[PMID: 37263240 PMCID: PMC11014462 DOI: 10.1159/000531349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/03/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of smoking on dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) under different glycated albumin (GA) levels. METHODS We analyzed data from the Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients with Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events (CHANCE) trial. A subgroup of 3,044 patients with baseline GA levels was included and categorized by smoking status and GA levels. The primary efficacy outcome was a new stroke within 90 days. The safety outcome was any bleeding event at 90 days. The interaction of smoking status with antiplatelet therapy was calculated by Cox proportional hazards regression model. RESULTS In patients with GA levels ≤15.5%, the proportion of smokers was 37.7% (719/1,908), while in patients with GA levels >15.5%, it was 51.6% (586/1,136). During the 3-month follow-up period, 299 (9.9%) patients had a new stroke occurrence. In patients with elevated GA levels, both smokers and nonsmokers could not benefit from dual antiplatelet therapy (smokers, adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 0.70, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.42-1.17; nonsmokers, adjusted HR 0.82, 95% CI: 0.57-1.18). In patients with normal GA levels, dual antiplatelet therapy reduced the risk of stroke recurrence in smokers by 72% (adjusted HR 0.28, 95% CI: 0.14-0.56) and in nonsmokers by 53% (adjusted HR 0.47, 95% CI: 0.26-0.86). However, whether the GA level was elevated or normal, there was no significant interaction between smoking status and antiplatelet therapy. CONCLUSIONS Smokers with elevated GA levels could not benefit from dual antiplatelet therapy after minor stroke or TIA.

Transient receptor potential canonical type 6 (TRPC6) O-GlcNAcylation at Threonine-221 plays potent role in channel regulation. iScience 2023; 26:106294. [PMID: 36936781 PMCID: PMC10014292 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2023.106294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical type 6 (TRPC6) is a non-voltage-gated channel that principally conducts calcium. Elevated channel activation contributes to fibrosis, hypertrophy, and proteinuria, often coupled to stimulation of nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT). TRPC6 is post-translationally regulated, but a role for O-linked β-N-acetyl glucosamine (O-GlcNAcylation) as elevated by diabetes, is unknown. Here we show TRPC6 is constitutively O-GlcNAcylated at Ser14, Thr70, and Thr221 in the N-terminus ankryn-4 (AR4) and linker (LH1) domains. Mutagenesis to alanine reveals T221 as a critical controller of resting TRPC6 conductance, and associated NFAT activity and pro-hypertrophic signaling. T→A mutations at sites homologous in closely related TRPC3 and TRPC7 also increases their activity. Molecular modeling predicts interactions between Thr221-O-GlcNAc and Ser199, Glu200, and Glu246, and combined alanine substitutions of the latter similarly elevates resting NFAT activity. Thus, O-GlcNAcylated T221 and interactions with coordinating residues is required for normal TRPC6 channel conductance and NFAT activation.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins form a superfamily of cation channels that are expressed in a wide range of tissues and cell types. During the last years, great progress has been made in understanding the molecular complexity and the functions of TRP channels in diverse cellular processes, including cell proliferation, migration, adhesion and activation. The diversity of functions depends on multiple regulatory mechanisms by which TRP channels regulate Ca2+ entry mechanisms and intracellular Ca2+ dynamics, either through membrane depolarization involving cation influx or store- and receptor-operated mechanisms. Abnormal function or expression of TRP channels results in vascular pathologies, including hypertension, ischemic stroke and inflammatory disorders through effects on vascular cells, including the components of blood vessels and platelets. Moreover, some TRP family members also regulate megakaryopoiesis and platelet production, indicating a complex role of TRP channels in pathophysiological conditions. In this review, we describe potential roles of TRP channels in megakaryocytes and platelets, as well as their contribution to diseases such as thrombocytopenia, thrombosis and stroke. We also critically discuss the potential of TRP channels as possible targets for disease prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hypertonic dextrose solutions are commonly used injectates in regenerative medicine, sometimes used simultaneously. The effects of hypertonic dextrose on platelet lysis and activation have not been previously reported. We tested the effects of escalating dextrose concentration on cell counts and cell volume of platelets and red cells in PRP and whole blood (WB). A prompt partial reduction in platelet count occurred with all dextrose admixtures with either PRP or whole blood, consistent with partial lysis. After the first minute, platelet counts remained stable, suggesting a rapid accommodation of residual platelets to extreme (>2000 mOsm) hypertonicity. A 25% or higher dextrose concentration caused a significant increase in mean platelet volume (MPV), which suggests an early phase of platelet activation. Further investigation is warranted to confirm if platelet lysis or activation has occurred and whether additive clinical benefit may result from hypertonic dextrose injection alone or in combination with PRP.

Abstract
Background Recurrent moderate hypoglycemia (RH), a major adverse effect of hypoglycemic therapy in diabetic patients, is one of the main risk factors for cognitive impairment and dementia. Transient receptor potential canonical channel 6 (TRPC6) is a potential therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and its expression is highly regulated by glucose concentration. Objective To investigate whether RH regulates the expression of TRPC6 in brain and whether TRPC6 dysfunction can drive hypoglycemia‐associated cognitive impairment in diabetes, and reveal the underlying mechanism. Methods Histological staining, in vivo two‐photon Ca2+ imaging, and behavioral tests were used to measure neuronal death, brain network activity, and cognitive function in mice, respectively. High‐resolution respirometry and transmission electron microscope were used to assess mitochondrial structure and function. Intracellular calcium measurement and molecular biology techniques were conducted to uncover the underlying mechanism. Results Here, we report that the expression of TRPC6 in hippocampus was specifically repressed by RH in streptozocin‐induced type 1 diabetic mice, but not in nondiabetic mice. TRPC6 knockout directly leads to neuron loss, neuronal activity, and cognitive function impairment under diabetic condition, the degree of which is similar to that of RH. Activation of TRPC6 with hyperforin substantially improved RH‐induced cognitive impairment. Mechanistically, TRPC6 inhibited mitochondrial fission in the hippocampus of diabetic mice undergoing RH episodes by activating adenosine 5‘‐monophosphate‐activated protein kinase, and TRPC6‐mediated cytosolic calcium influx was required for this process. Clinically, dysfunction of TRPC6 was closely associated with cognitive impairment in type 2 diabetic patients with RH. Conclusions Our results indicate that TRPC6 is a critical sensitive cation channel to hypoglycemia and is a promising target to prevent RH‐induced cognitive impairment by properly orchestrating the mitochondrial dynamics in diabetic patients.

