissue engineering. Sci Rep 2021; 11:3730.

Abstract
A major limitation in the bio-medical sector is the availability of materials suitable for bone tissue engineering using stem cells and methodology converting the stochastic biological events towards definitive as well as efficient bio-mineralization. We show that osteoblasts and Bone Marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Pools (BM-MSCP) express TRPM8, a Ca2+-ion channel critical for bone-mineralization. TRPM8 inhibition triggers up-regulation of key osteogenesis factors; and increases mineralization by osteoblasts. We utilized CMT:HEMA, a carbohydrate polymer-based hydrogel that has nanofiber-like structure suitable for optimum delivery of TRPM8-specific activators or inhibitors. This hydrogel is ideal for proper adhesion, growth, and differentiation of osteoblast cell lines, primary osteoblasts, and BM-MSCP. CMT:HEMA coated with AMTB (TRPM8 inhibitor) induces differentiation of BM-MSCP into osteoblasts and subsequent mineralization in a dose-dependent manner. Prolonged and optimum inhibition of TRPM8 by AMTB released from the gels results in upregulation of osteogenic markers. We propose that AMTB-coated CMT:HEMA can be used as a tunable surface for bone tissue engineering. These findings may have broad implications in different bio-medical sectors.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Skeletal adaptation to mechanical loading plays a critical role in bone growth and the maintenance of bone homeostasis. Osteocytes are postulated to serve as a hub orchestrating bone remodeling. The recent findings on the molecular mechanisms by which osteocytes sense mechanical loads and the downstream bone-forming factors are reviewed. RECENT FINDINGS Calcium channels have been implicated in mechanotransduction in bone cells for a long time. Efforts have been made to identify a specific calcium channel mediating the skeletal response to mechanical loads. Recent studies have revealed that Piezo1, a mechanosensitive ion channel, is critical for normal bone growth and is essential for the skeletal response to mechanical loading. Identification of mechanosensors and their downstream effectors in mechanosensing bone cells is essential for new strategies to modulate regenerative responses and develop therapies to treat the bone loss related to disuse or advanced age.

Abstract
Enhanced osteoclast formation and function is a fundamental cause of alterations to bone structure and plays an important role in several diseases impairing bone quality. Recent work revealed that TRP calcium channels 3 and 6 might play a special role in this context. By analyzing the bone phenotype of TRPC6-deficient mice we detected a regulatory effect of TRPC3 on osteoclast function. These mice exhibit a significant decrease in bone volume per tissue volume, trabecular thickness and -number together with an increased number of osteoclasts found on the surface of trabecular bone. Primary bone marrow mononuclear cells from TRPC6-deficient mice showed enhanced osteoclastic differentiation and resorptive activity. This was confirmed in vitro by using TRPC6-deficient RAW 264.7 cells. TRPC6 deficiency led to an increase of TRPC3 in osteoclasts, suggesting that TRPC3 overcompensates for the loss of TRPC6. Raised intracellular calcium levels led to enhanced NFAT-luciferase reporter gene activity in the absence of TRPC6. In line with these findings inhibition of TRPC3 using the specific inhibitor Pyr3 significantly reduced intracellular calcium concentrations and normalized osteoclastic differentiation and resorptive activity of TRPC6-deficient cells. Interestingly, an up-regulation of TRPC3 could be detected in a cohort of patients with low bone mineral density by comparing micro array data sets of circulating human osteoclast precursor cells to those from patients with high bone mineral density, suggesting a noticeable contribution of TRP calcium channels on bone quality. These observations demonstrate a novel regulatory function of TRPC channels in the process of osteoclastic differentiation and bone loss.

Abstract
Skeletal involvement is a frequent and troublesome complication in advanced cancers. In the process of tumor cells homing to the skeleton to form bone metastases (BM), different mechanisms allow tumor cells to interact with cells of the bone microenvironment and seed in the bone tissue. Among these, tumor acidosis has been directly associated with tumor invasion and aggressiveness in several types of cancer although it has been less explored in the context of BM. In bone, the association of local acidosis and cancer invasiveness is even more important for tumor expansion since the extracellular matrix is formed by both organic and hard inorganic matrices and bone cells are used to sense protons and adapt or react to a low pH to maintain tissue homeostasis. In the BM microenvironment, increased concentration of protons may derive not only from glycolytic tumor cells but also from tumor-induced osteoclasts, the bone-resorbing cells, and may influence the progression or symptoms of BM in many different ways, by directly enhancing cancer cell motility and aggressiveness, or by modulating the functions of bone cells versus a pro-tumorigenic phenotype, or by inducing bone pain. In this review, we will describe and discuss the cause of acidosis in BM, its role in BM microenvironment, and which are the final effectors that may be targeted to treat metastatic patients.

Abstract
Fracture healing and bone regeneration, particularly in the elderly, remains a challenge. There is an ongoing search for methods to activate osteoblasts, and the application of electrical fields is an attractive approach in this context. Although it is known that such electromagnetic fields lead to osteoblast migration and foster mesenchymal osteogenic differentiation, so far the mechanisms of osteoblast activation remain unclear. Possible mechanisms could rely on changes in Ca2+-influx via ion channels, as these are known to modulate osteoblast activity, e.g., via voltage-sensitive, stretch-sensitive, transient-receptor-potential (TRP) channels, or store-operated release. In the present in vitro study, we explored whether electrical fields are able to modulate the expression of voltage-sensitive calcium channels as well as TRP channels in primary human osteoblast cell lines. We show migration speed is significantly increased in stimulated osteoblasts (6.4 ± 2.1 μm/h stimulated, 3.6 ± 1.1 μm/h control), and directed toward the anode. However, within a range of 154–445 V/m, field strength did not correlate with migration velocity. Neither was there a correlation between electric field and voltage-gated calcium channel (Cav3.2 and Cav1.4) expression. However, the expression of TRPM7 significantly correlated positively to electric field strength. TRPM7 channel blockade using NS8593, in turn, did not significantly alter migration speed, nor did blockade of Cav3.2 and Cav1.4 channels using Ni+ or verapamil, respectively, while a general Ca2+-influx block using Mg2+ accelerated migration. Stimulating store-operated Ca2+-release significantly reduced migration speed, while blocking IP3 had only a minor effect (at low and high concentrations of 2-APB, respectively). We conclude that (i) store operated channels negatively modulate migration speed and that (ii) the upregulation of TRPM7 might constitute a compensatory mechanism-which might explain how increasing expression levels at increasing field strengths result in constant migration speeds.

