Abstract
Background Transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) affects immune responses by regulating calcium homeostasis, but its role in calcific aortic valve inflammation remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the expression and function of TRPM4 in patients with or without calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). Methods The mRNA and protein expression levels of TRPM4 and related factors in calcified and noncalcified tissues were measured using qRT-PCR and Western blot. The proteins interacting with TRPM4 were confirmed by RNA pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay was performed to confirm the m6A site of TRPM4. Results The mRNA expression levels of TRPM4, TLR4, IL-6, MCP-1, TNF-α, and NF-κB p65 were significantly higher in calcified aortic valve tissues than in noncalcified tissues, and TRPM4 was significantly positively correlated with inflammation-related factors. The protein expression level of TRPM4, TLR4 and NF-κB p65 were significantly higher in calcified aortic valve tissues than in noncalcified tissues. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification of TRPM4 mRNA by METTL3-YTHDF1 up-regulated its expression in CAVD. And TRPM4 promoted the level of inflammation via activation of the JNK-MAPK signaling pathway, after knockdown TRPM4, the production of proinflammatory cytokines was significantly suppressed. Conclusion The results indicate the pivotal role of TRPM4 in CAVD and highlight METTL3-mediated m6A modification of TRPM4 in promoting inflammation through JNK-MAPK signaling pathway. This work provides potential therapeutic strategy to impede inflammation in CAVD.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical 3 (TRPC3) protein belongs to the TRP family of nonselective cation channels. Its activation occurs by signaling through a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) and a phospholipase C-dependent (PLC) pathway. Perturbations in the expression of TRPC3 are associated with a plethora of pathophysiological conditions responsible for disorders of the cardiovascular, immune, and central nervous systems. The recently solved cryo-EM structure of TRPC3 provides detailed inputs about the underlying mechanistic aspects of the channel, which in turn enables more efficient ways of designing small-molecule modulators. Pharmacologically targeting TRPC3 in animal models has demonstrated great efficacy in treating diseases including cancers, neurological disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. Despite extensive scientific evidence supporting some strong correlations between the expression and activity of TRPC3 and various pathophysiological conditions, therapeutic strategies based on its pharmacological modulations have not led to clinical trials. The development of small-molecule TRPC3 modulators with high safety, sufficient brain penetration, and acceptable drug-like profiles remains in progress. Determining the pathological mechanisms for TRPC3 involvement in human diseases and understanding the requirements for a drug-like TRPC3 modulator will be valuable in advancing small-molecule therapeutics to future clinical trials. In this review, we provide an overview of the origin and activation mechanism of TRPC3 channels, diseases associated with irregularities in their expression, and new development in small-molecule modulators as potential therapeutic interventions for treating TRPC3 channelopathies.

Front Pharmacol 2024; 14:1340247. [PMID: 38269270 PMCID: PMC10806017 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1340247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Vascular endothelial injury is a contributing factor to the development of atherosclerosis and the resulting cardiovascular diseases. One particular factor involved in endothelial cell apoptosis and atherosclerosis is palmitic acid (PA), which is a long-chain saturated fatty acid. In addition, transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4), a non-selective cation channel, plays a significant role in endothelial dysfunction caused by various factors related to cardiovascular diseases. Despite this, the specific role and mechanisms of TRPM4 in atherosclerosis have not been fully understood. Methods: The protein and mRNA expressions of TRPM4, apoptosis - and inflammation-related factors were measured after PA treatment. The effect of TRPM4 knockout on the protein and mRNA expression of apoptosis and inflammation-related factors was detected. The changes of intracellular Ca2+, mitochondrial membrane potential, and reactive oxygen species were detected by Fluo-4 AM, JC-1, and DCFH-DA probes, respectively. To confirm the binding of miR-133a-3p to TRPM4, a dual luciferase reporter gene assay was conducted. Finally, the effects of miR-133a-3p and TRPM4 on intracellular Ca2+, mitochondrial membrane potential, and reactive oxygen species were examined. Results: Following PA treatment, the expression of TRPM4 increases, leading to calcium overload in endothelial cells. This calcium influx causes the assemblage of Bcl-2, resulting in the opening of mitochondrial calcium channels and mitochondrial damage, ultimately triggering apoptosis. Throughout this process, the mRNA and protein levels of IL-1β, ICAM-1, and VCAM1 significantly increase. Database screenings and luciferase assays have shown that miR-133a-3p preferentially binds to the 3'UTR region of TRPM4 mRNA, suppressing TRPM4 expression. During PA-induced endothelial injury, miR-133a-3p is significantly decreased, but overexpression of miR-133a-3p can attenuate the progression of endothelial injury. On the other hand, overexpression of TRPM4 counteracts the aforementioned changes. Conclusion: TRPM4 participates in vascular endothelial injury caused by PA. Therefore, targeting TRPM4 or miR-133a-3p may offer a novel pharmacological approach to preventing endothelial injury.

Identification of RNA reads encoding different channels in isolated rat ventricular myocytes and the effect of cell stretching on L-type Ca 2+current. Biol Direct 2023; 18:70. [PMID: 37899484 PMCID: PMC10614344 DOI: 10.1186/s13062-023-00427-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The study aimed to identify transcripts of specific ion channels in rat ventricular cardiomyocytes and determine their potential role in the regulation of ionic currents in response to mechanical stimulation. The gene expression levels of various ion channels in freshly isolated rat ventricular cardiomyocytes were investigated using the RNA-seq technique. We also measured changes in current through CaV1.2 channels under cell stretching using the whole-cell patch-clamp method. RESULTS Among channels that showed mechanosensitivity, significant amounts of TRPM7, TRPC1, and TRPM4 transcripts were found. We suppose that the recorded L-type Ca2+ current is probably expressed through CaV1.2. Furthermore, stretching cells by 6, 8, and 10 μm, which increases ISAC through the TRPM7, TRPC1, and TRPM4 channels, also decreased ICa,L through the CaV1.2 channels in K+ in/K+ out, Cs+ in/K+ out, K+ in/Cs+ out, and Cs+ in/Cs+ out solutions. The application of a nonspecific ISAC blocker, Gd3+, during cell stretching eliminated ISAC through nonselective cation channels and ICa,L through CaV1.2 channels. Since the response to Gd3+ was maintained in Cs+ in/Cs+ out solutions, we suggest that voltage-gated CaV1.2 channels in the ventricular myocytes of adult rats also exhibit mechanosensitive properties. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that TRPM7, TRPC1, and TRPM4 channels represent stretch-activated nonselective cation channels in rat ventricular myocytes. Probably the CaV1.2 channels in these cells exhibit mechanosensitive properties. Our results provide insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying stretch-induced responses in rat ventricular myocytes, which may have implications for understanding cardiac physiology and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Right ventricular failure (RVF) is the most important prognostic factor for morbidity and mortality in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or pulmonary hypertension (PH) caused by left heart diseases. However, right ventricle (RV) remodeling is understudied and not targeted by specific therapies. This can be partly explained by the lack of basic knowledge of RV remodeling. Since the physiology and hemodynamic function of the RV differ from those of the left ventricle (LV), the mechanisms of LV dysfunction cannot be generalized to that of the RV, albeit a knowledge of these being helpful to understanding RV remodeling and dysfunction. Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) has recently emerged to participate in the LV cardiomyocyte Ca2+ homeostasis and as a critical player in Ca2+ mishandling in a pathological context. In this paper, we highlight the current knowledge on the SOCE contribution to the LV and RV dysfunctions, as SOCE molecules are present in both compartments. he relative lack of studies on RV dysfunction indicates the necessity of further investigations, a significant challenge over the coming years.