Abstract
High glucose (HG) increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to decreased glutamate uptake in Müller cells. The transient receptor potential cation channel 6 (TRPC6) channel, an oxidative stress-sensitive Ca2+-permeable cationic channel, is readily detected in Müller cells and highly expressed under HG conditions. Yet, the effect of high glucose-induced TRPC6 channel activation in Müller cells is poorly understood. We hypothesized that TRPC6 channel activation mediates high glucose-induced decreases in Müller cell glutamate uptake. We found RNA interference (RNAi) of the TRPC6 channel abolished HG-induced decreases in glutamate uptake and cell death. HG also decreased the expression of the glutamate-aspartate transporter (GLAST), which is the most important transporter involved in glutamate uptake. The mRNA level of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) in rMC-1 cells and the release of CNTF in the culture media was decreased, but the mRNA levels of IL-6 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were increased under HG conditions. After RNAi silencing in rMC-1 cells, the mRNA levels of CNTF increased, but IL-6 and VEGF levels decreased. Furthermore, TRPC6 knockdown (KD) decreased expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and increased expression of Kir4.1, pointing to inhibition of HG-induced gliosis in rMC-1 cells. ROS and intracellular Ca2+ levels decreased after TRPC6 knockdown. Exposure to Hyp9 (10 μM), a highly selective TRPC6 channel agonist, can aggravate HG-induced pathological changes. Collectively, our results suggest TRPC6 channel activation is involved in HG-induced decreases in glutamate uptake in rMC-1 cells. These findings provide novel insights into the role of TRPC6 in HG-induced retinal neurovasculopathy and suggest TRPC6 is a promising target for drug development for diabetic retinopathy (DR).

Abstract
Hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and free radicals result in platelet activation and atherogenesis. Kisspeptin (KP) is able to regulate metabolism, hemostasis, and the development of atherosclerosis. We examined whether platelet aggregation of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats depends on the inducer type and if KP-13 and RF-9 (a kisspeptin receptor modifier) can influence platelet function. We measured the speed and the maximum of aggregation, along with the area under the curve. Serum glucose and calcium levels and urine formation of diabetic animals increased, while the body mass and platelet count decreased. Collagen was the most effective inducer of platelet aggregation. The aggregability of nondiabetic platelets was elevated in the presence of 5 × 10−8 mol/L KP-13. This effect was less expressed in diabetic animals. The effectivity of RF-9 was stronger than that of KP-13 in nondiabetic platelets, however it was ineffective in diabetic animals. RF-9 pre-treatment did not change the effects of 5 × 10−8 mol/L KP-13 in either animal group. The in vivo activation of diabetic platelets, which may be due to elevated serum calcium, induces thrombocytopenia and may lead to reduced in vitro aggregability. We could not demonstrate the antagonistic effect of RF-9 against KP-13 in isolated platelets.

Abstract
The canonical transient receptor potential channels (TRPCs) constitute a series of nonselective cation channels with variable degrees of Ca2+ selectivity. TRPCs consist of seven mammalian members, TRPC1, TRPC2, TRPC3, TRPC4, TRPC5, TRPC6, and TRPC7, which are further divided into four subtypes, TRPC1, TRPC2, TRPC4/5, and TRPC3/6/7. These channels take charge of various essential cell functions such as contraction, relaxation, proliferation, and dysfunction. This review, organized into seven main sections, will provide an overview of current knowledge about the underlying pathogenesis of TRPCs in cardio/cerebrovascular diseases, including hypertension, pulmonary arterial hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, atherosclerosis, arrhythmia, and cerebrovascular ischemia reperfusion injury. Collectively, TRPCs could become a group of drug targets with important physiological functions for the therapy of human cardio/cerebro-vascular diseases.

Abstract
A diabetic vasculature is detrimental to cardiovascular health through the actions of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on endothelial cells and platelets. Platelets activated by AGEs agonize endothelial responses promoting cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. While it has been established that AGEs can alter platelet functions, little is known about the specific platelet pathways that AGEs modify. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of AGEs on specific salient platelet pathways related to CVDs and whether the effects that AGEs elicit are dependent on glycation extent. To accomplish our objective, platelets were incubated with reversibly or irreversibly glycated albumin. A time course for adhesion and aggregation agonist receptor expression was assessed. Optical platelet aggregometry was used to confirm the functional activity of platelets after AGE exposure. In general, platelets subjected to glycated albumin had a significantly enhanced adhesion and aggregation potential. Furthermore, we observed an enhancement in dense body secretion and intracellular calcium concentration. This was especially prevalent for platelets exposed to irreversibly glycated albumin. Additionally, functional aggregation correlated well with receptor expression, suggesting that AGE-induced altered receptor sensitivity translated to altered platelet functions. Our findings indicate that under diabetic vascular conditions platelets become more susceptible to activation and aggregation due to an overall enhanced receptor expression, which may act to promote CVD development.

