Signal Transduct Target Ther 2023; 8:261. [PMID: 37402746 DOI: 10.1038/s41392-023-01464-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 36.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are sensors for a variety of cellular and environmental signals. Mammals express a total of 28 different TRP channel proteins, which can be divided into seven subfamilies based on amino acid sequence homology: TRPA (Ankyrin), TRPC (Canonical), TRPM (Melastatin), TRPML (Mucolipin), TRPN (NO-mechano-potential, NOMP), TRPP (Polycystin), TRPV (Vanilloid). They are a class of ion channels found in numerous tissues and cell types and are permeable to a wide range of cations such as Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, and others. TRP channels are responsible for various sensory responses including heat, cold, pain, stress, vision and taste and can be activated by a number of stimuli. Their predominantly location on the cell surface, their interaction with numerous physiological signaling pathways, and the unique crystal structure of TRP channels make TRPs attractive drug targets and implicate them in the treatment of a wide range of diseases. Here, we review the history of TRP channel discovery, summarize the structures and functions of the TRP ion channel family, and highlight the current understanding of the role of TRP channels in the pathogenesis of human disease. Most importantly, we describe TRP channel-related drug discovery, therapeutic interventions for diseases and the limitations of targeting TRP channels in potential clinical applications.

Abstract
Recently, possible applications of zinc oxide nanoparticles (nano-ZnO) have been extensively studied owing to their ease of synthesis. However, the effect of nano-ZnO on the nervous system remains unclear. This study investigates the action of nano-ZnO on SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. We found that nano-ZnO (0-50 µg/mL) induced a significant decrease in cell survival rate in a dose-dependent manner, and increased LC3 puncta formation. However, the apoptosis was not affected by nano-ZnO, because the protein levels of cytochrome c, caspase-3, Bcl-xL, and BAX were not varied by the nano-ZnO treatment. Nano-ZnO increased Ca2+ entry and the expression of TRPC6.The results suggested that nano-ZnO increased [Ca2+] through the TRPC-dependent Ca2+ influx, since Ca2+ influx can be prevented by the TRPC inhibitor. Furthermore, cells on nano-ZnO-treatment groups displayed loss of F-actin in a dose dependent manner, which also could be prevented by TRPC inhibitor. Herein, we demonstrated that the nano-ZnO activated TRPC6 channel, thereby increasing the Ca2+ flux and resulting in increased autophagy. Nano-ZnO could have possible anticancer effects in neuroblastoma by inhibiting the proliferation of tumor cells. However, we should also pay attention toward the biosecurity of nano materials.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease in the world. The "amyloid hypothesis" is one of the predominant hypotheses for the pathogenesis of AD. Besides, tau protein accumulation, calcium homeostasis disruption, and glial cell activation are also remarkable features in AD. Recently, there are some reports showing that TRPC channels may function in AD development, especially TRPC6. In this chapter, we will discuss the evidence for the involvement of TRPC channels in Alzheimer's disease and the potential of therapeutics for AD based on TRPC channels.

Translationally Controlled Tumor Protein Stimulates Dopamine Release from PC12 Cells via Ca 2+-Independent Phospholipase A₂ Pathways. Int J Mol Sci 2016; 17:ijms17101774. [PMID: 27783042 PMCID: PMC5085798 DOI: 10.3390/ijms17101774] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2016] [Revised: 10/05/2016] [Accepted: 10/10/2016] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP), initially identified as a tumor- and growth-related protein, is also known as a histamine-releasing factor (HRF). TCTP is widely distributed in the neuronal systems, but its function is largely uncharacterized. Here, we report a novel function of TCTP in the neurotransmitter release from a neurosecretory, pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. Treatment with recombinant TCTP (rTCTP) enhanced both basal and depolarization (50 mM KCl)-evoked [³H]dopamine release in concentration- and time-dependent manners. Interestingly, even though rTCTP induced the increase in intracellular calcium levels ([Ca2+]i), the rTCTP-driven effect on dopamine release was mediated by a Ca2+-independent pathway, as evidenced by the fact that Ca2+-modulating agents such as Ca2+ chelators and a voltage-gated L-type Ca2+-channel blocker did not produce any changes in rTCTP-evoked dopamine release. In a study to investigate the involvement of phospholipase A₂ (PLA₂) in rTCTP-induced dopamine release, the inhibitor for Ca2+-independent PLA₂ (iPLA₂) produced a significant inhibitory effect on rTCTP-induced dopamine release, whereas this release was not significantly inhibited by Ca2+-dependent cytosolic PLA₂ (cPLA₂) and secretory PLA₂ (sPLA₂) inhibitors. We found that rTCTP-induced dopamine release from neuronal PC12 cells was modulated by a Ca2+-independent mechanism that involved PLA₂ in the process, suggesting the regulatory role of TCTP in the neuronal functions.

TRPC6 specifically interacts with APP to inhibit its cleavage by γ-secretase and reduce Aβ production. Nat Commun 2015; 6:8876.