Unraveling the Cardiac Effects Induced by Carvacrol in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats: Involvement of Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin Subfamily 4 and 7 Channels. J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2022; 79:206-216.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence indicates that transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are involved in the pathophysiological process in the heart, and monoterpenes, such as carvacrol, are able to modulate these channels activity. In this article, our purpose was to evaluate the direct cardiac effect of carvacrol on the contractility of cardiomyocytes and isolated right atria from spontaneously hypertensive and Wistar Kyoto rats. In this way, in vitro experiments were used to evaluate the ventricular cardiomyocytes contractility and the Ca2+ transient measuring, in addition to heart rhythm in the right atria. The role of TRPM channels in carvacrol-mediated cardiac activities was also investigated. The results demonstrated that carvacrol induced a significant reduction in ventricular cell contractility, without changes in transient Ca2+. In addition, carvacrol promoted a significant negative chronotropic response in spontaneously hypertensive and Wistar Kyoto rats' atria. Selective blockage of TRPM channels suggests the involvement of TRP melastatin subfamily 2 (TRPM2), TRPM4, and TRPM7 in the carvacrol-mediated cardiac effects. In silico studies were conducted to further investigate the putative role of TRPM4 in carvacrol-mediated cardiac action. FTMap underscores a conserved pocket in both TRPM4 and TRPM7, revealing a potential carvacrol binding site, and morphological similarity analysis demonstrated that carvacrol shares a more than 85% similarity to 9-phenanthrol. Taken together, these results suggest that carvacrol has direct cardiac actions, leading to reduced cellular contractility and inducing a negative chronotropic effect, which may be related to TRPM7 and TRPM4 modulation.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) is a unique member of the TRPM protein family and, similarly to TRPM5, is Ca2+ sensitive and permeable for monovalent but not divalent cations. It is widely expressed in many organs and is involved in several functions; it regulates membrane potential and Ca2+ homeostasis in both excitable and non-excitable cells. This part of the review discusses the currently available knowledge about the physiological and pathophysiological roles of TRPM4 in various tissues. These include the physiological functions of TRPM4 in the cells of the Langerhans islets of the pancreas, in various immune functions, in the regulation of vascular tone, in respiratory and other neuronal activities, in chemosensation, and in renal and cardiac physiology. TRPM4 contributes to pathological conditions such as overactive bladder, endothelial dysfunction, various types of malignant diseases and central nervous system conditions including stroke and injuries as well as in cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, hypertrophy, and ischemia-reperfusion injuries. TRPM4 claims more and more attention and is likely to be the topic of research in the future.

Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22179499. [PMID: 34502410 PMCID: PMC8430982 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22179499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2021] [Revised: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 08/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 4 (TRPM4) plays an important role in many tissues, including pacemaker and conductive tissues of the heart, but much less is known about its electrophysiological role in ventricular myocytes. Our earlier results showed the lack of selectivity of 9-phenanthrol, so CBA ((4-chloro-2-(2-chlorophenoxy)acetamido) benzoic acid) was chosen as a new, potentially selective inhibitor. Goal: Our aim was to elucidate the effect and selectivity of CBA in canine left ventricular cardiomyocytes and to study the expression of TRPM4 in the canine heart. Experiments were carried out in enzymatically isolated canine left ventricular cardiomyocytes. Ionic currents were recorded with an action potential (AP) voltage-clamp technique in whole-cell configuration at 37 °C. An amount of 10 mM BAPTA was used in the pipette solution to exclude the potential activation of TRPM4 channels. AP was recorded with conventional sharp microelectrodes. CBA was used in 10 µM concentrations. Expression of TRPM4 protein in the heart was studied by Western blot. TRPM4 protein was expressed in the wall of all four chambers of the canine heart as well as in samples prepared from isolated left ventricular cells. CBA induced an approximately 9% reduction in AP duration measured at 75% and 90% of repolarization and decreased the short-term variability of APD90. Moreover, AP amplitude was increased and the maximal rates of phase 0 and 1 were reduced by the drug. In AP clamp measurements, CBA-sensitive current contained a short, early outward and mainly a long, inward current. Transient outward potassium current (Ito) and late sodium current (INa,L) were reduced by approximately 20% and 47%, respectively, in the presence of CBA, while L-type calcium and inward rectifier potassium currents were not affected. These effects of CBA were largely reversible upon washout. Based on our results, the CBA induced reduction of phase-1 slope and the slight increase of AP amplitude could have been due to the inhibition of Ito. The tendency for AP shortening can be explained by the inhibition of inward currents seen in AP-clamp recordings during the plateau phase. This inward current reduced by CBA is possibly INa,L, therefore, CBA is not entirely selective for TRPM4 channels. As a consequence, similarly to 9-phenanthrol, it cannot be used to test the contribution of TRPM4 channels to cardiac electrophysiology in ventricular cells, or at least caution must be applied.

Cross-Talk between Mechanosensitive Ion Channels and Calcium Regulatory Proteins in Cardiovascular Health and Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22168782. [PMID: 34445487 PMCID: PMC8395829 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22168782] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2021] [Revised: 08/13/2021] [Accepted: 08/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Mechanosensitive ion channels are widely expressed in the cardiovascular system. They translate mechanical forces including shear stress and stretch into biological signals. The most prominent biological signal through which the cardiovascular physiological activity is initiated or maintained are intracellular calcium ions (Ca2+). Growing evidence show that the Ca2+ entry mediated by mechanosensitive ion channels is also precisely regulated by a variety of key proteins which are distributed in the cell membrane or endoplasmic reticulum. Recent studies have revealed that mechanosensitive ion channels can even physically interact with Ca2+ regulatory proteins and these interactions have wide implications for physiology and pathophysiology. Therefore, this paper reviews the cross-talk between mechanosensitive ion channels and some key Ca2+ regulatory proteins in the maintenance of calcium homeostasis and its relevance to cardiovascular health and disease.

Abstract
Ca2+ mishandling is a common feature in several cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure (HF). In many cases, impairment of key players in intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis has been identified as the underlying mechanism of cardiac dysfunction and cardiac arrhythmias associated with HF. In this review, we summarize primary novel findings related to Ca2+ mishandling in HF progression. HF research has increasingly focused on the identification of new targets and the contribution of their role in Ca2+ handling to the progression of the disease. Recent research studies have identified potential targets in three major emerging areas implicated in regulation of Ca2+ handling: the innate immune system, bone metabolism factors and post-translational modification of key proteins involved in regulation of Ca2+ handling. Here, we describe their possible contributions to the progression of HF.