Abstract
Excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by hyperglycemia increased the secretion of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), which contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetes and its complications. Although high glucose (HG)-induced oxidative stress and aberrant Ca2+ channels activity causes an increase in transmembrane Ca2+ influx, however the relative contribution of Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels is not well studied. Here, we identified that HG (30 mM glucose for 48 h) induced the activation of the NLRP3-ASC inflammasome, leading to caspase-1 activation, and IL-1β and IL-18 secretion in human monocytic cell lines. Moreover, we used a hyperglycemia model in U937 monocytes, showing that the activation of TRPM2 was augmented, and TRPM2-mediated Ca2+ influx was critical for NLRP3 inflammasome activation. This pathway involved NADPH oxidase-dependent ROS production and TXNIP-NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. Furthermore, the inhibition of TRPM2 reduced ROS production and lowered NADPH oxidase activity via cooperatively interaction with p47 phox in response to HG. These results provided a mechanistic linking between TRPM2-mediated Ca2+ influx and p47 phox signaling to induce excess ROS production and TXNIP-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation under HG, and suggested that TRPM2 represented a potential target for alleviating NLRP3 inflammasome activation related to hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress in Type 2 diabetes Mellitus (T2DM).

TRP Channels as Therapeutic Targets in Diabetes and Obesity. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2016; 9:ph9030050.

Abstract
During the last three to four decades the prevalence of obesity and diabetes mellitus has greatly increased worldwide, including in the United States. Both the short- and long-term forecasts predict serious consequences for the near future, and encourage the development of solutions for the prevention and management of obesity and diabetes mellitus. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels were identified in tissues and organs important for the control of whole body metabolism. A variety of TRP channels has been shown to play a role in the regulation of hormone release, energy expenditure, pancreatic function, and neurotransmitter release in control, obese and/or diabetic conditions. Moreover, dietary supplementation of natural ligands of TRP channels has been shown to have potential beneficial effects in obese and diabetic conditions. These findings raised the interest and likelihood for potential drug development. In this mini-review, we discuss possibilities for better management of obesity and diabetes mellitus based on TRP-dependent mechanisms.

Abstract
Members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of cation conducting channels are found in several tissues and cell types where they have different physiological functions. The canonical TRP channel 6 (TRPC6) is present on the platelet membrane and appears to participate in calcium influx during platelet activation. However, limited information is available on the importance of TRPC channels in megakaryocytes (MKs), the precursor cells of platelets. We determined the mRNA and protein expression of TRPC family members and investigated the role of TRPC6 for proliferation and differentiation of human MKs derived from CD34+ progenitor cells. TRPC6 transcripts were highly expressed during the differentiation of MKs and TRPC6 protein was detectable in MK cytoplasm by confocal staining. TRPC6 channel activity was modulated by pharmacological approaches using flufenamic acid (FFA) for activation and SKF96365 for inhibition. Upon FFA stimulation in MKs, an increase in intracellular calcium was observed, which was blocked by SKF96365 at 10 µM concentration. Incubation of MKs with SKF96365 resulted in a reduction in thrombopoietin-stimulated cell proliferation. Our results suggest a role of TRPC6 in calcium homeostasis during MK development, particularly for cell proliferation.

Abstract
Canonical transient receptor potential 6 (TRPC6) proteins assemble into heteromultimeric structures forming non-selective cation channels. In addition, many TRPC6-interacting proteins have been identified like some enzymes, channels, pumps, cytoskeleton-associated proteins, immunophilins, or cholesterol-binding proteins, indicating that TRPC6 are engaged into macromolecular complexes. Depending on the cell type and the experimental conditions used, TRPC6 activity has been reported to be controlled by diverse modalities. For instance, the second messenger diacylglycerol, store-depletion, the plant extract hyperforin or H2O2 have all been shown to trigger the opening of TRPC6 channels. A well-characterized consequence of TRPC6 activation is the elevation of the cytosolic concentration of Ca(2+). This latter response can reflect the entry of Ca(2+) through open TRPC6 channels but it can also be due to the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (operating in its reverse mode) or voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels (recruited in response to a TRPC6-mediated depolarization). Although TRPC6 controls a diverse array of biological functions in many tissues and cell types, its pathophysiological functions are far from being fully understood. This chapter covers some key features of TRPC6, with a special emphasis on their biological significance in kidney and blood cells.

Abstract
Agonist-induced changes in cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]c) are central events in platelet physiology. A major mechanism supporting agonist-induced Ca(2+) signals is store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE), where the Ca(2+) sensor STIM1 and the channels of the Orai family, as well as TRPC members are the key elements. STIM1-dependent SOCE plays a major role in collagen-stimulated Ca(2+) signaling, phosphatidylserine exposure and thrombin generation. Furthermore, studies involving Orai1 gain-of-function mutants and platelets from Orai1-deficient mice have revealed the importance of this channel in thrombosis and hemostasis to those found in STIM1-deficient mice indicating that SOCE might play a prominent role in thrombus formation. Moreover, increase in TRPC6 expression might lead to thrombosis in humans. The role of STIM1, Orai1 and TRPCs, and thus SOCE, in thrombus formation, suggests that therapies directed against SOCE and targeting these molecules during cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events could significantly improve traditional anti-thrombotic treatments.

The effect of clopidogrel on platelet activity in patients with and without type-2 diabetes mellitus: a comparative study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2015; 14:15.