Abstract
Bone size is an important trait for chickens because of its association with osteoporosis in layers and meat production in broilers. Here, we employed high density genotyping platforms to detect candidate genes for bone traits. Estimates of the narrow heritabilities ranged from 0.37 ± 0.04 for shank length to 0.59 ± 0.04 for tibia length. The dominance heritability was 0.12 ± 0.04 for shank length. Using a linear mixed model approach, we identified a promising locus within NCAPG on chromosome 4, which was associated with tibia length and mass, femur length and area, and shank length. In addition, three other loci were associated with bone size or mass at a Bonferroni-corrected genome-wide significance threshold of 1%. One region on chicken chromosome 1 between 168.38 and 171.82 Mb harbored HTR2A, LPAR6, CAB39L, and TRPC4. A second region that accounted for 2.2% of the phenotypic variance was located around WNT9A on chromosome 2, where allele substitution was predicted to be associated with tibia length. Four candidate genes identified on chromosome 27 comprising SPOP, NGFR, GIP, and HOXB3 were associated with tibia length and mass, femur length and area, and shank length. Genome partitioning analysis indicated that the variance explained by each chromosome was proportional to its length.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) directly interacts with bone remodeling osteoblasts and osteocytes expressing the G-protein coupled receptor PTH receptor 1 (PTH1R), and its osteoanabolic effects mostly involve the cAMP/PKA signaling cascade. Considering that PTH-dependent calcium entry in rat enterocytes is reproduced by the adenylate cyclase agonist forskolin or by cAMP analogues, possible involvement of calcium as a second messenger in PTH-dependent cAMP signaling was investigated in MG-63 cells. First, Ca2+ influx was confirmed in Fluo3-loaded MG-63 cells treated with a cell-permeable cAMP analog. Second, PTH (1-34) and forskolin promoted calcium influxes that were completely abrogated by the PKA inhibitor H-89. Ca2+ entry was not reproduced when PTH (1-34) was combined with the PKC-activating competitor PTH (3-34). Vanilloid transient potential (TRPV) channel inhibitor Ruthenium Red, but not a voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) inhibitor nifedipine, efficiently stunted Ca2+ entry, and comparable abrogation was reproduced in cells treated with TRPV4-selective inhibitor RN-1734 or transfected with TRPV4-specific siRNA. Interestingly, PTH-driven Ca2+ through TRPV4 significantly inhibited MG63 cell migration through a mechanism requiring extracellular Ca2+. In contrast, the inhibitory effects of forskolin on migration were refractory to TRPV4 silencing or to RN-1734. Altogether, our results indicate that single treatment with PTH (1-34) promotes extracellular calcium entry through TRPV4 channels in MG-63 cells through a cAMP/PKA-dependent mechanism, and that this influx affects cell migration.

Abstract
AbstractBone constantly remodels between resorption by osteoclasts and formation by osteoblasts; therefore the functions of osteoblasts are pivotal for maintaining homeostasis of bone mass. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4), a type of mechanosensitive channel, has been reported to be a key regulator in bone remodeling. However, the relationship between TRPV4 and osteoblast function remains largely elusive. Only little is known about the spatial distribution change of TRPV4 during osteoblastic differentiation and related signal events. Based on three-dimensional super-resolution microscopy, our results clearly showed a different distribution of TRPV4 in undifferentiated and differentiated osteoblasts, which reflected the plasma membrane translocation of TRPV4 along with prolonged differentiation. GSK1016790A (GSK101), the most potent agonist of TRPV4, triggered rapid calcium entry and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) phosphorylation via TRPV4 activation in a differentiation-dependent manner, indicating that the abundance of TRPV4 at the cell surface resulting from differentiation may be related to the modulation of Ca2+ response and CaMKII activity. These data provide compelling evidences for the plasma membrane translocation of TRPV4 during osteoblastic differentiation as well as demonstrate the regulation of downstream Ca2+/CaMKII signaling.

PIEZO1 and TRPV4, which Are Distinct Mechano-Sensors in the Osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 Cells, Modify Cell-Proliferation. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20194960.

Abstract
Mechanical-loading and unloading can modify osteoblast functioning. Ca2+ signaling is one of the earliest events in osteoblasts to induce a mechanical stimulus, thereby demonstrating the importance of the underlying mechanical sensors for the sensation. Here, we examined the mechano-sensitive channels PIEZO1 and TRPV4 were involved in the process of mechano-sensation in the osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. The analysis of mRNA expression revealed a high expression of Piezo1 and Trpv4 in these cells. We also found that a PIEZO1 agonist, Yoda1, induced Ca2+ response and activated cationic currents in these cells. Ca2+ response was elicited when mechanical stimulation (MS), with shear stress, was induced by fluid flow in the MC3T3-E1 cells. Gene knockdown of Piezo1 in the MC3T3-E1 cells, by transfection with siPiezo1, inhibited the Yoda1-induced response, but failed to inhibit the MS-induced response. When MC3T3-E1 cells were transfected with siTrpv4, the MS-induced response was abolished and Yoda1 response was attenuated. Moreover, the MS-induced response was inhibited by a TRPV4 antagonist HC-067047 (HC). Yoda1 response was also inhibited by HC in MC3T3-E1 cells and HEK cells, expressing both PIEZO1 and TRPV4. Meanwhile, the activation of PIEZO1 and TRPV4 reduced the proliferation of MC3T3-E1, which was reversed by knockdown of PIEZO1, and TRPV4, respectively. In conclusion, TRPV4 and PIEZO1 are distinct mechano-sensors in the MC3T3-E1 cells. However, PIEZO1 and TRPV4 modify the proliferation of these cells, implying that PIEZO1 and TRPV4 may be functional in the osteoblastic mechano-transduction. Notably, it is also found that Yoda1 can induce TRPV4-dependent Ca2+ response, when both PIEZO1 and TRPV4 are highly expressed.