Cardiac Gq Receptors and Calcineurin Activation Are Not Required for the Hypertrophic Response to Mechanical Left Ventricular Pressure Overload. Front Cell Dev Biol 2021; 9:639509. [PMID: 33659256 PMCID: PMC7917224 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2021.639509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2020] [Accepted: 01/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Rationale Gq-coupled receptors are thought to play a critical role in the induction of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) secondary to pressure overload, although mechano-sensitive channel activation by a variety of mechanisms has also been proposed, and the relative importance of calcineurin- and calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII)-dependent hypertrophic pathways remains controversial. Objective To determine the mechanisms regulating the induction of LVH in response to mechanical pressure overload. Methods and Results Transgenic mice with cardiac-targeted inhibition of Gq-coupled receptors (GqI mice) and their non-transgenic littermates (NTL) were subjected to neurohumoral stimulation (continuous, subcutaneous angiotensin II (AngII) infusion for 14 days) or mechanical pressure overload (transverse aortic arch constriction (TAC) for 21 days) to induce LVH. Candidate signaling pathway activation was examined. As expected, LVH observed in NTL mice with AngII infusion was attenuated in heterozygous (GqI+/-) mice and absent in homozygous (GqI-/-) mice. In contrast, LVH due to TAC was unaltered by either heterozygous or homozygous Gq inhibition. Gene expression of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and α-skeletal actin (α-SA) was increased 48 h after AngII infusion or TAC in NTL mice; in GqI mice, the increases in ANP, BNP and α-SA in response to AngII were completely absent, as expected, but all three increased after TAC. Increased nuclear translocation of nuclear factor of activated T-cells c4 (NFATc4), indicating calcineurin pathway activation, occurred in NTL mice with AngII infusion but not TAC, and was prevented in GqI mice infused with AngII. Nuclear and cytoplasmic CaMKIIδ levels increased in both NTL and GqI mice after TAC but not AngII infusion, with increased cytoplasmic phospho- and total histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) and increased nuclear myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) levels. Conclusion Cardiac Gq receptors and calcineurin activation are required for neurohumorally mediated LVH but not for LVH induced by mechanical pressure overload (TAC). Rather, TAC-induced LVH is associated with activation of the CaMKII-HDAC4-MEF2 pathway.

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Increases Susceptibility to Bupivacaine-induced Cardiotoxicity through Overexpression of Transient Receptor Potential Canonical Channels in Rats. Anesthesiology 2020; 133:1077-1092. [PMID: 32915958 DOI: 10.1097/aln.0000000000003554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Local anesthetics, particularly potent long acting ones such as bupivacaine, can cause cardiotoxicity by inhibiting sodium ion channels; however, the impact of left ventricular hypertrophy on the cardiotoxicity and the underlying mechanisms remain undetermined. Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are upregulated in left ventricular hypertrophy. Some transient receptor potential channel subtypes have been reported to pass relatively large cations, including protonated local anesthetics; this is known as the "pore phenomenon." The authors hypothesized that bupivacaine-induced cardiotoxicity is more severe in left ventricular hypertrophy due to upregulated TRPC channels. METHODS The authors used a modified transverse aortic constriction model as a left ventricular hypertrophy. Cardiotoxicity caused by bupivacaine was compared between sham and aortic constriction male rats, and the underlying mechanisms were investigated by recording sodium ion channel currents and immunocytochemistry of TRPC protein in cardiomyocytes. RESULTS The time to cardiac arrest by bupivacaine was shorter in aortic constriction rats (n =11) than in sham rats (n = 12) (mean ± SD, 1,302 ± 324 s vs. 1,034 ± 211 s; P = 0.030), regardless of its lower plasma concentration. The half-maximal inhibitory concentrations of bupivacaine toward sodium ion currents were 4.5 and 4.3 μM, which decreased to 3.9 and 2.6 μM in sham and aortic constriction rats, respectively, upon coapplication of 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol, a TRPC3 channel activator. In both groups, sodium ion currents were unaffected by QX-314, a positively charged lidocaine derivative, that hardly permeates the cell membrane, but was significantly decreased with QX-314 and 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol coapplication (sham: 79 ± 10% of control; P = 0.004; aortic constriction: 47± 27% of control; P = 0.020; n = 5 cells per group). Effects of 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol were antagonized by a specific TRPC3 channel inhibitor. CONCLUSIONS Left ventricular hypertrophy exacerbated bupivacaine-induced cardiotoxicity, which could be a consequence of the "pore phenomenon" of TRPC3 channels upregulated in left ventricular hypertrophy.

Transcriptional signatures regulated by TRPC1/C4-mediated Background Ca 2+ entry after pressure-overload induced cardiac remodelling. PROGRESS IN BIOPHYSICS AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2020; 159:86-104.

Abstract
AIMS After summarizing current concepts for the role of TRPC cation channels in cardiac cells and in processes triggered by mechanical stimuli arising e.g. during pressure overload, we analysed the role of TRPC1 and TRPC4 for background Ca2+ entry (BGCE) and for cardiac pressure overload induced transcriptional remodelling. METHODS AND RESULTS Mn2+-quench analysis in cardiomyocytes from several Trpc-deficient mice revealed that both TRPC1 and TRPC4 are required for BGCE. Electrically-evoked cell shortening of cardiomyocytes from TRPC1/C4-DKO mice was reduced, whereas parameters of cardiac contractility and relaxation assessed in vivo were unaltered. As pathological cardiac remodelling in mice depends on their genetic background, and the development of cardiac remodelling was found to be reduced in TRPC1/C4-DKO mice on a mixed genetic background, we studied TRPC1/C4-DKO mice on a C57BL6/N genetic background. Cardiac hypertrophy was reduced in those mice after chronic isoproterenol infusion (-51.4%) or after one week of transverse aortic constriction (TAC; -73.0%). This last manoeuvre was preceded by changes in the pressure overload induced transcriptional program as analysed by RNA sequencing. Genes encoding specific collagens, the Mef2 target myomaxin and the gene encoding the mechanosensitive channel Piezo2 were up-regulated after TAC in wild type but not in TRPC1/C4-DKO hearts. CONCLUSIONS Deletion of the TRPC1 and TRPC4 channel proteins protects against development of pathological cardiac hypertrophy independently of the genetic background. To determine if the TRPC1/C4-dependent changes in the pressure overload induced alterations in the transcriptional program causally contribute to cardio-protection needs to be elaborated in future studies.

Abstract
The heart is vital for biological function in almost all chordates, including humans. It beats continually throughout our life, supplying the body with oxygen and nutrients while removing waste products. If it stops, so does life. The heartbeat involves precise coordination of the activity of billions of individual cells, as well as their swift and well-coordinated adaption to changes in physiological demand. Much of the vital control of cardiac function occurs at the level of individual cardiac muscle cells, including acute beat-by-beat feedback from the local mechanical environment to electrical activity (as opposed to longer term changes in gene expression and functional or structural remodeling). This process is known as mechano-electric coupling (MEC). In the current review, we present evidence for, and implications of, MEC in health and disease in human; summarize our understanding of MEC effects gained from whole animal, organ, tissue, and cell studies; identify potential molecular mediators of MEC responses; and demonstrate the power of computational modeling in developing a more comprehensive understanding of ‟what makes the heart tick.ˮ.