Abstract
Background Although antiplatelet therapy involving clopidogrel is a standard treatment for preventing cardiovascular events after coronary stent implantation, patients can display differential responses. Here, we assessed the effectiveness of clopidogrel on platelet function inhibition in subjects with and without type-2 diabetes and stable coronary artery disease. In addition, we investigated the correlation between platelet function and routine clinical parameters. Methods A total of 64 patients with stable coronary heart disease were enrolled in the study. Among these, 32 had known type-2 diabetes, whereas the remaining 32 subjects were non-diabetics (control group). A loading dose of 300 mg clopidogrel was given to clopidogrel-naïve patients (13 patients in the diabetes group and 14 control patients). All patients were given a daily maintenance dose of 75 mg clopidogrel. In addition, all patients received 100 mg ASA per day. Agonist-induced platelet aggregation measurements were performed on hirudin-anticoagulated blood using an impedance aggregometer (Multiple Platelet Function Analyzer, Dynabyte, Munich, Germany). Blood samples were drawn from the antecubital vein 24 h after coronary angiography with percutaneous coronary intervention. The platelets were then stimulated with ADP alone or ADP and prostaglandin-E (ADP and ADP-PGE tests, respectively) in order to evaluate clopidogrel-mediated inhibition of platelet function. The effectiveness of ASA was measured by stimulation with arachidonic acid (ASPI test). In addition, maximal platelet aggregation was assessed via stimulation with thrombin receptor-activating peptide (TRAP test). Results Patients with diabetes exhibited significantly less inhibition of platelet function than patients without diabetes (ADP-PGE test p = 0.003; ASPI test p = 0.022). Administering a clopidogrel loading dose of 300 mg did not result in a lower level of ADP-PGE-induced platelet reactivity in comparison to the use of a 75 mg maintenance dose. Moreover, we observed that ADP-PGE-induced platelet inhibition was positively correlated with fasting blood glucose and HbA1c (p < 0.01). Conclusions Patients with type-2 diabetes exhibited increased platelet reactivity compared to patients without diabetes despite combined treatment with clopidogrel and ASA. Using a loading dose of clopidogrel rather than small daily doses was not sufficient for adequately overcoming increased platelet reactivity in patients with type-2 diabetes, highlighting the need for more effective anti-platelet drugs for such patients.

High glucose enhances store-operated calcium entry by upregulating ORAI/STIM via calcineurin-NFAT signalling. J Mol Med (Berl) 2014; 93:511-21. [PMID: 25471481 DOI: 10.1007/s00109-014-1234-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2014] [Revised: 11/06/2014] [Accepted: 11/19/2014] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED ORAI and stromal interaction molecule (STIM) are store-operated channel molecules that play essential roles in human physiology through a coupling mechanism of internal Ca(2+) store to Ca(2+) influx. However, the roles of ORAI and STIM in vascular endothelial cells under diabetic conditions remain unknown. Here, we investigated expression and signalling pathways of ORAI and STIM regulated by high glucose or hyperglycaemia using in vitro cell models, in vivo diabetic mice and tissues from patients. We found that ORAI1-3 and STIM1-2 were ubiquitously expressed in human vasculatures. Their expression was upregulated by chronic treatment with high glucose (HG, 25 mM D-glucose), which was accompanied by enhanced store-operated Ca(2+) influx in vascular endothelial cells. The increased expression was also observed in the aortae from genetically modified Akita diabetic mice (C57BL/6-Ins2(Akita)/J) and streptozocin-induced diabetic mice, and aortae from diabetic patients. HG-induced upregulation of ORAI and STIM genes was prevented by the calcineurin inhibitor cyclosporin A and NFATc3 siRNA. Additionally, in vivo treatment with the nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) inhibitor A-285222 prevented the gene upregulation in Akita mice. However, HG had no direct effects on ORAI1-3 currents and the channel activation process through cytosolic STIM1 movement in the cells co-expressing STIM1-EYFP/ORAIs. We concluded that upregulation of STIM/ORAI through Ca(2+)-calcineurin-NFAT pathway is a novel mechanism causing abnormal Ca(2+) homeostasis and endothelial dysfunction under hyperglycaemia. KEY MESSAGE ORAI1-3 and STIM1-2 are ubiquitously expressed in vasculatures and upregulated by high glucose. Increased expression is confirmed in Akita (Ins2(Akita)/J) and STZ diabetic mice and patients. Upregulation mechanism is mediated by Ca(2+)/calcineurin/NFATc3 signalling. High glucose has no direct effects on ORAI1-3 channel activity and channel activation process.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Downregulation of calsequestrin (CSQ), a major Ca(2+) storage protein, may contribute significantly to the hyperactivity of internal Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)]i) in diabetic platelets. Here, we investigated changes in CSQ-1 abundance, Ca(2+) signaling and aggregation responses to stimulation with the progression of diabetes, especially the mechanism(s) underlying the exaggerated Ca(2+) influx in diabetic platelets. MATERIALS AND METHODS Type 1 diabetes was induced by streptozotocin in rats. Platelet [Ca(2+)]i and aggregation responses upon ADP stimulation were assessed by fluorescence spectrophotometry and aggregometry, respectively. CSQ-1 expression was evaluated using western blotting. RESULTS During the 12-week course of diabetes, the abundance of CSQ-1, basal [Ca(2+)]i and ADP-induced Ca(2+) release were progressively altered in diabetic platelets, while the elevated Ca(2+) influx and platelet aggregation were not correlated with diabetes development. 2-Aminoethoxydiphenyl borate, the store-operated Ca(2+) channel blocker, almost completely abolished ADP-induced Ca(2+) influx in normal and diabetic platelets, whereas nifedipine, an inhibitor of the nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate receptor, showed no effect. Additionally, inhibition of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange induced much slower Ca(2+) extrusion and more Ca(2+) influx in normal platelets than in diabetic platelets. Furthermore, under the condition of Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibition, ionomycin caused greater Ca(2+) mobilization and Ca(2+) influx in diabetic platelets than in normal platelets. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that platelet hyperactivity in diabetes is caused by several integrated factors. Besides the downregulation of CSQ-1 that mainly disrupts basal Ca(2+) homeostasis, insufficient Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange also contributes, at least in part, to the hyperactive Ca(2+) response to stimulation in diabetic platelets.