Abstract
Mechanical loading, such as caused by exercise, stimulates bone formation by osteoblasts and increases bone strength, but the mechanisms are poorly understood. Osteocytes reside in bone matrix, sense changes in mechanical load, and produce signals that alter bone formation by osteoblasts. We report that the ion channel Piezo1 is required for changes in gene expression induced by fluid shear stress in cultured osteocytes and stimulation of Piezo1 by a small molecule agonist is sufficient to replicate the effects of fluid flow on osteocytes. Conditional deletion of Piezo1 in osteoblasts and osteocytes notably reduced bone mass and strength in mice. Conversely, administration of a Piezo1 agonist to adult mice increased bone mass, mimicking the effects of mechanical loading. These results demonstrate that Piezo1 is a mechanosensitive ion channel by which osteoblast lineage cells sense and respond to changes in mechanical load and identify a novel target for anabolic bone therapy.

Abstract
Human body is subject to many and variegated mechanical stimuli, actuated in different ranges of force, frequency, and duration. The process through which cells "feel" forces and convert them into biochemical cascades is called mechanotransduction. In this review, the effects of fluid shear stress on bone cells will be presented. After an introduction to present the major players in bone system, we describe the mechanoreceptors in bone tissue that can feel and process fluid flow. In the second part of the review, we present an overview of the biological processes and biochemical cascades initiated by fluid shear stress in bone cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of miRNAs in cancer is increasingly becoming a hot research topic. There have been relatively few studies on miR-567 in cancer, and its functional role in colorectal cancer (CRC) is still little understood.
AIM To investigate the effect of miR-567 on proliferation and apoptosis of CRC cells and the underlying mechanism.
METHODS qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-567 and transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) in the CRC cell lines SW480, SW1116, and HT29 as well as in the normal colorectal epithelial cell line NCM460. SW480 cells were transfected with miR-NC, miR-567 mimic, si-NC, si-TRPM8, miR-567 + pcDNA, or miR-567 + pcDNA-TRPM8 by using the liposome method. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay; cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry; protein expression of TRPM8, CyclinD1, p21, p23, Bcl-2, Bax, and cleaved Capase-3 was detected by Western blot; and the fluorescence activity was detected by double luciferase reporter gene assay.
RESULTS Compared with normal colonic epithelial cells (NCM460), the expression of miR-567 was significantly decreased in CRC cells, and the expression of TRPM8 was significantly increased. Overexpression of miR-567 or inhibition of TRPM8 inhibited the proliferation and promoted apoptosis of SW480 cells. MiR-567 can inhibit the fluorescence activity of wild-type TRPM8 cells and negatively regulate the expression of TRPM8, while overexpression of TRPM8 reversed the proliferation inhibition and apoptosis-promoting effect of miR-567 overexpression in SW480 cells.
CONCLUSION MiR-567 can inhibit the proliferation of CRC cells and promote their apoptosis via a mechanism possibly related to the targeting of TRPM8. This finding will provide a new direction for the prevention and treatment of CRC.

Zoledronic Acid Modulation of TRPV1 Channel Currents in Osteoblast Cell Line and Native Rat and Mouse Bone Marrow-Derived Osteoblasts: Cell Proliferation and Mineralization Effect. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11020206.

Abstract
Bisphosphonates (BPs) reduce bone pain and fractures by balancing the osteoblast/osteoclast ratio. The behavior of ion channels in the presence of BPs is not known. To investigate this, the effect of zoledronic acid BP (ZOL) (3 × 10−8 to 5 × 10−4 M) treatment, on ion channels, cell proliferation, and mineralization, has been investigated on preosteoclast-like cells, RAW264.7, preosteoblast-like cells MC3T3-E1, and rat/mouse native bone marrow-derived osteoblasts. In whole-cell patch clamp on cell line- and bone marrow-derived osteoblasts, ZOL potentiated outward currents. On RAW264.7, ZOL (10−4 M)-evoked current was reduced by the Kv channel blocker tetraethylammonium hydrochloride (TEA), but not by the selective TRPV1-channel antagonist capsazepine. On MC3T3-E1 cells and bone marrow-derived osteoblasts, ZOL-evoked current (5 × 10−8 to 10−4 M) was reduced by capsazepine, whereas the selective TRPV1-channel agonist capsaicin potentiated the control current. In the cell proliferation assay, 72 h incubation of RAW264.7 and MC3T3-E1 cells with ZOL reduced proliferation, with IC50 values of 2.62 × 10−7 M and 2.02 × 10−5 M, respectively. Mineralization of MC3T3-E1 cells and bone marrow-derived osteoblasts was observed in the presence of capsaicin and ZOL (5 × 10−8–10−7 M); ZOL effects were antagonized by capsazepine. In summary, the ZOL-induced activation of TRPV1 channel mediates the mineralization of osteoblasts and counterbalances the antiproliferative effects, increasing the IC50. This mechanism is not operative in osteoclasts lacking the TRPV1 channel.

Abstract
To examine whether TRPM7, a member of the melastatin family of transient receptor potential channels, is a physiological pathway for Mg2+ entry in mammalian cells, we studied the effect of TRPM7 regulators on cytoplasmic free Mg2+ concentration ([Mg2+]i) of rat ventricular myocytes. Acutely isolated single cells were AM-loaded with the fluorescent indicator furaptra, and [Mg2+]i was estimated at 25 °C. After [Mg2+]i was lowered by soaking the cells with a high-K+ and Mg2+-Ca2+-free solution, [Mg2+]i was recovered by extracellular perfusion of Ca2+-free Tyrode's solution that contained 1 mM Mg2+. The initial rate of increase in [Mg2+]i was analyzed as the Mg2+ influx rate. The Mg2+ influx rate was increased by the TRPM7 activator, naltriben (2-50 μM), in a concentration-dependent manner with a half maximal effective concentration (EC50) of 24 μM. This EC50 value is similar to that reported for the activation of recombinant TRPM7 overexpressed in HEK293 cells. Naltriben (50 μM) caused little change in basal [Mg2+]i (~ 0.9 mM) in Ca2+-free Tyrode's solution, but significantly raised [Mg2+]i to 1.31 ± 0.03 mM in 94 min after the removal of extracellular Na+. Re-introduction of extracellular Na+ lowered [Mg2+]i back to the basal level even in the presence of naltriben. Application of 10 μM NS8593, an inhibitor of TRPM7, significantly lowered [Mg2+]i to 0.72 ± 0.03 mM in 50-60 min independent of extracellular Na+. The results suggest that Mg2+ entry through TRPM7 significantly contributes to physiological Mg2+ homeostasis in mammalian heart cells.