Abstract
We have previously reported that the negative inotropic effects of hyperthermia (42 °C) on left ventricular (LV) mechanoenergetics using the excised, cross-circulated rat heart model. Here, we investigated the role of TRPV1 on LV mechanoenergetics in hyperthermia. We analyzed the LV end-systolic pressure–volume relation (ESPVR) and the linear relation between the myocardial oxygen consumption per beat (VO2) and the systolic pressure–volume area (PVA; a total mechanical energy per beat) during infusion of capsazepine (CPZ) in hyperthermia, or capsaicin (Cap) under 300 bpm pacing. LV ESP decreased in each LV volume and the resultant downward-shift of LV ESPVR was suppressed by CPZ infusion in hyperthermia-hearts. In Cap-treated hearts, LV ESPVR shifted downward from the control ESPVR, similar to hyperthermia-hearts. The slopes of VO2–PVA relationship were unchanged. The VO2 intercepts in hyperthermia-hearts did not decrease because of decreased E–C coupling VO2, and inversely increased basal metabolic VO2, which was suppressed by CPZ, though the VO2 intercepts in Cap-treated hearts significantly decreased. The levels of phosphorylated phospholamban at serine 16 decreased significantly in hyperthermia-hearts, as well as Cap-treated hearts. These results indicate that a Cap-induced decrease in the LV contractility, like in cases of hyperthermia, are due to the down-regulation of the total calcium handling in E–C coupling, suggesting that negative inotropic effect in hyperthermia-heart is, at least in part, mediated through TRPV1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1) protein is abundantly expressed in cardiomyocytes. While TRPC1 is supposed to be critically involved in cardiac hypertrophy, its physiological role in cardiomyocytes is poorly understood. We investigated the subcellular location of TRPC1 and its contribution to Ca2+ signaling in mammalian ventricular myocytes. Immunolabeling, three-dimensional scanning confocal microscopy and quantitative colocalization analysis revealed an abundant intracellular location of TRPC1 in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) and adult rabbit ventricular myocytes. TRPC1 was colocalized with intracellular proteins including sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2 in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Colocalization with wheat germ agglutinin, which labels the glycocalyx and thus marks the sarcolemma including the transverse tubular system, was low. Super-resolution and immunoelectron microscopy supported the intracellular location of TRPC1. We investigated Ca2+ signaling in NRVMs after adenoviral TRPC1 overexpression or silencing. In NRVMs bathed in Na+ and Ca2+ free solution, TRPC1 overexpression and silencing was associated with a decreased and increased SR Ca2+ content, respectively. In isolated rabbit cardiomyocytes bathed in Na+ and Ca2+ free solution, we found an increased decay of the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration [Ca2+]i and increased SR Ca2+ content in the presence of the TRPC channel blocker SKF-96365. In a computational model of rabbit ventricular myocytes at physiological pacing rates, Ca2+ leak through SR TRPC channels increased the systolic and diastolic [Ca2+]i with only minor effects on the action potential and SR Ca2+ content. Our studies suggest that TRPC1 channels are localized in the SR, and not present in the sarcolemma of ventricular myocytes. The studies provide evidence for a role of TRPC1 as a contributor to SR Ca2+ leak in cardiomyocytes, which was previously explained by ryanodine receptors only. We propose that the findings will guide us to an understanding of TRPC1 channels as modulators of [Ca2+]i and contractility in cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential cation channels are emerging as important physiological and therapeutic targets. Within the vanilloid subfamily, transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) and 4 (TRPV4) are osmo- and mechanosensors becoming critical determinants in cell structure and activity. However, knowledge is scarce regarding how TRPV2 and TRPV4 are trafficked to the plasma membrane or specific organelles to undergo quality controls through processes such as biosynthesis, anterograde/retrograde trafficking, and recycling. This review lists and reviews a subset of protein–protein interactions from the TRPV2 and TRPV4 interactomes, which is related to trafficking processes such as lipid metabolism, phosphoinositide signaling, vesicle-mediated transport, and synaptic-related exocytosis. Identifying the protein and lipid players involved in trafficking will improve the knowledge on how these stretch-related channels reach specific cellular compartments.

Front Pharmacol 2019; 10:1198. [PMID: 31680972 PMCID: PMC6804401 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2019.01198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2019] [Accepted: 09/17/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Targeted delivery of therapeutic compounds to particular cell types such that they only affect the target cells is of great clinical importance since it can minimize undesired side effects. For example, typical chemotherapeutic treatments used in the treatment of neoplastic disorders are cytotoxic not only to cancer cells but also to most normal cells when exposed to a critical concentration of the compound. As such, many chemotherapeutics exhibit severe side effects, often prohibiting their effective use in the treatment of cancer. Here, we describe a new means for facilitated delivery of a clinically used chemotherapy compound' doxorubicin, into hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (BNL1 ME). We demonstrate that these cells express a large pore, cation non-selective transient receptor potential (TRP) channel V2. We utilized this channel to shuttle doxorubicin into BNL1 ME cells. We show that co-application of either cannabidiol (CBD) or 2-APB, the activators of TRPV2 channels, together with doxorubicin leads to significantly higher accumulation of doxorubicin in BNL1 ME cells than in BNL1 ME cells that were exposed to doxorubicin alone. Moreover, we demonstrate that sub-effective doses of doxorubicin when co-applied with either 2-APB or CBD lead to a significant decrease in the number of living BNL1 ME cell and BNL1 ME cell colonies in comparison to application of doxorubicin alone. Finally, we demonstrate that the doxorubicin-mediated cell death is significantly more potent, requiring an order of magnitude lower dose, when co-applied with CBD than with 2-APB. We suggest that CBD may have a dual effect in promoting doxorubicin-mediated cell death by facilitating the entry of doxorubicin via TRPV2 channels and preventing its clearance from the cells by inhibiting P-glycoprotein ATPase transporter. Collectively, these results provide a foundation for the use of large pore cation-non selective channels as “natural” drug delivery systems for targeting specific cell types.

Abstract
Atria-selective antiarrhythmic drugs in need of alliance partners. Guideline-based treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) comprises prevention of thromboembolism and stroke, as well as antiarrhythmic therapy by drugs, electrical rhythm conversion, ablation and surgical procedures. Conventional antiarrhythmic drugs are burdened with unwanted side effects including a propensity of triggering life-threatening ventricular fibrillation. In order to solve this therapeutic dilemma, 'atria-selective' antiarrhythmic drugs have been developed for the treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias. These drugs are designed to aim at atrial targets, taking advantage of differences in atrial and ventricular ion channel expression and function. However it is not clear, whether such drugs are sufficiently antiarrhythmic or whether they are in need of an alliance partner for clinical efficacy. Atria-selective Na+ channel blockers display fast dissociation kinetics and high binding affinity to inactivated channels. Compounds targeting atria-selective K+ channels include blockers of ultra rapid delayed rectifier (Kv1.5) or acetylcholine-activated inward rectifier K+ channels (Kir3.x), inward rectifying K+ channels (Kir2.x), Ca2+-activated K+ channels of small conductance (SK), weakly rectifying two-pore domain K+ channels (K2P), and transient receptor potential channels (TRP). Despite good antiarrhythmic data from in-vitro and animal model experiments, clinical efficacy of atria-selective antiarrhythmic drugs remains to be demonstrated. In the present review we will briefly summarize the novel compounds and their proposed antiarrhythmic action. In addition, we will discuss the evidence for putative improvement of antiarrhythmic efficacy and potency by addressing multiple pathophysiologically relevant targets as possible alliance partners.