Abstract
TRPC4 proteins comprise six transmembrane domains, a putative pore-forming region, and an intracellularly located amino- and carboxy-terminus. Among eleven splice variants identified so far, TRPC4α and TRPC4β are the most abundantly expressed and functionally characterized. TRPC4 is expressed in various organs and cell types including the soma and dendrites of numerous types of neurons; the cardiovascular system including endothelial, smooth muscle, and cardiac cells; myometrial and skeletal muscle cells; kidney; and immune cells such as mast cells. Both recombinant and native TRPC4-containing channels differ tremendously in their permeability and other biophysical properties, pharmacological modulation, and mode of activation depending on the cellular environment. They vary from inwardly rectifying store-operated channels with a high Ca(2+) selectivity to non-store-operated channels predominantly carrying Na(+) and activated by Gαq- and/or Gαi-coupled receptors with a complex U-shaped current-voltage relationship. Thus, individual TRPC4-containing channels contribute to agonist-induced Ca(2+) entry directly or indirectly via depolarization and activation of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels. The differences in channel properties may arise from variations in the composition of the channel complexes, in the specific regulatory pathways in the corresponding cell system, and/or in the expression pattern of interaction partners which comprise other TRPC proteins to form heteromultimeric channels. Additional interaction partners of TRPC4 that can mediate the activity of TRPC4-containing channels include (1) scaffolding proteins (e.g., NHERF) that may mediate interactions with signaling molecules in or in close vicinity to the plasma membrane such as Gα proteins or phospholipase C and with the cytoskeleton, (2) proteins in specific membrane microdomains (e.g., caveolin-1), or (3) proteins on cellular organelles (e.g., Stim1). The diversity of TRPC4-containing channels hampers the development of specific agonists or antagonists, but recently, ML204 was identified as a blocker of both recombinant and endogenous TRPC4-containing channels with an IC50 in the lower micromolar range that lacks activity on most voltage-gated channels and other TRPs except TRPC5 and TRPC3. Lanthanides are specific activators of heterologously expressed TRPC4- and TRPC5-containing channels but can block individual native TRPC4-containing channels. The biological relevance of TRPC4-containing channels was demonstrated by knockdown of TRPC4 expression in numerous native systems including gene expression, cell differentiation and proliferation, formation of myotubes, and axonal regeneration. Studies of TRPC4 single and TRPC compound knockout mice uncovered their role for the regulation of vascular tone, endothelial permeability, gastrointestinal contractility and motility, neurotransmitter release, and social exploratory behavior as well as for excitotoxicity and epileptogenesis. Recently, a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the Trpc4 gene was associated with a reduced risk for experience of myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Recent preclinical data indicate that activators of transient receptor potential channels of the vanilloid receptor subtype 1 (TRPV1) may improve the outcome of ischaemic acute kidney injury (AKI). The underlying mechanisms are unclear, but may involve TRPV1 channels in dorsal root ganglion neurones that innervate the kidney. Recent data identified TRPV4, together with TRPV1, to serve as major calcium influx channels in endothelial cells. In these cells, gating of individual TRPV4 channels within a four-channel cluster provides elementary calcium influx (calcium sparklets) to open calcium-activated potassium channels and promote vasodilation. The TRPV receptors can also form heteromers that exhibit unique conductance and gating properties, further increasing their spatio-functional diversity. This review summarizes data on electrophysiological properties of TRPV1/4 and their modulation by endogenous channel agonists such as 20-HETE, phospholipase C and phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3 kinase). We review important roles of TRPV1 and TRPV4 in kidney physiology and renal ischaemia reperfusion injury; further studies are warranted to address renoprotective mechanism of vanilloid receptors in ischaemic AKI including the role of the capsaicin receptor TRPV1 in primary sensory nerves and/or endothelium. Particular attention should be paid to understand the kidneys' ability to respond to ischaemic stimuli after catheter-based renal denervation therapy in man, whereas the discovery of novel pharmacological TRPV modulators may be a successful strategy for better treatment of acute or chronic kidney failure.

Role of oxidative stress and Ca²⁺ signaling on molecular pathways of neuropathic pain in diabetes: focus on TRP channels. Neurochem Res 2012; 37:2065-75.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a debilitating chronic disease, affects ~100 million people. Peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common early complications of diabetes in ~66 % of these patients. Altered Ca(2+) handling and Ca(2+) signaling were detected in a huge variety of preparations isolated from animals with experimentally induced type 1 and 2 diabetes as well as patients suffering from the disease. We reviewed the role of Ca(2+) signaling through cation channels and oxidative stress on diabetic neuropathic pain in sensory neurons. The pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy involves the polyol pathway, advanced glycation end products, oxidative stress, protein kinase C activation, neurotrophism, and hypoxia. Experimental studies with respect to oxidative stress and Ca(2+) signaling, inhibitor roles of antioxidants in diabetic neuropathic pain are also summarized in the review. We hypothesize that deficits in insulin, triggers alterations of sensory neurone phenotype that are critical for the development of abnormal Ca(2+) homeostasis and oxidative stress and associated mitochondrial dysfunction. The transient receptor potential channels are a large family of proteins with six main subfamilies. The sheer number of different TRPs with distinct functions supports the statement that these channels are involved in a wide range of processes ranging in diabetic neuropathic pain and it seems that the TRPC, TRPM and TRPV groups are mostly responsible from diabetic neuropathic pain. In conclusion, the accumulating evidence implicating Ca(2+) dysregulation and over production of oxidative stress products in diabetic neuropathic pains, along with recent advances in understanding of genetic variations in cation channels such as TRP channels, makes modulation of neuronal Ca(2+) handling an increasingly viable approach for therapeutic interventions against the painful and degenerative aspects of many diabetic neuropathies.