Abstract
Generation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide in Alzheimer's disease involves cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by γ-secretase, a protease known to cleave several substrates, including Notch. Finding specific modulators for γ-secretase could be a potential avenue to treat the disease. Here, we report that transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) 6 specifically interacts with APP leading to inhibition of its cleavage by γ-secretase and reduction in Aβ production. TRPC6 interacts with APP (C99), but not with Notch, and prevents C99 interaction with presenilin 1 (PS1). A fusion peptide derived from TRPC6 also reduces Aβ levels without effect on Notch cleavage. Crossing APP/PS1 mice with TRPC6 transgenic mice leads to a marked reduction in both plaque load and Aβ levels, and improvement in structural and behavioural impairment. Thus, TRPC6 specifically modulates γ-secretase cleavage of APP and preventing APP (C99) interaction with PS1 via TRPC6 could be a novel strategy to reduce Aβ formation. Attempts to treat Alzheimer's disease by targeting γ-secretase cleavage of APP into Aß have been unsuccessful, partially due to off-target effects. Here, the authors identify TRPC6 as a novel γ-secretase modulator, showing that it interacts with APP to regulate Aß levels while sparing Notch cleavage.

Abstract
Gintonin is a novel ginseng-derived lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor ligand. Oral administration of gintonin ameliorates learning and memory dysfunctions in Alzheimer's disease (AD) animal models. The brain cholinergic system plays a key role in cognitive functions. The brains of AD patients show a reduction in acetylcholine concentration caused by cholinergic system impairments. However, little is known about the role of LPA in the cholinergic system. In this study, we used gintonin to investigate the effect of LPA receptor activation on the cholinergic system in vitro and in vivo using wild-type and AD animal models. Gintonin induced [Ca(2+)]i transient in cultured mouse hippocampal neural progenitor cells (NPCs). Gintonin-mediated [Ca(2+)]i transients were linked to stimulation of acetylcholine release through LPA receptor activation. Oral administration of gintonin-enriched fraction (25, 50, or 100 mg/kg, 3 weeks) significantly attenuated scopolamine-induced memory impairment. Oral administration of gintonin (25 or 50 mg/kg, 2 weeks) also significantly attenuated amyloid-β protein (Aβ)-induced cholinergic dysfunctions, such as decreased acetylcholine concentration, decreased choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activity and immunoreactivity, and increased acetylcholine esterase (AChE) activity. In a transgenic AD mouse model, long-term oral administration of gintonin (25 or 50 mg/kg, 3 months) also attenuated AD-related cholinergic impairments. In this study, we showed that activation of G protein-coupled LPA receptors by gintonin is coupled to the regulation of cholinergic functions. Furthermore, this study showed that gintonin could be a novel agent for the restoration of cholinergic system damages due to Aβ and could be utilized for AD prevention or therapy.

Abstract
Background Numerous pathological processes that affect liver function in patients with liver failure have been identified. Among them, hyperammonia is one of the most common phenomena.The purpose of this study was to determine whether hyperammonia could induced specific liver injury. Methods Hyperammonemic cells were established using NH4Cl. The cells were assessed by MTT, ELISA, and flow cytometric analyses. The expression levels of selected genes and proteins were confirmed by quantitative RT-PCR and western blot analyses. Results The effects of 20 mM NH4Cl pretreatment on the cell proliferation and apoptosis of primary hepatocytes and other cells were performed by MTT assays and flow cytometric analyses. Significant increasing in cytotoxicity and apoptosis were only observed in hepatocytes. The cell damage was reduced after adding BAPTA-AM but unchanged after adding EGTA. The expression levels of caspase-3, cytochrome C, calmodulin, and inducible nitric oxide synthase were increased and that of bcl-2 was reduced. The Na+-K+-ATPase activities in hyperammonia liver cells was no signiaficant difference compaired with the control group, but was decreased in astrocytes. NH4Cl pretreatment of primary hepatocytes promoted the activation of mitochondrial permeability transition pores and the mitochondria swelled irregularly. Conclusions Hyperammonia induces specific liver injury through an intrinsic Ca2+-independent apoptosis pathway.