Abstract
The burden of chronic diseases, which include both cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), is constantly growing worldwide. Moreover, bidirectional links between kidney and heart disorders are commonly recognized and the pathogenesis of these interactions is a matter of current interest in medicine. One remarkable aspect, extensively showed by epidemiological studies, is the very high prevalence of CVD in patients with CKD, up to thirty times higher than in the general population. Since the traditional cardiovascular risk factors cannot solely account for this difference, numerous abnormalities due to the decline in glomerular filtration rate were hypothesized to be involved as non-traditional risk factors for CVD. Among them, the metabolic acidosis frequently seen in advanced CKD was studied, but conflicting results were reported. Therefore, we intend to briefly summarize the current knowledge and points of controversy regarding the possible influence of CKD-related chronic metabolic acidosis on cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Ion channels are transmembrane proteins that mediate ion transport across biological membranes. Ion channel function is traditionally characterized by electrical parameters acquired with techniques such as patch-clamping and reconstitution in lipid bilayer membranes (BLM) that provide relevant information such as ionic conductance, selectivity, and gating properties. High resolution structural information of ion channels however, requires independent technologies, of which atomic force microscopy (AFM) is the only one that provides topological features of single functional channel proteins in their native environments. To date practically no data exist on direct correlations between electrical features and topological parameters from functional single channel complexes. Here, we report the design and construction of a BLM reconstitution microchamber that supports the simultaneous recording of electrical currents and AFM imaging from single channel complexes. As proof-of-principle, we tested the technique on polycystin-2 (PC2, TRPP2), a TRP channel family member from which we had previously elucidated its tetrameric topology by AFM imaging, and single channel currents by the BLM technique. The experimental setup provided direct structural-functional correlates from PC2 single channel complexes that disclosed novel topological changes between the closed and open sub-conductance states of the functional channel, namely, an inverse correlation between conductance and height of the channel. Unexpectedly, we also disclosed intrinsic PC2 mechanosensitivity in response to external forces. The platform provides a suitable means of accessing topological information to correlate with ion channel electrical parameters essential to understand the physiology of these transmembrane proteins.

PTPN6 regulates the cell-surface expression of TRPM4 channels in HEK293 cells. Pflugers Arch 2018; 470:1449-1458.

Abstract
Transient receptor-potential, cation channel, subfamily M, member 4 (TRPM4) channels regulate a variety of physiological and pathological processes; however, their roles as functional channels under diverse conditions remain unclear. In this study, cytosolic protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 6 (PTPN6) interacted with TRPM4 channels. We confirmed their interaction by performing co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays following heterologous PTPN6 and TRPM4 channel expression in HEK293 cells. Furthermore, biomolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) image analysis confirmed TRPM4-PTPN6 binding. In addition, immunoblotting and Co-IP analyses revealed that TRPM4 expression significantly decreased in the membrane fraction of cells after PTPN6 was silenced with a specific short-hairpin RNA (shRNA-PTPN6). In agreement, TRPM4-induced changes in whole-cell currents were not detected in PTPN6-silenced HEK cells, in contrast to cells transfected with a scrambled RNA (scRNA) or in naïve HEK cells. These data suggest that PTPN6 inhibits TRPM4 channel activity by disrupting TRPM4 expression. Furthermore, TRPM4 channels were expressed in the membrane of naïve cells and scRNA transfectants, but not in those of PTPN6-silenced cells. These results indicated that PTPN6 is critically associated with TRPM4 trafficking. This role of PTPN6 in TRPM4 membrane localization was also demonstrated in HeLa cells. TRPM4 overexpression significantly enhanced cell proliferation in untreated HeLa cells, but not in HeLa cells with silenced PTPN6 expression. These findings indicate that PTPN6-dependent TRPM4 expression and trafficking to the plasma membrane is critical for cell proliferation in both HEK293 and HeLa cells. Therefore, PTPN6 is a novel therapeutic target for treating pathologic diseases involving TRPM4.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 4 (TRPM4) channel influences calcium homeostasis during many physiological activities such as insulin secretion, immune response, respiratory reaction, and cerebral vasoconstriction. This calcium-activated, monovalent, selective cation channel also plays a key role in cardiovascular pathophysiology; for example, a mutation in the TRPM4 channel leads to cardiac conduction disease. Recently, it has been suggested that the TRPM4 channel is also involved in the development of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, which causes myocardial infarction. In the present review, we discuss the physiological function of the TRPM4 channel, and assess its role in cardiovascular pathophysiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Right ventricular (RV) function is the most important prognostic factor for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients. The progressive increase of pulmonary vascular resistance induces RV hypertrophy (RVH) and at term RV failure (RVF). However, the molecular mechanisms of RVH and RVF remain understudied. In this study, we gained insights into cytosolic Ca2+ signaling remodeling in ventricular cardiomyocytes during the pathogenesis of severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) induced in rats by monocrotaline (MCT) exposure, and we further identified molecular candidates responsible for this Ca2+ remodeling. METHODS AND RESULTS After PH induction, hypertrophied RV myocytes presented longer action potential duration, higher and faster [Ca2+]i transients and increased sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ content, whereas no changes in these parameters were detected in left ventricular (LV) myocytes. These modifications were associated with increased P-Ser16-phospholamban pentamer expression without altering SERCA2a (Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+-ATPase) pump abundance. Moreover, after PH induction, Ca2+ sparks frequency were higher in hypertrophied RV cells, while total RyR2 (Ryanodine Receptor) expression and phosphorylation were unaffected. Together with cellular hypertrophy, the T-tubules network was disorganized. Hypertrophied RV cardiomyocytes from MCT-exposed rats showed decreased expression of classical STIM1 (Stromal Interaction molecule) associated with increased expression of muscle-specific STIM1 Long isoform, glycosylated-Orai1 channel form, and TRPC1 and TRPC4 channels, which was correlated with an enhanced Ca2+-release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC)-like current. Pharmacological inhibition of TRPCs/Orai1 channels in hypertrophied RV cardiomyocytes normalized [Ca2+]i transients amplitude, the SR Ca2+ content and cell contractility to control levels. Finally, we showed that most of these changes did not appear in LV cardiomyocytes. CONCLUSIONS These new findings demonstrate RV-specific cellular Ca2+ cycling remodeling in PH rats with maladaptive RVH and that the STIM1L/Orai1/TRPC1/C4-dependent Ca2+ current participates in this Ca2+ remodeling in RVH secondary to PH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In vivo experiments in Goto-Kakizaki (GK) type 2 diabetic rats have demonstrated reductions in heart rate from a young age. The expression of genes encoding more than 70 proteins that are associated with the generation and conduction of electrical activity in the GK sinoatrial node (SAN) have been evaluated to further clarify the molecular basis of the low heart rate. MATERIALS AND METHODS Heart rate and expression of genes were evaluated with an extracellular electrode and real-time RT-PCR, respectively. Rats aged 12-13 months were employed in these experiments. RESULTS Isolated spontaneous heart rate was reduced in GK heart (161 ± 12 bpm) compared to controls (229 ± 11 bpm). There were many differences in expression of mRNA, and some of these differences were of particular interest. Compared to control SAN, expression of some genes were downregulated in GK-SAN: gap junction, Gja1 (Cx43), Gja5 (Cx40), Gjc1 (Cx45), and Gjd3 (Cx31.9); cell membrane transport, Trpc1 (TRPC1) and Trpc6 (TRPC6); hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated channels, Hcn1 (HCN1) and Hcn4 (HCN4); calcium channels, Cacna1d (Cav1.3), Cacna1g (Cav3.1), Cacna1h (Cav3.2), Cacna2d1 (Cavα2δ1), Cacna2d3 (Cavα2δ3), and Cacng4 (Cav γ 4); and potassium channels, Kcna2 (Kv1.2), Kcna4 (Kv1.4), Kcna5 (Kv1.5), Kcnb1 (Kv2.1), Kcnd3 (Kv4.3), Kcnj2 (Kir2.1), Kcnk1 (TWIK1), Kcnk5 (K2P5.1), Kcnk6 (TWIK2), and Kcnn2 (SK2) whilst others were upregulated in GK-SAN: Ryr2 (RYR2) and Nppb (BNP). CONCLUSIONS This study provides new insight into the changing expression of genes in the sinoatrial node of diabetic heart.