Abstract
TRPC6 is a cation channel in the plasma membrane that plays a role in Ca(2+) entry after the stimulation of a G(q)-protein-coupled or tyrosine-kinase receptor. TRPC6 translocates to the plasma membrane upon stimulation and remains there as long as the stimulus is present. However, the mechanism that regulates the trafficking and activation of TRPC6 are unclear. In this study we showed phosphoinositide 3-kinase and its antagonistic phosphatase, PTEN, are involved in the activation of TRPC6. The inhibition of PI3K by PIK-93, LY294002, or wortmannin decreased carbachol-induced translocation of TRPC6 to the plasma membrane and carbachol-induced net Ca(2+) entry into T6.11 cells. Conversely, a reduction of PTEN expression did not affect carbachol-induced externalization of TRPC6 but increased Ca(2+) entry through TRPC6 in T6.11 cells. We also showed that the PI3K/PTEN pathway regulates vasopressin-induced translocation of TRPC6 to the plasma membrane and vasopressin-induced Ca(2+) entry into A7r5 cells, which endogenously express TRPC6. In summary, we provided evidence that the PI3K/PTEN pathway plays an important role in the translocation of TRPC6 to the plasma membrane and may thus have a significant impact on Ca(2+) signaling in cells that endogenously express TRPC6.

Abstract
Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channel proteins have been identified as downstream molecules in a G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and are involved in a variety of cell functions due to their ability to regulate intracellular calcium signaling. TRPC channel physiology has been an increasingly interesting and relevant topic over the last decade, and the outcomes from various studies have advanced our understanding of TRPC function in the normal state. Recently, attention has turned to whether or not TRPC proteins are implicated in diseases. Emerging evidence suggests a significant contribution of several isoforms of TRPC proteins to cardiovascular as well as renal diseases. This review focuses on the implication of TRPC proteins as they pertain to diabetes. We summarize the recent findings by other investigators as well as ourselves and additionally discuss the important role of TRPC proteins in the development of various diabetic complications, such as diabetic nephropathy and diabetic vasculopathy. The underlying mechanisms which contribute to these complications are also outlined. Lastly, we elaborate on the role of TRPC proteins as a potential therapeutic target for treating diabetes-associated diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Syndecan 4 (Sdc4) modulates signal transduction and regulates activity of protein channels. Sdc4 is essential for the regulation of cellular permeability. We hypothesized that Sdc4 may regulate transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6) channels, a determinant of glomerular permeability, in a RhoA/Rho-associated protein kinase-dependent manner. METHODS AND RESULTS Sdc4 knockout (Sdc4(-/-)) mice showed increased glomerular filtration rate and ameliorated albuminuria under baseline conditions and after bovine serum albumin overload (each P<0.05). Using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and immunoblotting, Sdc4(-/-) mice showed reduced TRPC6 mRNA by 79% and TRPC6 protein by 82% (each P<0.05). Sdc4(-/-) mice showed an increased RhoA activity by 87% and increased phosphorylation of ezrin in glomeruli by 48% (each P<0.05). Sdc4 knockdown in cultured podocytes reduced TRPC6 gene expression and reduced the association of TRPC6 with plasma membrane and TRPC6-mediated calcium influx and currents. Sdc4 knockdown inactivated negative regulatory protein Rho GTPase activating protein by 33%, accompanied by a 41% increase in RhoA activity and increased phosphorylation of ezrin (P<0.05). Conversely, overexpression of Sdc4 reduced RhoA activity and increased TRPC6 protein and TRPC6-mediated calcium influx and currents. CONCLUSIONS Our results establish a previously unknown function of Sdc4 for regulation of TRPC6 channels and support the role of Sdc4 for the regulation of glomerular permeability.