Abstract
The reasons for the high number of loosened metal-on-metal (MoM) hip implants are still not fully understood. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) mediated signaling pathways, which normally modulate tissue metabolism under hypoxic circumstances, could be triggered by metallic wear debris and influence bone metabolism favoring osteolysis. This may lead to early loosening of the orthopedic implants. Immunhistochemical staining of periprosthetic tissues of failed artificial hip implants showed that the concentration of HIF-1α in the surrounding tissues of failed MoM hip implants was significantly higher in comparison to failed metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) hip implants and osteoarthritic tissues. Therefore, we examined the Co2+ -uptake mechanisms and the influence of Co2+ uptake on HIF-1α stabilization. Based on cobalt mediated quenching effects, calcium imaging experiments using fura-2 showed a concentration-dependent cobalt influx in MG-63 cells, which could be inhibited by the unspecific TRPM7 channel inhibitor 2-APB (20 μM) and TRPM7 specific siRNA. Western blots confirmed a dose dependent increase of HIF-1α upon stimulation with Co2+ . This effect could be abrogated by inhibition of cobalt influx using 2-APB. This study shows that chemical hypoxia originating from HIF-1α upregulation within the periprosthetic tissue is related to cobalt wear debris and highlights TRPM7 as an important key mediator in this context. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Mechanical stress plays an important role in the regulation of bone turnover. However, the mechanism underlying hypo-osmotic stress-induced cellular response in osteoblasts remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the effect of hypotonic stress on the expression of bone remodeling factors, including the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) and the nuclear factor of activated T cells type c1 (NFATc1) in primary mouse osteoblasts and MC3T3-E1 cells. Hypo-osmotic stress induced significant increases in RANKL mRNA expression and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) from the extracellular space. Hypo-osmotic stress-induced effects on [Ca2+]i and RANKL and NFATc1 protein expression were decreased by antagonists of transient receptor potential melastatin 3 (TRPM3) and vanilloid 4 (TRPV4). Agonists of TRPM3 and TRPV4 activated [Ca2+]i and RANKL and NFATc1 protein expression. Furthermore, genetic suppression of Trpm3 and Trpv4 reduced hypo-osmotic stress-induced effects in mouse osteoblasts. These results suggest that hypo-osmotic stress induces increases in [Ca2+]i through TRPM3 and TRPV4 to regulate RANKL and NFATc1 expression in mouse osteoblastic cells and that mechanical stress-activated TRP channels may play a critical role in bone remodeling.

Abstract
Members of the TRPM ("Melastatin") family fall into the subclass of the TRP channels having varying permeability to Ca2+ and Mg2+, with three members of the TRPM family being chanzymes, which contain C-terminal enzyme domains. The role of different TRPM members has been shown in various cancers such as prostate cancer for mostly TRPM8 and TRPM2, breast cancer for mostly TRPM2 and TRPM7, and pancreatic cancer for TRPM2/7/8 channels. The role of TRPM5 channels has been shown in lung cancer, TRPM1 in melanoma, and TRPM4 channel in prostate cancer as well. Thus, the TRPM family of channels may represent an appealing target for the anticancer therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND N-acetyl-p-aminophenol (APAP, acetaminophen, paracetamol) is a widely used analgesic/antipyretic with weak inhibitory effects on cyclooxygenase (COX) compared to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The mechanism of action of APAP is mediated by its metabolite that activates transient receptor potential channels, including transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and TRP ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) or the cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1). However, the exact molecular mechanism and target underlying the cellular actions of APAP remain unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effect of APAP on osteoblastic differentiation and cell migration, with a particular focus on TRP channels and CB1. METHODS Effects of APAP on osteoblastic differentiation and cell migration of MC3T3-E1, a mouse pre-osteoblast cell line, were assessed by the increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and both wound-healing and transwell-migration assays, respectively. RESULTS APAP dose-dependently inhibited osteoblastic differentiation, which was well correlated with the effects on COX activity compared with other NSAIDs. In contrast, cell migration was promoted by APAP, and this effect was not correlated with COX inhibition. None of the agonists or antagonists of TRP channels and the CB receptor affected the APAP-induced cell migration, while the effect of APAP on cell migration was abolished by down-regulating TRPV4 gene expression. CONCLUSION APAP inhibited osteoblastic differentiation via COX inactivation while it promoted cell migration independently of previously known targets such as COX, TRPV1, TRPA1 channels, and CB receptors, but through the mechanism involving TRPV4. APAP may have still unidentified molecular targets that modify cellular functions.

Abstract
Tooth development depends on multiple molecular interactions between the dental epithelium and mesenchyme, which are derived from ectodermal and ectomesenchymal cells, respectively. We report on a systematic RNA sequencing analysis of transcriptional expression levels from the bud to hard tissue formation stages of rat tooth germ development. We found that GNAO1, ENO1, EFNB1, CALM1, SIAH2, ATP6V0A1, KDELR2, GTPBP1, POLR2C, SORT1, and members of the canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channel family are involved in tooth germ development. Furthermore, Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK8) and Transwell migration assays were performed to explore the effects of these differentially expressed genes (DEGs) on the proliferation and migration of dental pulp stem cells. Immunostaining revealed that TRPC channels are expressed at varying levels during odontogenesis. The identified genes represent novel candidates that are likely to be vital for rat tooth germ development. Together, the results provide a valuable resource to elucidate the gene regulatory mechanisms underlying mammalian tooth germ development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate whether there is an association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in magnesium-permeable TRPM6 ion channel and development of meningomyelocele (MMC). Therefore, we examined a total of 150 children with MMC, along with age- and gender-matched controls. DNA collected from whole blood was analyzed for the presence of two polymorphisms, rs2274924 (A > G; K1579E; Leu1579Glu) and rs3750425 (G > A; Val1393Ile), in TRPM6. Serum Mg2+ and calcium levels were also examined. RESULTS A statistically significant difference in the distribution of rs2274924 genotypes (p = 0.049) was observed between the groups. Decreases in the AA genotype, and increases in the AG heterozygous genotype were also detected in the study group. The distribution of polymorphisms in the rs3750425 genotype and alleles was not statistically different between groups. Serum Mg2+ levels were lower in the GG genotype of rs3750425 compared with the GA and AA genotypes (p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS A statistically significant difference in rs3750425 genotypes was observed between the patients with MMC and the controls, which corresponded to lower serum Mg2+ concentrations in these patients. Taken together, these results suggest that genetic variations in the Mg2+-permeable TRPM6 ion channel may play a role in the etiopathogenesis of MMC during embryonic development.