Abstract
Prolonged action potential duration, reduced action potential firing rate, upstroke velocity and rate of diastolic depolarization have been demonstrated in atrioventricular node (AVN) cells from streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. To further clarify the molecular basis of these electrical disturbances, the mRNA profiles encoding a variety of proteins associated with the generation and conduction of electrical activity in the AVN, were evaluated in the STZ-induced diabetic rat heart. Expression of mRNA was measured in AVN biopsies using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction techniques. Notable differences in mRNA expression included upregulation of genes encoding membrane and intracellular Ca2+ transport, including solute carrier family 8 member A1, transient receptor potential channel 1, ryanodine receptor 2/3, hyperpolarization-activated cyclic-nucleotide 2 and 3, calcium channel voltage-dependent, β2 subunit and sodium channels 3a, 4a, 7a and 3b. In addition to this, potassium channels potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 4, potassium channel calcium activated intermediate/small conductance subfamily N α member 2, potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily J members 3, 5, and 11, potassium channel subfamily K members 1, 2, 3 and natriuretic peptide B (BNP) were upregulated in AVN of STZ heart, compared with controls. Alterations in gene expression were associated with upregulation of various proteins including the inwardly rectifying, potassium channel Kir3.4, NCX1 and BNP. The present study demonstrated notable differences in the profile of mRNA encoding proteins associated with the generation, conduction and regulation of electrical signals in the AVN of the STZ-induced diabetic rat heart. These data will provide a basis for a substantial range of future studies to investigate whether variations in mRNA translate into alterations in electrophysiological function.

Endoglin selectively modulates transient receptor potential channel expression in left and right heart failure. Cardiovasc Pathol 2016; 25:478-482. [PMID: 27614169 PMCID: PMC5443561 DOI: 10.1016/j.carpath.2016.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2016] [Revised: 08/04/2016] [Accepted: 08/18/2016] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are broadly expressed cation channels that mediate diverse physiological stimuli and include canonical (TRPC), melastatin (TRPM), and vanilloid (TRPV) subtypes. Recent studies have implicated a role for TRPC6 channels as an important component of signaling via the cytokine, transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) in right (RV) or left ventricular (LV) failure. Endoglin (Eng) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that promotes TRPC6 expression and TGFβ1 activity. No studies have defined biventricular expression of all TRP channel family members in heart failure. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesized that heart failure is associated with distinct patterns of TRP channel expression in the LV and RV. METHODS Paired viable LV and RV free wall tissue was obtained from human subjects with end-stage heart failure (n=12) referred for cardiac transplantation or biventricular assist device implantation. Paired LV and RV samples from human subjects without heart failure served as controls (n=3). To explore a functional role for Eng as a regulator of TRP expression in response to RV or LV pressure overload, wild-type (Eng+/+) and Eng haploinsufficient (Eng+/-) mice were exposed to thoracic aortic (TAC) or pulmonary arterial (PAC) constriction for 8weeks. Biventricular tissue was analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Compared to nonfailing human LV and RV samples, mRNA levels of TRPC1, 3, 4, 6, and TRPV-2 were increased and TRPM2, 3, and 8 were decreased in failing LV and RV samples. TRPC1 and 6 levels were higher in failing RV compared to failing LV samples. After TAC, murine LV levels of TPRC1 and 6 were increased in both Eng+/+ and Eng+/- mice compared to sham controls. LV levels of TRPC4, TRPM3 and 7, TRPV2 and 4 were increased in Eng+/+, not in Eng+/- mice after TAC. After PAC, all TRP channel family members were increased in the RV, but not LV, of Eng+/+ compared to sham controls. In contrast to Eng+/+, PAC did not increase RV or LV levels of TRP channels in Eng+/- mice. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to demonstrate that TRP channels exhibit distinct profiles of expression in the LV and RV of patients with heart failure and in murine models of univentricular pressure overload. We further introduce that the TGFβ1 coreceptor Eng selectively regulates expression of multiple TRP channels in the setting of LV or RV pressure overload.

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
Mechanical forces will have been omnipresent since the origin of life, and living organisms have evolved mechanisms to sense, interpret, and respond to mechanical stimuli. The cardiovascular system in general, and the heart in particular, is exposed to constantly changing mechanical signals, including stretch, compression, bending, and shear. The heart adjusts its performance to the mechanical environment, modifying electrical, mechanical, metabolic, and structural properties over a range of time scales. Many of the underlying regulatory processes are encoded intracardially and are, thus, maintained even in heart transplant recipients. Although mechanosensitivity of heart rhythm has been described in the medical literature for over a century, its molecular mechanisms are incompletely understood. Thanks to modern biophysical and molecular technologies, the roles of mechanical forces in cardiac biology are being explored in more detail, and detailed mechanisms of mechanotransduction have started to emerge. Mechano-gated ion channels are cardiac mechanoreceptors. They give rise to mechano-electric feedback, thought to contribute to normal function, disease development, and, potentially, therapeutic interventions. In this review, we focus on acute mechanical effects on cardiac electrophysiology, explore molecular candidates underlying observed responses, and discuss their pharmaceutical regulation. From this, we identify open research questions and highlight emerging technologies that may help in addressing them.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) has emerged as an important mechanism in cardiac pathology. However, the signals that up-regulate SOCE in the heart remain unexplored. Clinical trials have emphasized the beneficial role of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) signaling blockade in heart failure and associated arrhythmias. Accumulated evidence suggests that the mineralocorticoid hormone aldosterone, through activation of its receptor, MR, might be a key regulator of Ca(2+) influx in cardiomyocytes. We thus assessed whether and how SOCE involving transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) and Orai1 channels are regulated by aldosterone/MR in neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes. Molecular screening using qRT-PCR and Western blotting demonstrated that aldosterone treatment for 24 h specifically increased the mRNA and/or protein levels of Orai1, TRPC1, -C4, -C5, and stromal interaction molecule 1 through MR activation. These effects were correlated with a specific enhancement of SOCE activities sensitive to store-operated channel inhibitors (SKF-96365 and BTP2) and to a potent Orai1 blocker (S66) and were prevented by TRPC1, -C4, and Orai1 dominant negative mutants or TRPC5 siRNA. A mechanistic approach showed that up-regulation of serum- and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1 mRNA expression by aldosterone is involved in enhanced SOCE. Functionally, 24-h aldosterone-enhanced SOCE is associated with increased diastolic [Ca(2+)]i, which is blunted by store-operated channel inhibitors. Our study provides the first evidence that aldosterone promotes TRPC1-, -C4-, -C5-, and Orai1-mediated SOCE in cardiomyocytes through an MR and serum- and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1 pathway.