Abstract
Agonist-evoked Ca(2+) entry has been reported to be enhanced in platelets from type 2 diabetic patients, which results in altered platelet responsiveness and cardiovascular complications. The present study is aimed to investigate whether store-operated divalent cation entry, a major Ca(2+) entry pathway, is altered in platelets from diabetic patients. Store-operated divalent cation entry was estimated by determination of Mn(2+) entry. Association between STIM1, Orai1, hTRPC1 and hTRPC6 was detected by co-immunoprecipitation and Western blotting. In the presence of specific purinergic and serotoninergic receptor antagonists Mn(2+) entry, induced by thapsigargin (TG), was reduced in platelets from diabetic donors as compared to healthy controls. Treatment with TG or the agonist thrombin enhanced co-immunoprecipitation of STIM1 with Orai1, hTRPC1 and hTRPC6 in platelets from healthy donors, a response that was significantly reduced in platelets from diabetic patients. Our results indicate that store-operated divalent cation entry is reduced in platelets from type 2 diabetic subjects, which is likely mediated by impairment of the association of STIM1 with the channel subunits Orai1, hTRPC1 and hTRPC6 and might be involved in the pathogenesis of the altered platelet responsiveness observed in diabetic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous studies show that endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) plays a prominent role in maintaining cerebral blood flow and preventing stroke. Capsaicin in hot pepper can increase the phosphorylation of eNOS in endothelial cells. We test the hypothesis that chronic dietary capsaicin can prevent stroke through activation of cerebrovascular transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channels in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRsp). METHODS SHRsp were fed dietary capsaicin, and their onset of stroke was examined. TRPV1 knockout and transgenic mice were used for determining the function of TRPV1 channels. Expression of eNOS and cerebrovascular reactivity were examined. RESULTS Immunofluorescence showed TRPV1 channels and eNOS coexpression in cerebral arterioles. Administration of capsaicin significantly increased phosphorylated eNOS in carotid arteries from wild-type mice but not in TRPV1 knockout mice. Inhibition of eNOS using N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, removal of endothelium, or mutant TRPV1 significantly reduced capsaicin-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation of basilar arteries in mice. Chronic dietary capsaicin also remarkably increased eNOS expression in carotid arteries from SHRsp. Compared with Wistar-Kyoto rats, SHRsp had impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation of basilar arteries. Administration of capsaicin or L-arginine significantly improved the endothelium-dependent relaxation of basilar arteries in SHRsp. SHRsp had hypertrophy of cerebral arterioles, which was reversed by dietary capsaicin. Importantly, long-term administration of capsaicin significantly delayed the onset of stroke and increased the survival time in SHRsp. CONCLUSIONS Activation of TRPV1 channels by dietary capsaicin mediated increases in phosphorylation of eNOS and could represent a novel target for dietary intervention of stroke.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential (TRP) channel superfamily is composed of 28 nonselective cation channels that are ubiquitously expressed in many cell types and have considerable functional diversity. Although changes in TRP channel expression and function have been reported in cardiovascular disease and renal disorders, the pathogenic roles of TRP channels in metabolic diseases have not been systemically reviewed. In this review, we summarised the distribution of TRP channels in several metabolic tissues and discussed their roles in mediating and regulating various physiological and pathophysiological metabolic processes and diseases including diabetes, obesity, dyslipidaemia, metabolic syndrome, atherosclerosis, metabolic bone diseases and electrolyte disturbances. This review provides new insight into the involvement of TRP channels in the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders and implicates these channels as potential therapeutic targets for the management of metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Platelet activation must be tightly controlled to provide an effective, but not excessive, response to vascular injury. Cytosolic calcium is a critical regulator of platelet function, including granule secretion, integrin activation, and phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure. Here we report that the novel protein kinase C isoform, PKCtheta, plays an important role in negatively regulating Ca(2+) signaling downstream of the major collagen receptor, glycoprotein VI (GPVI). This limits PS exposure and so may prevent excessive platelet procoagulant activity. Stimulation of GPVI resulted in significantly higher and more sustained Ca(2+) signals in PKCtheta(-/-) platelets. PKCtheta acts at multiple distinct sites. PKCtheta limits secretion, reducing autocrine ADP signaling that enhances Ca(2+) release from intracellular Ca(2+) stores. PKCtheta thereby indirectly regulates activation of store-operated Ca(2+) entry. However, PKCtheta also directly and negatively regulates store-independent Ca(2+) entry. This pathway, activated by the diacylglycerol analogue, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol, was enhanced in PKCtheta(-/-) platelets, independently of ADP secretion. Moreover, LOE-908, which blocks 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol-induced Ca(2+) entry but not store-operated Ca(2+) entry, blocked the enhanced GPVI-dependent Ca(2+) signaling and PS exposure seen in PKCtheta(-/-) platelets. We propose that PKCtheta normally acts to restrict store-independent Ca(2+) entry during GPVI signaling, which results in reduced PS exposure, limiting platelet procoagulant activity during thrombus formation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Transient receptor potential (TRP) channel-induced cation influx activates human monocytes, which play an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. In the present study, we investigated the effects of high glucose-induced oxidative stress on TRP channel expression in human monocytes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Human monocytes were exposed to control conditions (5.6 mmol/l d-glucose), high glucose (30 mmol/l d-glucose or l-glucose), 100 micromol/l peroxynitrite, or high glucose in the presence of the superoxide dismutase mimetic tempol (100 micromol/l). TRP mRNA and TRP protein expression was measured using quantitative real-time RT-PCR and quantitative in-cell Western assay, respectively. Calcium influx and intracellular reactive oxygen species were measured using fluorescent dyes. RESULTS Administration of high d-glucose significantly increased reactive oxygen species. High d-glucose or peroxynitrite significantly increased the expression of TRP canonical type 1 (TRPC1), TRPC3, TRPC5, TRPC6, TRP melastatin type 6 (TRPM6), and TRPM7 mRNA and TRPC3 and TRPC6 proteins. High d-glucose plus tempol or high l-glucose did not affect TRP expression. Increased oxidative stress by lipopolysaccharide or tumor necrosis factor-alpha increased TRP mRNA expression, whereas the reduction of superoxide radicals using diphenylene iodonium significantly reduced TRP mRNA expression. Increased TRPC3 and TRPC6 protein expression was accompanied by increased 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol-induced calcium influx, which was blocked by the TRPC inhibitor 2-aminoethoxydiphenylborane. TRPC6 mRNA was significantly higher in monocytes from 18 patients with type 2 diabetes compared with 28 control subjects (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS High d-glucose-induced oxidative stress increases TRP expression and calcium influx in human monocytes, pointing to a novel pathway for increased activation of monocytes and hence atherosclerosis in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
1. Previously, we found that Ca(2+) entry from the extracellular space via alpha(1)-adrenoceptor-activated, Ca(2+)-permeable channels, but not voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels, is impaired in endothelium-denuded caudal artery smooth muscle from Type 2 diabetic Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats. In the present study, we investigated the impairment of Ca(2+) entry mechanisms via Ca(2+)-permeable channels from the extracellular space in response to alpha(1)-adrenoceptor stimulation (cirazoline) in endothelium-denuded caudal artery strips isolated from GK rats. 2. The contraction of caudal artery strips from GK rats in response to the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor cyclopiazonic acid (10 micromol/L), which causes depletion of Ca(2+) stores and subsequent store-operated Ca(2+) (SOC) entry, was significantly depressed compared with that of Wistar rats (maximal force 0.023 +/- 0.004 vs 0.058 +/- 0.005 mN/mg tissue wet weight, respectively). These results suggest that receptor-activated Ca(2+) entry through SOC channels is impaired in caudal artery smooth muscle in GK rats. 3. The classic transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels, which constitute SOC and receptor-operated cation channels, play an important role in Ca(2+) regulation. Therefore, we investigated the mRNA and protein expression of TRPC channels in caudal artery smooth muscle from Wistar and GK rats using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and immunoblotting. 4. Expression of TRPC1, TRPC3 and TRPC6 mRNA and protein was found in Wistar rats. However, in GK rats, in addition to the expression of these TRPC channels, mRNA and protein expression of TRPC4 was found. The expression of TRPC1 and TRPC6, but not TRPC3, was increased approximately twofold in GK rats compared with Wistar rats. 5. These results suggest that changes in TRPC channel expression may be responsible, in part, for the dysfunction of receptor-mediated Ca(2+) entry in caudal artery smooth muscle of GK rats.