Abstract
The in vitro osteogenic differentiation has been intensively studied. However, it is not yet clear precisely how osteogenesis can be optimized. Changes in extracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+) ]e ), as well as modulation of purinergic receptors play an important role in the regulation of osteoblasts differentiation and bone formation. In this study, we investigated the effects of a combined treatment of ATPγ-S and high [Ca(2+) ]e (5.35 mM) on osteogenic differentiation and function of primary cell cultures from rat calvaria. Our results indicate that ATPγ-S stimulates cell transition from the G0 to S phase of cell cycle, involving the PI3K signaling pathway. Treatment with 10 or 100 µM ATPγ-S and [Ca(2+) ]e (ATP-[Ca(2+) ]e ) for 48 h increases cell number significantly above the control. ATPγ-S treatment in osteogenic medium containing [Ca(2+) ]e stimulates the gene expression of BMP-4, BMP-5, and OPN at 16, 48, and 72 h, respectively, above control. In same conditions, treatment for 6 days with 10 µM UTP or 100 µM UDP significantly increased the ALP activity respect to control. Cells grown in osteogenic medium showed a statistically significant increase in calcium deposits at 15 and 18 days, for 10 µM ATPγ-S treatment, and at 18 and 22 days, for [Ca(2+) ]e treatment, respect to control but ATP-[Ca(2+) ]e treatment shown a significant greater mineralization at 15 days respect to ATPγ-S, and at 18 days respect to both agonists. In conclusion, we demonstrated that an osteogenic medium containing 10 µM ATPγ-S and 5.35 mM [Ca(2+) ]e enhance osteogenesis and mineralization by rat primary calvarial cells cultures. J. Cell.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channel superfamily plays critical roles in variety of processes, including temperature perception, pain transduction, vasorelaxation, male fertility, and tumorigenesis. One of seven families within the TRP superfamily of ion channels, the melastatin, or TRPM family comprises a group of eight structurally and functionally diverse channels. Of all the members of TRPM subfamily, TRPM8 is the most notable one. A lot of literatures have demonstrated that transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) could perform a myriad of functions in vertebrates and invertebrates alike. In addition to its well-known function in cold sensation, TRPM8 has an emerging role in a variety of biological systems, including thermoregulation, cancer, bladder function, and asthma. Recent studies have shown that TRPM8 is necessary to the initiation and progression of tumors, and the aberrant expression of TRPM8 was found in varieties of tumors, such as prostate tumor, melanoma, breast adenocarcinoma, bladder cancer, and colorectal cancer, making it a novel molecular target potentially useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. This review outlines our current understanding on the role of TRPM8 in occurrence and development of different kinds of tumor and also includes discussion about the regulation of TRPM8 during carcinogenesis as well as therapeutic potential of targeting TRPM8 in tumor, which may be utilized for a potential pharmacological use as a target for anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical subfamily, member 7 (TRPC7) is the most recently identified member of the TRPC family of Ca(2+)-permeable non-selective cation channels. The gene encoding the TRPC7 channel plasma membrane protein was first cloned from mouse brain. TRPC7 mRNA and protein have been detected in cell types derived from multiple organ systems from various species including humans. Gq-coupled protein receptor activation is the predominant mode of TRPC7 activation. Lipid metabolites involved in the phospholipase C (PLC) signaling pathway, including diacylglycerol (DAG) and its precursor the phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), have been shown to be direct regulators of TRPC7 channel. TRPC7 channels have been linked to the regulation of various cellular functions however, the depth of our understanding of TRPC7 channel function and regulation is limited in comparison to other TRP channel family members. This review takes a historical look at our current knowledge of TRPC7 mechanisms of activation and its role in cellular physiology and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Transient Receptor Potential cation channel, subfamily Melastatin, member 8 (TRPM8) is involved in detection of cold temperature, different noxious compounds and in execution of thermo- as well as chemo-sensitive responses at cellular levels. Here we explored the molecular evolution of TRPM8 by analyzing sequences from various species. We elucidate that several regions of TRPM8 had different levels of selection pressure but the 4th-5th transmembrane regions remain highly conserved. Analysis of synteny suggests that since vertebrate origin, TRPM8 gene is linked with SPP2, a bone morphogen. TRPM8, especially the N-terminal region of it, seems to be highly variable in human population. We found 16,656 TRPM8 variants in 1092 human genomes with top variations being SNPs, insertions and deletions. A total of 692 missense mutations are also mapped to human TRPM8 protein of which 509 seem to be delateroiours in nature as supported by Polyphen V2, SIFT and Grantham deviation score. Using a highly specific antibody, we demonstrate that TRPM8 is expressed endogenously in the testis of rat and sperm cells of different vertebrates ranging from fish to higher mammals. We hypothesize that TRPM8 had emerged during vertebrate evolution (ca 450 MYA). We propose that expression of TRPM8 in sperm cell and its role in regulating sperm function are important factors that have guided its molecular evolution, and that these understandings may have medical importance.