Abstract
Background Experiments in isolated perfused heart have shown that heart rate is lower and sinoatrial node (SAN) action potential duration is longer in streptozotocin (STZ)–induced diabetic rat compared to controls. In sino-atrial preparations the pacemaker cycle length and sino-atrial conduction time are prolonged in STZ heart. To further clarify the molecular basis of electrical disturbances in the diabetic heart the profile of mRNA encoding a wide variety of proteins associated with the generation and transmission of electrical activity has been evaluated in the SAN of STZ-induced diabetic rat heart. Methodology/Principal Findings Heart rate was measured in isolated perfused heart with an extracellular suction electrode. Expression of mRNA encoding a variety of intercellular proteins, intracellular Ca2+-transport and regulatory proteins, cell membrane transport proteins and calcium, sodium and potassium channel proteins were measured in SAN and right atrial (RA) biopsies using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction techniques. Heart rate was lower in STZ (203±7 bpm) compared to control (239±11 bpm) rat. Among many differences in the profile of mRNA there are some worthy of particular emphasis. Expression of genes encoding some proteins were significantly downregulated in STZ-SAN: calcium channel, Cacng4 (7-fold); potassium channel, Kcnd2 whilst genes encoding some other proteins were significantly upregulated in STZ-SAN: gap junction, Gjc1; cell membrane transport, Slc8a1, Trpc1, Trpc6 (4-fold); intracellular Ca2+-transport, Ryr3; calcium channel Cacna1g, Cacna1h, Cacnb3; potassium channels, Kcnj5, Kcnk3 and natriuretic peptides, Nppa (5-fold) and Nppb (7-fold). Conclusions/Significance Collectively, this study has demonstrated differences in the profile of mRNA encoding a variety of proteins that are associated with the generation, conduction and regulation of electrical signals in the SAN of STZ-induced diabetic rat heart. Data from this study will provide a basis for a substantial range of future studies to investigate whether these changes in mRNA translate into changes in electrophysiological function.

Abstract
In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), deficiency of the cytoskeletal protein dystrophin leads to well-described defects in skeletal muscle but also to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). In cardiac cells, the subsarcolemmal localization of dystrophin is thought to protect the membrane from mechanical stress. The dystrophin deficiency leads to membrane instability and a high stress-induced Ca(2+) influx due to dysregulation of sarcolemmal channels such as stretch-activated channels (SACs). In this work divalent cation entry has been explored in isolated ventricular Wild Type (WT) and mdx cardiomyocytes in two different conditions: at rest and during the application of an axial stretch. At rest, our results suggest that activation of TRPV2 channels participates to a constitutive basal cation entry in mdx cardiomyocytes.Using microcarbon fibres technique, an axial stretchwas applied to mimic effects of physiological conditions of ventricular filling and study on cation influx bythe Mn(2+)-quenching techniquedemonstrated a high stretch-dependentcationic influx in dystrophic cells, partially due to SACs. Involvement of TRPs channels in this excessive Ca(2+) influx has been investigated using specific modulators and demonstratedboth sarcolemmal localization and an abnormal activity of TRPV2 channels. In conclusion, TRPV2 channels are demonstrated here to play a key role in cation influx and dysregulation in dystrophin deficient cardiomyocytes, enhanced in stretching conditions.

Abstract
AIM In this study, we aimed to investigate whether changes in cerebrovascular voltage-dependent calcium channels and non-selective cation channels contribute to the enhanced endothelin-1-mediated vasoconstriction in the delayed hypoperfusion phase after experimental transient forebrain ischaemia. METHODS Experimental forebrain ischaemia was induced in Wistar male rats by a two-vessel occlusion model, and the cerebral blood flow was measured by magnetic resonance imaging two days after reperfusion. In vitro vasoreactivity studies, immunofluorescence and quantitative PCR were performed on cerebral arteries from ischaemic or sham-operated rats to evaluate changes in vascular voltage-dependent calcium channels, transient receptor potential canonical channels as well as endothelin-1 receptor function and expression. RESULTS The expression of transient receptor potential canonical channels 1 and 6 in the vascular smooth muscle cells was enhanced and correlated with decreased cerebral blood flow two days after forebrain ischaemia. Furthermore, under conditions when voltage-dependent calcium channels were inhibited, endothelin-1-induced cerebrovascular contraction was enhanced and this enhancement was presumably mediated by Ca(2+) influx via upregulated transient receptor potential canonical channels 1 and 6. CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrates that endothelin-1-mediated influx of extracellular Ca(2+) activates transient receptor potential canonical channels 1 and 6 in cerebral vascular smooth muscle cells. This seems to have an important role in the enhanced cerebral vasoconstriction in the delayed post-ischaemic hypoperfusion phase after experimental forebrain ischaemia.