Abstract
The human formyl peptide receptor like 1 (FPRL-1) is a variant of the Gi-coupled formyl-peptide receptor. Functional FPRL-1 is endogenously expressed in the U87 astrocytoma cell line and there is accumulating evidence to suggest that FPRL-1 may be involved in neuroinflammation associated with the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. In this study, we examined the ability of FPRL-1 to mobilize intracellular Ca2+ in U87 astrocytoma cells, as well as in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably expressing FPRL-1. We showed that Trp-Lys-Tyr-Met-Val-Met-NH2 (WKYMVM), a specific agonist for FPRL-1, stimulated Ca2+ influx in both U87 and FPRL-1/CHO cells. These effects can be inhibited by the FPRL-1 selective antagonist, WRW4. Involvement of Gi proteins was demonstrated with the use of pertussis toxin, while inhibitors of store-operated channels (SOC) including 1-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)]-2-[3-(4-methpxyphenyl)propoxy]ethyl-1H-imidazole hydrochloride (SKF96365) and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) were found to abolish the WKYMVM-induced Ca2+ increase. However, intracellular Ca2+ mobilization in both cell lines were unaffected by the phospholipase Cbeta inhibitor U73122 or selective ryanodine receptor inhibitors. Our data demonstrated that activation of Gi-coupled FPRL-1 can lead to Ca2+ influx possibly via SOCs in U87 and FPRL-1/CHO cells.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO), previously demonstrated to participate in the regulation of the resting membrane potential in skeletal muscles via muscarinic receptors, also regulates non-quantal acetylcholine (ACh) secretion from rat motor nerve endings. Non-quantal ACh release was estimated by the amplitude of endplate hyperpolarization (H-effect) following a blockade of skeletal muscle post-synaptic nicotinic receptors by (+)-tubocurarine. The muscarinic agonists oxotremorine and muscarine lowered the H-effect and the M1 antagonist pirenzepine prevented this effect occurring at all. Another muscarinic agonist arecaidine but-2-ynyl ester tosylate (ABET), which is more selective for M2 receptors than for M1 receptors and 1,1-dimethyl-4-diphenylacetoxypiperidinium (DAMP), a specific antagonist of M3 cholinergic receptors had no significant effect on the H-effect. The oxotremorine-induced decrease in the H-effect was calcium and calmodulin-dependent. The decrease was negated when either NO synthase was inhibited by N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester or soluble guanylyl cyclase was inhibited by 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one. The target of muscle-derived NO is apparently nerve terminal guanylyl cyclase, because exogenous hemoglobin, acting as an NO scavenger, prevented the oxotremorine-induced drop in the H-effect. These results suggest that oxotremorine (and probably also non-quantal ACh) selectively inhibit the non-quantal secretion of ACh from motor nerve terminals acting on post-synaptic M1 receptors coupled to Ca(2+) channels in the sarcolemma to induce sarcoplasmic Ca(2+)-dependent synthesis and the release of NO. It seems that a substantial part of the H-effect can be physiologically regulated by this negative feedback loop, i.e., by NO from muscle fiber; there is apparently also Ca(2+)- and calmodulin-dependent regulation of ACh non-quantal release in the nerve terminal itself, as calmidazolium inhibition of the calmodulin led to a doubling of the resting H-effect.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment and emotional disturbances in Alzheimer's disease (AD) result from the degeneration of synapses and neuronal death in the limbic system and associated regions of the cerebral cortex. An alteration in the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) results in increased production and accumulation of amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta) in the brain. Abeta can render neurons vulnerable to excitotoxicity and apoptosis by disruption of cellular Ca(2+) homeostasis and neurotoxic factors including reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitric oxide (NO), and cytokines. Many lines of evidence have suggested that transient receptor potential (TRP) channels consisting of six main subfamilies termed the TRPC (canonical), TRPV (vanilloid), TRPM (melastatin), TRPP (polycystin), TRPML (mucolipin), and TRPA (ankyrin) are involved in Ca(2+) homeostasis disruption. Thus, emerging evidence of the pathophysiological role of TRP channels has yielded promising candidates for molecular entities mediating Ca(2+) homeostasis disruption in AD. In this review, we focus on the TRP channels in AD and highlight some TRP "suspects" for which a role in AD can be anticipated. An understanding of the involvement of TRP channels in AD may lead to the development of new target therapies.

Abstract
G(q/11) protein-coupled muscarinic receptors are known to regulate the release of soluble amyloid precursor protein (sAPPalpha) produced by alpha-secretase processing; however, their signaling mechanisms remain to be elucidated. It has been reported that a muscarinic agonist activates nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB, a transcription factor that has been shown to play an important role in the Alzheimer disease brain, and that NF-kappaB activation is regulated by intracellular Ca2+ level. In the present study, we investigated whether NF-kappaB activation plays a role in muscarinic receptor-mediated sAPPalpha release enhancement and contributes to a changed capacitative Ca2+ entry (CCE), which was suggested to be involved in the muscarinic receptor-mediated stimulation of sAPPalpha release. Muscarinic receptor-mediated NF-kappaB activation was confirmed by observing the translocation of the active subunit (p65) of NF-kappaB to the nucleus by the muscarinic agonist, oxotremorine M (oxoM), in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells expressing muscarinic receptors that are predominantly of the M3 subtype. NF-kappaB activation and sAPPalpha release enhancement induced by oxoM were inhibited by NF-kappaB inhibitors, such as an NF-kappaB peptide inhibitor (SN50), an IkappaB alpha kinase inhibitor (BAY11-7085), a proteasome inhibitor (MG132), the inhibitor of proteasome activity and IkappaB phosphorylation, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, the novel NF-kappaB activation inhibitor (6-amino-4-(4-phenoxyphenylethylamino) quinazoline), and by an intracellular Ca2+ chelator (TMB-8). Furthermore, both oxoM-induced NF-kappaB activation and sAPPalpha release were antagonized by CCE inhibitors (gadolinium or SKF96365) but not by voltage-gated Ca2+-channel blockers. On the other hand, treatment of cells with NF-kappaB inhibitors (SN50, BAY11-7085, MG132, or pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate) did not inhibit muscarinic receptor-mediated CCE. These findings provide evidence for the involvement of NF-kappaB regulated by CCE in muscarinic receptor-mediated sAPPalpha release enhancement.