Abstract
While effects of different steroids on the gene expression and regulation are well established, it is proven that steroids can also exert rapid non-genomic actions in several tissues and cells. In most cases, these non-genomic rapid effects of steroids are actually due to intracellular mobilization of Ca(2+)- and other ions suggesting that Ca(2+) channels are involved in such effects. Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) ion channels or TRPs are the largest group of non-selective and polymodal ion channels which cause Ca(2+)-influx in response to different physical and chemical stimuli. While non-genomic actions of different steroids on different ion channels have been established to some extent, involvement of TRPs in such functions is largely unexplored. In this review, we critically analyze the literature and summarize how different steroids as well as their metabolic precursors and derivatives can exert non-genomic effects by acting on different TRPs qualitatively and/or quantitatively. Such effects have physiological repercussion on systems such as in sperm cells, immune cells, bone cells, neuronal cells and many others. Different TRPs are also endogenously expressed in diverse steroid-producing tissues and thus may have importance in steroid synthesis as well, a process which is tightly controlled by the intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations. Tissue and cell-specific expression of TRP channels are also regulated by different steroids. Understanding of the crosstalk between TRP channels and different steroids may have strong significance in physiological, endocrinological and pharmacological context and in future these compounds can also be used as potential biomedicine.

Abstract
Ca(2+) -mediated formation of cell polarity is essential for directional migration which plays an important role in physiological and pathological processes in organisms. To examine the critical role of store-operated Ca(2+) entry, which is the major form of extracellular Ca(2+) influx in non-excitable cells, in the formation of cell polarity, we employed human bone osteosarcoma U2OS cells, which exhibit distinct morphological polarity during directional migration. Our analyses showed that Ca(2+) was concentrated at the rear end of cells and that extracellular Ca(2+) influx was important for cell polarization. Inhibition of store-operated Ca(2+) entry using specific inhibitors disrupted the formation of cell polarity in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the channelosomal components caveolin-1, TRPC1, and Orai1 were concentrated at the rear end of polarized cells. Knockdown of TRPC1 or a TRPC inhibitor, but not knockdown of Orai1, reduced cell polarization. Furthermore, disruption of lipid rafts or overexpression of caveolin-1 contributed to the downregulation of cell polarity. On the other hand, we also found that cell polarity, store-operated Ca(2+) entry activity, and cell stiffness were markedly decreased by low substrate rigidity, which may be caused by the disorganization of actin filaments and microtubules that occurs while regulating the activity of the mechanosensitive TRPC1 channel.

Abstract
Regulation of ion channels is central to the mechanisms that underlie immediate acute physiological responses to changes in the availability of molecular oxygen (O2). A group of cation-permeable channels that are formed by transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins have been characterized as exquisite sensors of redox reactive species and as efficient actuators of electric/ionic signals in vivo. In this review, we first discuss how redox-sensitive TRP channels such as TRPA1 have recently emerged as sensors of the relatively inert oxidant O2. With regard to the physiological significance of O2 sensor TRP channels, vagal TRPA1 channels are mainly discussed with respect to their role in respiratory regulation in comparison with canonical pathways in glomus cells of the carotid body, which is a well-established O2-sensing organ. TRPM7 channels are discussed regarding hypoxia-sensing function in ischemic cell death. Also, ubiquitous expression of TRPA1 and TRPM7 together with their physiological relevance in the body is examined. Finally, based upon these studies on TRP channels, we propose a hypothesis of “O2 remodeling.” The hypothesis is that cells detect deviation of O2 availability from appropriate levels via sensors and adjust local O2 environments in vivo by controlling supply and consumption of O2 via pathways comprising cellular signals and transcription factors downstream of sensors, which consequently optimize physiological functions. This new insight into O2 adaptation through ion channels, particularly TRPs, may foster a paradigm shift in our understanding in the biological significance of O2.

Inhibition of T-Type Voltage Sensitive Calcium Channel Reduces Load-Induced OA in Mice and Suppresses the Catabolic Effect of Bone Mechanical Stress on Chondrocytes. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0127290.

Abstract
Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) regulate cellular calcium influx, one of the earliest responses to mechanical stimulation in osteoblasts. Here, we postulate that T-type VSCCs play an essential role in bone mechanical response to load and participate in events leading to the pathology of load-induced OA. Repetitive mechanical insult was used to induce OA in Cav3.2 T-VSCC null and wild-type control mouse knees. Osteoblasts (MC3T3-E1) and chondrocytes were treated with a selective T-VSCC inhibitor and subjected to fluid shear stress to determine how blocking of T-VSCCs alters the expression profile of each cell type upon mechanical stimulation. Conditioned-media (CM) obtained from static and sheared MC3T3-E1 was used to assess the effect of osteoblast-derived factors on the chondrocyte phenotype. T-VSCC null knees exhibited significantly lower focal articular cartilage damage than age-matched controls. In vitro inhibition of T-VSCC significantly reduced the expression of both early and late mechanoresponsive genes in osteoblasts but had no effect on gene expression in chondrocytes. Furthermore, treatment of chondrocytes with CM obtained from sheared osteoblasts induced expression of markers of hypertrophy in chondrocytes and this was nearly abolished when osteoblasts were pre-treated with the T-VSCC-specific inhibitor. These results indicate that T-VSCC plays a role in signaling events associated with induction of OA and is essential to the release of osteoblast-derived factors that promote an early OA phenotype in chondrocytes. Further, these findings suggest that local inhibition of T-VSCC may serve as a therapy for blocking load-induced bone formation that results in cartilage degeneration.

Acidic microenvironment and bone pain in cancer-colonized bone. BONEKEY REPORTS 2015; 4:690.