Abstract
Telmisartan shows antihypertensive and several pleiotropic effects that interact with metabolic pathways. In the present study we tested the hypothesis that telmisartan prevents adipogenesis in vitro and weight gain in vivo through activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-delta-dependent pathways in several tissues. In vitro, telmisartan significantly upregulated PPAR-delta expression in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Other than enhancing PPAR-delta expression by 68.2+/-17.3% and PPAR-delta activity by 102.0+/-9.0%, telmisartan also upregulated PPAR-gamma expression, whereas neither candesartan nor losartan affected PPAR-delta expression. In vivo, long-term administration of telmisartan significantly reduced visceral fat and prevented high-fat diet-induced obesity in wild-type mice and hypertensive rats but not in PPAR-delta knockout mice. Administration of telmisartan did not influence food intake in mice. Telmisartan influenced several lipolytic and energy uncoupling related proteins (UCPs) and enhanced phosphorylated protein kinase A and hormone sensitive lipase but reduced perilipin expression and finally inhibited adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Telmisartan-associated reduction of adipogenesis in preadipocytes was significantly blocked after PPAR-delta gene knockout. Chronic telmisartan treatment upregulated the expressions of protein kinase A, hormone-sensitive lipase, and uncoupling protein 1 but reduced perilipin expression in adipose tissue and increased uncoupling protein 2 and 3 expression in skeletal muscle in wild-type mice but not in PPAR-delta knockout mice. We conclude that telmisartan prevents adipogenesis and weight gain through activation of PPAR-delta-dependent lipolytic pathways and energy uncoupling in several tissues.

Abstract
Coronary stent thrombosis is a serious problem in the drug-eluting stent era. Despite aggressive antiplatelet therapy during and after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the incidence of sub-acute stent thrombosis remains approximately 0.5%–2%, which may represent a catastrophic clinical situation. Both procedural factors and discontinuation of antiplatelet therapy are normally associated with this event. We report on simultaneous stent thromboses of two drug-eluting stents implanted in two different vessels, which resulted in a life-threatening clinical condition. Possible contributing factors that led to synergistic thrombotic effects are discussed.

Abstract
Plasma epinephrine and heart rate are elevated in metabolic syndrome, suggesting enhanced catecholamine secretion from the adrenal medulla. Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels are implicated in mediating hormone-induced Ca(2+) influx and catecholamine secretion in adrenomedullary chromaffin cells. We studied the pattern of TRPC expression in the pig adrenal medulla and investigated whether adrenal TRPC expression is altered in prediabetic metabolic syndrome Ossabaw miniature pigs. We used a combination of molecular biological, biochemical, and fluorescence imaging techniques. We determined the sequence of pig TRPC1 and TRPC3-7 channels. We found that the pig adrenal medulla expressed predominantly TRPC1, TRPC5, and TRPC6 transcripts. The expression level of these TRPCs was significantly elevated in the adrenal medulla from pigs with metabolic syndrome. Interestingly, aldosterone, which is endogenously secreted in the adjacent adrenal cortex, increased TRPC1, TRPC5, and TRPC6 expression in adrenal chromaffin cells isolated from metabolic syndrome but not control pigs. Spironolactone, a blocker of mineralocorticoid receptors, inhibited the aldosterone effect. Dexamethasone also increased TRPC5 expression in metabolic syndrome chromaffin cells. The amplitude of hormone-induced divalent cation influx correlated with the level of TRPC expression in adrenal chromaffin cells. Orai1/Stim1 protein expression was not significantly altered in the metabolic syndrome adrenal medulla when compared with the control. We propose that in metabolic syndrome, abnormally elevated adrenal TRPC expression may underlie increased plasma epinephrine and heart rate. The excess of plasma catecholamines and increased heart rate are risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Thus, TRPCs are potential therapeutic targets in the fight against cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
The existence of a mammalian family of TRPC ion channels, direct homologues of TRP, the visual transduction channel of flies, was discovered during 1995-1996 as a consequence of research into the mechanism by which the stimulation of the receptor-Gq-phospholipase Cbeta signaling pathway leads to sustained increases in intracellular calcium. Mammalian TRPs, TRPCs, turned out to be nonselective, calcium-permeable cation channels, which cause both a collapse of the cell's membrane potential and entry of calcium. The family comprises 7 members and is widely expressed. Many cells and tissues express between 3 and 4 of the 7 TRPCs. Despite their recent discovery, a wealth of information has accumulated, showing that TRPCs have widespread roles in almost all cells studied, including cells from excitable and nonexcitable tissues, such as the nervous and cardiovascular systems, the kidney and the liver, and cells from endothelia, epithelia, and the bone marrow compartment. Disruption of TRPC function is at the root of some familial diseases. More often, TRPCs are contributing risk factors in complex diseases. The present article reviews what has been uncovered about physiological roles of mammalian TRPC channels since the time of their discovery. This analysis reveals TRPCs as major and unsuspected gates of Ca(2+) entry that contribute, depending on context, to activation of transcription factors, apoptosis, vascular contractility, platelet activation, and cardiac hypertrophy, as well as to normal and abnormal cell proliferation. TRPCs emerge as targets for a thus far nonexistent field of pharmacological intervention that may ameliorate complex diseases.
