Alavi MS, Soheili V, Roohbakhsh A. The role of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in phagocytosis: A comprehensive review. Eur J Pharmacol 2024; 964:176302. [PMID: 38154767 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2023.176302] [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: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023]
Abstract
When host cells are exposed to foreign particles, dead cells, or cell hazards, a sophisticated process called phagocytosis begins. During this process, macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils engulf the target by expanding their membranes. Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells is called efferocytosis. This process is of significant importance as billions of cells are eliminated daily without provoking inflammation. Both phagocytosis and efferocytosis depend on Ca2+ signaling. A big family of Ca2+ permeable channels is transient receptor potentials (TRPs) divided into nine subfamilies. We aimed to review their roles in phagocytosis. The present review article shows that various TRP channels such as TRPV1, 2, 3, 4, TRPM2, 4, 7, 8, TRPML1, TRPA1, TRPC1, 3, 5, 6 have roles at various stages of phagocytosis. They are involved in the phagocytosis of amyloid β, α-synuclein, myelin debris, bacteria, and apoptotic cells. In particular, TRPC3 and TRPM7 contribute to efferocytosis. These effects are mediated by changing Ca2+ signaling or targeting intracellular enzymes such as Akt. In addition, they contribute to the chemotaxis of phagocytic cells towards targets. Although a limited number of studies have assessed the role of TRP channels in phagocytosis and efferocytosis, their findings indicate that they have critical roles in these processes. In some cases, their ablation completely abolished the phagocytic function of the cells. As a result, TRP channels are potential targets for developing new therapeutics that modulate phagocytosis.

Kumar S, Acharya TK, Halder RR, Mahapatra P, Chang YT, Goswami C. Menthol causes mitochondrial Ca 2+-influx, affects structure-function relationship and cools mitochondria. Life Sci 2023; 331:122032. [PMID: 37604353 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2023.122032] [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: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023]
Abstract
Menthol is a small bioactive compound able to cause several physiological changes and has multiple molecular targets. Therefore, cellular response against menthol is complex, and still poorly understood. In this work, we used a human osteosarcoma cell line (Saos-2) and analysed the effect of menthol, especially in terms of cellular, subcellular and molecular aspects. We demonstrate that menthol causes increased mitochondrial Ca2+ in a complex manner, which is mainly contributed by intracellular sources, including ER. Menthol also changes the Ca2+-load of individual mitochondrial particles in different conditions. Menthol increases ER-mito contact points, causes mitochondrial morphological changes, and increases mitochondrial ATP, cardiolipin, mitochondrial ROS and reduces mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm). Menthol also prevents the mitochondrial quality damaged by sub-lethal and lethal doses of CCCP. In addition, menthol lowers the mitochondrial temperature within cell and also serves as a cooling agent for the isolated mitochondria in a cell free system too. Notably, menthol-induced reduction of mitochondrial temperature is observed in diverse types of cells, including neuronal, immune and cancer cells. As the higher mitochondrial temperature is a hallmark of several inflammatory, metabolic, disease and age-related disorders, we propose that menthol can serve as an active anti-aging compound against all these disorders. These findings may have relevance in case of several pharmacological and clinical applications of menthol. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Menthol is a plant-derived bioactive compound that is widely used for several physiological, behavioural, addictive, and medicinal purposes. It is a well-established "cooling and analgesic agent". However, the exact cellular and sub-cellular responses of menthol is poorly understood. In this work, we have characterized the effects of menthol on mitochondrial metabolism. Menthol regulates mitochondrial Ca2+, ATP, superoxides, cardiolipin, membrane-potential, and ER-mito contact sites. Moreover, the cooling agent menthol also cools down mitochondria and protects mitochondrial damage by certain toxins. These findings may promote use of menthol as a useful supplementary agent for anti-aging, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory purposes where higher mitochondrial temperature is prevalent.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a class of transmembrane proteins that can sense a variety of physical/chemical stimuli, participate in the pathological processes of various diseases and have attracted increasing attention from researchers. Recent studies have shown that some TRP channels are involved in the development of pathological scarification (PS) and directly participate in PS fibrosis and re-epithelialization or indirectly activate immune cells to release cytokines and neuropeptides, which is subdivided into immune inflammation, fibrosis, pruritus and mechanical forces increased. This review elaborates on the characteristics of TRP channels, the mechanism of PS and how TRP channels mediate the development of PS, summarizes the important role of TRP channels in the different pathogenesis of PS and proposes that therapeutic strategies targeting TRP will be important for the prevention and treatment of PS. TRP channels are expected to become new targets for PS, which will make further breakthroughs and provide potential pharmacological targets and directions for the in-depth study of PS.

T-2 toxin induces dermal inflammation and toxicity in mice: The healing potential of menthol. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 228:115838.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization and the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations, T-2 is one of the most harmful food-toxic chemicals, penetrates intact skin. The current study examined the protective benefits of menthol topical treatment on T-2 toxin-induced cutaneous toxicity in mice. Lesions were observed on the skin of the T-2 toxin-treated groups at 72 and 120 h. The T-2 toxin (2.97 mg/kg/bw)-treated group developed skin lesions, skin inflammation, erythema, and necrosis of skin tissue in contrast to the control group. Our findings reveal that topical application of 0.25% and 0.5% MN treated groups resulted in no erythema or inflammation, and normal skin was observed with growing hairs. The 0.5% MN administered group demonstrated an 80% blister and erythema healing effect in in vitro tests. In addition, MN dose-dependently suppressed ROS and lipid peroxidation mediated by the T-2 toxin up to 120%. Histology discoveries and the immunoblotting investigations with the downregulation of i-NOS gene expression confirmed the validity of menthol activity. Further molecular docking experiments of menthol against the i-NOS protein demonstrated stable binding efficacy with conventional hydrogen bond interactions, indicating compelling evidence of menthol's anti-inflammatory effects on the T-2 toxin-induced skin inflammation.

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.