Abstract
Solid cancers and hematologic cancers frequently colonize bone and induce skeletal-related complications. Bone pain is one of the most common complications associated with cancer colonization in bone and a major cause of increased morbidity and diminished quality of life, leading to poor survival in cancer patients. Although the mechanisms responsible for cancer-associated bone pain (CABP) are poorly understood, it is likely that complex interactions among cancer cells, bone cells and peripheral nerve cells contribute to the pathophysiology of CABP. Clinical observations that specific inhibitors of osteoclasts reduce CABP indicate a critical role of osteoclasts. Osteoclasts are proton-secreting cells and acidify extracellular bone microenvironment. Cancer cell-colonized bone also releases proton/lactate to avoid intracellular acidification resulting from increased aerobic glycolysis known as the Warburg effect. Thus, extracellular microenvironment of cancer-colonized bone is acidic. Acidosis is algogenic for nociceptive sensory neurons. The bone is densely innervated by the sensory neurons that express acid-sensing nociceptors. Collectively, CABP is evoked by the activation of these nociceptors on the sensory neurons innervating bone by the acidic extracellular microenvironment created by bone-resorbing osteoclasts and bone-colonizing cancer cells. As current treatments do not satisfactorily control CABP and can elicit serious side effects, new therapeutic interventions are needed to manage CABP. Understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanism by which the acidic extracellular microenvironment is created in cancer-colonized bone and by which the expression and function of the acid-sensing nociceptors on the sensory neurons are regulated would facilitate to develop novel therapeutic approaches for the management of CABP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the analgesic effects of lidocaine (LDC) and lidocane derivative, QX-572, co-application on the evoked pain behaviour (complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA)-induced) and spontaneous pain behaviour (formalin-induced) in mice. METHODS The experiments were performed using adult male Kunming mice. Formalin-induced acute pain model and CFA-induced chronic pain model was established by injecting formalin and CFA, respectively. Separate injections of LDC and QX-572, or co-injection of LDC and QX-572, were performed to observe the differences in neurobehavioural responses, paw withdrawal latency (PWL) and mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT). KEY FINDINGS QX-572 injection alone did not influence PWL and MWT, but injection of LDC alone led to a substantial, but short-lived, elevation in PWL and MWT (45 min). Co-injection of LDC and QX-572, however, resulted in a significant increase in PWL and MWT (120 min) compared with the LDC group. Injection of LDC and QX-572 combination in the adjacent sciatic nerve also produced a long-lasting sensory-specific nerve block. Additionally, intraplantar co-injection of LDC and QX-572 combination inhibited spontaneous pain in formalin-treated mice, but did not detectably attenuated hyperalgesia and allodynia in CFA-treated mice. CONCLUSIONS Our results provide evidence that QX-572 induced sensory-selective blockade and co-injection of QX-572 and LDC enhance pain blockade, as evident from formalin-treated mice.

Abstract
The G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily of integral proteins is the largest family of signal transducers, comprised of ∼1000 members. Considering their prevalence and functional importance, it’s not surprising that ∼60% of drugs target GPCRs. Regardless, there exists a subset of the GPCR superfamily that is largely uncharacterized and poorly understood; specifically, more than 140 GPCRs have unknown endogenous ligands—the so-called orphan GPCRs. Orphan GPCRs offer tremendous promise, as they may provide novel therapeutic targets that may be more selective than currently known receptors, resulting in the potential reduction in side effects. In addition, they may provide access to signal transduction pathways currently unknown, allowing for new strategies in drug design. Regardless, orphan GPCRs are an important area of inquiry, as they represent a large gap in our understanding of signal transduction at the cellular level. Here, we focus on the therapeutic potential of two recently deorphanized GPCRs: GPR35/CXCR8 and GPR55. First, GPR35/CXCR8 has been observed in numerous tissues/organ systems, including the gastrointestinal tract, liver, immune system, central nervous system, and cardiovascular system. Not surprisingly, GPR35/CXCR8 has been implicated in numerous pathologies involving these tissues/systems. While several endogenous ligands have been identified, GPR35/CXCR8 has recently been observed to bind the chemokine CXCL17. Second, GPR55 has been observed to be expressed in the central nervous system, adrenal glands, gastrointestinal tract, lung, liver, uterus, bladder, kidney, and bone, as well as, other tissues/organ systems. Likewise, it is not surprising that GPR55 has been implicated in pathologies involving these tissues/systems. GPR55 was initially deorphanized as a cannabinoid receptor and this receptor does bind many cannabinoid compounds. However, the GPR55 endogenous ligand has been found to be a non-cannabinoid, lysophophatidylinositol (LPI) and subsequent high throughput assays have identified other GPR55 ligands that are not cannabinoids and do not bind to either the cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors. Here, we review reports that suggest that GPR35/CXCR8 and GPR55 may be promising therapeutic targets, with diverse physiological roles.

Abstract
Solid and hematologic cancer colonized bone produces a number of pathologies. One of the most common complications is bone pain. Cancer-associated bone pain (CABP) is a major cause of increased morbidity and diminishes the quality of life and affects survival. Current treatments do not satisfactorily control CABP and can elicit adverse effects. Thus, new therapeutic interventions are needed to manage CABP. However, the mechanisms responsible for CABP are poorly understood. The observation that specific osteoclast inhibitors can reduce CABP in patients indicates a critical role of osteoclasts in the pathophysiology of CABP. Osteoclasts create an acidic extracellular microenvironment by secretion of protons via vacuolar proton pumps during bone resorption. In addition, bone-colonized cancer cells also release protons and lactate via plasma membrane pH regulators to avoid intracellular acidification resulting from increased aerobic glycolysis known as the Warburg effect. Since acidosis is algogenic for sensory neurons and bone is densely innervated by sensory neurons that express acid-sensing nociceptors, the acidic bone microenvironments can evoke CABP. Understanding of the mechanism by which the acidic extracellular microenvironment is created in cancer-colonized bone and the expression and function of the acid-sensing nociceptors are regulated should facilitate the development of novel approaches for management of CABP. Here, the contribution of the acidic microenvironment created in cancer-colonized bone to elicitation of CABP and potential therapeutic implications of blocking the development and recognition of acidic microenvironment will be described. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Membrane channels and transporters in cancers.

The genetic ablation or pharmacological inhibition of TRPV1 signalling is beneficial for the restoration of quiescent osteoclast activity in ovariectomized mice. Br J Pharmacol 2014; 171:2621-30. [PMID: 24308803 DOI: 10.1111/bph.12542] [Citation(s) in RCA: 44] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2013] [Revised: 11/12/2013] [Accepted: 11/24/2013] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by a decrease in bone density, which decreases its strength and results in fragile bones. The endocannabinoid/endovanilloid system has been shown to be involved in the regulation of skeletal remodelling. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible modulation of bone mass mediated by the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 channel (TRPV1) in vivo and in vitro. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH A multidisciplinary approach, including biomolecular, biochemical and morphological analysis, was used to investigate the involvement of TRPV1 in changes in bone density in vivo and osteoclast activity in vitro, in wild-type and Trpv1(-/-) mice, that had undergone ovariectomy or had a sham operation. KEY RESULTS Genetic deletion of Trpv1 as well as pharmacological inhibition/desensitization of TRPV1 signalling dramatically reduced the osteoclast activity in vitro and prevented the ovariectomy-induced bone loss in vivo, whereas the expression of cannabinoid type 2 (CB2 ) receptors was increased. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS These findings highlight the pivotal role TRPV1 channels play in bone resorption and suggest a possible cross-talk between TRPV1 and CB2 receptors. Based on these results, hybrid compounds acting on both TRPV1 and CB2 receptors in an opposite manner could provide a future pharmacological tool for the treatment of diseases associated with disturbances in the bone remodelling process.

Classical Transient Receptor Potential 1 (TRPC1): Channel or Channel Regulator? Cells 2014; 3:939-62.

Abstract
In contrast to other Classical Transient Receptor Potential TRPC channels the function of TRPC1 as an ion channel is a matter of debate, because it is often difficult to obtain substantial functional signals over background in response to over-expression of TRPC1 alone. Along these lines, heterologously expressed TRPC1 is poorly translocated to the plasma membrane as a homotetramer and may not function on its own physiologically, but may rather be an important linker and regulator protein in heteromeric TRPC channel tetramers. However, due to the lack of specific TRPC1 antibodies able to detect native TRPC1 channels in primary cells, identification of functional TRPC1 containing heteromeric TRPC channel complexes in the plasma membrane is still challenging. Moreover, an extended TRPC1 cDNA, which was recently discovered, may seriously question results obtained in heterologous expression systems transfected with shortened cDNA versions. Therefore, this review will focus on the current status of research on TRPC1 function obtained in primary cells and a TRPC1-deficient mouse model.

Elevation of extracellular Ca2+ induces store-operated calcium entry via calcium-sensing receptors: a pathway contributes to the proliferation of osteoblasts. PLoS One 2014; 9:e107217. [PMID: 25254954 PMCID: PMC4177836 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0107217] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2014] [Accepted: 08/10/2014] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims The local concentration of extracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]o) in bone microenvironment is accumulated during bone remodeling. In the present study we investigated whether elevating [Ca2+]o induced store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) in primary rat calvarial osteoblasts and further examined the contribution of elevating [Ca2+]o to osteoblastic proliferation. Methods Cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]c) of primary cultured rat osteoblasts was detected by fluorescence imaging using calcium-sensitive probe fura-2/AM. Osteoblastic proliferation was estimated by cell counting, MTS assay and ATP assay. Agonists and antagonists of calcium-sensing receptors (CaSR) as well as inhibitors of phospholipase C (PLC), SOCE and voltage-gated calcium (Cav) channels were applied to study the mechanism in detail. Results Our data showed that elevating [Ca2+]o evoked a sustained increase of [Ca2+]c in a dose-dependent manner. This [Ca2+]c increase was blocked by TMB-8 (Ca2+ release inhibitor), 2-APB and BTP-2 (both SOCE blockers), respectively, whereas not affected by Cav channels blockers nifedipine and verapamil. Furthermore, NPS2143 (a CaSR antagonist) or U73122 (a PLC inhibitor) strongly reduced the [Ca2+]o-induced [Ca2+]c increase. The similar responses were observed when cells were stimulated with CaSR agonist spermine. These data indicated that elevating [Ca2+]o resulted in SOCE depending on the activation of CaSR and PLC in osteoblasts. In addition, high [Ca2+]o significantly promoted osteoblastic proliferation, which was notably reversed by BAPTA-AM (an intracellular calcium chelator), 2-APB, BTP-2, TMB-8, NPS2143 and U73122, respectively, but not affected by Cav channels antagonists. Conclusions Elevating [Ca2+]o induced SOCE by triggering the activation of CaSR and PLC. This process was involved in osteoblastic proliferation induced by high level of extracellular Ca2+ concentration.

Bon RS, Beech DJ. In pursuit of small molecule chemistry for calcium-permeable non-selective TRPC channels -- mirage or pot of gold? Br J Pharmacol 2014; 170:459-74. [PMID: 23763262 DOI: 10.1111/bph.12274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 76] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2013] [Revised: 04/29/2013] [Accepted: 05/09/2013] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The primary purpose of this review is to address the progress towards small molecule modulators of human Transient Receptor Potential Canonical proteins (TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC4, TRPC5, TRPC6 and TRPC7). These proteins generate channels for calcium and sodium ion entry. They are relevant to many mammalian cell types including acinar gland cells, adipocytes, astrocytes, cardiac myocytes, cochlea hair cells, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, hepatocytes, keratinocytes, leukocytes, mast cells, mesangial cells, neurones, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, platelets, podocytes, smooth muscle cells, skeletal muscle and tumour cells. There are broad-ranging positive roles of the channels in cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, survival and turning, vascular permeability, hypertrophy, wound-healing, hypo-adiponectinaemia, angiogenesis, neointimal hyperplasia, oedema, thrombosis, muscle endurance, lung hyper-responsiveness, glomerular filtration, gastrointestinal motility, pancreatitis, seizure, innate fear, motor coordination, saliva secretion, mast cell degranulation, cancer cell drug resistance, survival after myocardial infarction, efferocytosis, hypo-matrix metalloproteinase, vasoconstriction and vasodilatation. Known small molecule stimulators of the channels include hyperforin, genistein and rosiglitazone, but there is more progress with inhibitors, some of which have promising potency and selectivity. The inhibitors include 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate, 2-aminoquinolines, 2-aminothiazoles, fatty acids, isothiourea derivatives, naphthalene sulfonamides, N-phenylanthranilic acids, phenylethylimidazoles, piperazine/piperidine analogues, polyphenols, pyrazoles and steroids. A few of these agents are starting to be useful as tools for determining the physiological and pathophysiological functions of TRPC channels. We suggest that the pursuit of small molecule modulators for TRPC channels is important but that it requires substantial additional effort and investment before we can reap the rewards of highly potent and selective pharmacological modulators.