Abstract
Endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells of resistance arteries mediate opposing responses to mechanical forces acting on the vasculature, promoting dilation in response to flow and constriction in response to pressure, respectively. In this review, we explore the role of TRP channels, particularly endothelial TRPV4 and smooth muscle TRPC6 and TRPM4 channels, in vascular mechanosensing circuits, placing their putative mechanosensitivity in context with other proposed upstream and downstream signaling pathways.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily consists of a large number of nonselective cation channels with variable degree of Ca(2+)-permeability. The 28 mammalian TRP channel proteins can be grouped into six subfamilies: canonical, vanilloid, melastatin, ankyrin, polycystic, and mucolipin TRPs. The majority of these TRP channels are expressed in different cell types including both excitable and nonexcitable cells of the cardiovascular system. Unlike voltage-gated ion channels, TRP channels do not have a typical voltage sensor, but instead can sense a variety of other stimuli including pressure, shear stress, mechanical stretch, oxidative stress, lipid environment alterations, hypertrophic signals, and inflammation products. By integrating multiple stimuli and transducing their activity to downstream cellular signal pathways via Ca(2+) entry and/or membrane depolarization, TRP channels play an essential role in regulating fundamental cell functions such as contraction, relaxation, proliferation, differentiation, and cell death. With the use of targeted deletion and transgenic mouse models, recent studies have revealed that TRP channels are involved in numerous cellular functions and play an important role in the pathophysiology of many diseases in the cardiovascular system. Moreover, several TRP channels are involved in inherited diseases of the cardiovascular system. This review presents an overview of current knowledge concerning the physiological functions of TRP channels in the cardiovascular system and their contributions to cardiovascular diseases. Ultimately, TRP channels may become potential therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy requires a source of Ca(2+) distinct from the Ca(2+) that regulates contraction. The canonical transient receptor potential channel (TrpC) family, a family of cation channels regulated by activation of phospholipase C (PLC), has been implicated in this response. Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy downstream of Gq-coupled receptors is mediated specifically by PLCβ1b that is scaffolded onto a SH3 and ankyrin repeat protein 3 (Shank3) complex at the sarcolemma. TrpC4 exists as two splice variants (TrpC4α and TrpC4β) that differ only in an 84-residue sequence that binds to phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate (PIP2), the substrate of PLCβ1b. In neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, TrpC4α, but not TrpC4β, coimmunoprecipitated with both PLCβ1b and Shank3. Heightened PLCβ1b expression caused TrpC4α, but not TrpC4β, translocation to the sarcolemma, where it colocalized with PLCβ1b. When overexpressed in cardiomyocytes, TrpC4α, but not TrpC4β, increased cell area (893 ± 18 to 1497 ± 29 mm(2), P < 0.01) and marker gene expression (atrial natriuretic peptide increased by 409 ± 32%, and modulatory calcineurin inhibitory protein 1 by 315 ± 28%, P < 0.01). Dominant-negative TrpC4 reduced hypertrophy initiated by PLCβ1b, or PLCβ1b-coupled receptor activation, by 72 ± 8% and 39 ± 5 %, respectively. We conclude that TrpC4α is selectively involved in mechanisms downstream of PLCβ1b culminating in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, and that the hypertrophic response is dependent on the TrpC4α splice variant-specific sequence that binds to PIP2.

Abstract
Growing evidence indicates that transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels play important roles in various Ca(2+)-mediated physiological and pathophysiological processes, including development. Many types of TRPC proteins are expressed in the heart. However, limited data are available comparing the expression and localization among TRPC proteins in the ventricular myocyte at various developmental stages. Our purpose is to investigate the expression and localization profile of TRPC proteins in ventricular myocytes of fetal (18.5 days), neonatal (< 24 h after birth) and adult (8 week old) rats. Western blotting, immunofluorescence and confocal laser scanning microscopy were employed. TRPC1/3-6 proteins were expressed in the rat ventricle throughout the three developmental stages. The expression profile of TRPC1/3/4 in the ventricle followed an upward trend from the fetus to the adult. By contrast, TRPC6 in the ventricle was expressed at the highest level in the fetal group and was sharply down-regulated immediately after birth. TRPC5 expression in the ventricle did not change significantly during the three stages. TRPC1/3/5/6 proteins were localized to the T-tubule and TRPC1/3/4/6 to intercalated disks in adult myocytes. The wide spatiotemporal overlap and dynamic regulation of TRPC expression in ventricular myocytes indicates potential complex combinations and redundancy of native TRPC proteins in the heart and gives important clues for further investigations into the exact subunit compositions and functional properties of native TRPC channels in the heart.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels are nonselective, calcium-permeable cation channels that are expressed in a great variety of organisms, tissues, and cell types. TRPC channels are known to be involved in the transduction of polymodal sensory input. Additionally, they are implicated in a variety of developmental processes. Distinct gating mechanisms have been elucidated so far, but their exact functional role in vertebrate organisms still needs to be resolved. RESULTS We now used the teleost Danio rerio to perform a comprehensive expression analysis of the trpc gene subfamily. Based on the sequence homology to the seven described mammalian TRPC channels, we identified 12 trpc genes in the zebrafish genome. All but trpc1 and trpc3 are represented by two paralogs. We further describe the specific expression patterns of trpc transcripts in whole-mounts during the first 5 days of development. CONCLUSIONS Consistent with their proposed role in sensory transduction zebrafish trpcs are predominantly expressed in neural structures such as the olfactory, visual, mechanosensitive, and motor systems. Intriguingly, zebrafish paralogs show mainly nonoverlapping expression patterns, suggesting that duplicated genes have either split their functions or have adapted new ones.

Abstract
Lead optimization of piperidine amide HTS hits, based on an anilino-thiazole core, led to the identification of analogs which displayed low nanomolar blocking activity at the canonical transient receptor channels 3 and 6 (TRPC3 & 6) based on FLIPR (carbachol stimulated) and electrophysiology (OAG stimulated) assays. In addition, the anilino-thiazole amides displayed good selectivity over other TRP channels (TRPA1, TRPV1, and TRPV4), as well as against cardiac ion channels (CaV1.2, hERG, and NaV1.5). The high oxidation potential of the aliphatic piperidine and aniline groups, as well as the lability of the thiazole amide group contributed to the high clearance observed for this class of compounds. Conversion of an isoquinoline amide to a naphthyridine amide markedly reduced clearance for the bicyclic piperidines, and improved oral bioavailability for this compound series, however TRPC3 and TRPC6 blocking activity was reduced substantially. Although the most potent anilino-thiazole amides ultimately lacked oral exposure in rodents and were not suitable for chronic dosing, analogs such as 14-19, 22, and 23 are potentially valuable in vitro tool compounds for investigating the role of TRPC3 and TRPC6 in cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Mechanosensitivity is essential for heart function just as for all other cells and organs in the body, and it is involved in both normal physiology and diseases processes of the cardiovascular system. In this review, we have outlined the relationship between mechanosensitivity and heart physiology, including the Frank-Starling law of the heart and mechanoelectric feedback. We then focused on molecules involved in mechanotransduction, particularly mechanosensitive ion channels. We have also discussed the involvement of mechanosensitivity in heart diseases, such as arrhythmias, hypertrophy and ischaemic heart disease. Finally, mechanobiology in cardiogenesis is described with regard to regenerative medicine.

Abstract
One of the most important functions of the kidney is the filtration of the blood that takes place in the glomeruli. Glomerular epithelial cells (podocytes) have several functions, including regulation of the filtration process and glomerular basement membrane turnover. Dysfunction of podocytes is a major cause of glomerular kidney diseases. Gain-of-function mutations in the TRPC6 channel underlie a subset of familial forms of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). While growing evidence supports an important role of TRPC channels in podocytes, the regulation of these channels has yet to be investigated in freshly isolated glomeruli. Native settings in glomeruli provide, by all means, the most appropriate as well as one of the most challenging environments to study ion channel regulation. Thus, it is important to develop new methods that would better reflect the native settings of the podocytes. To address this question, we have established an experimental approach that allows studying podocytes in the freshly isolated decapsulated intact glomeruli. Here we describe the preparation of the rat glomeruli for patch-clamping, focusing on special conditions required for single-channel analysis of TRPC channels. Several tricks useful for cell-attached patch-clamping of the glomerular podocytes and solutions appropriate for registration of the TRPC channels are also provided.

Abstract
The central goal of this overview article is to summarize recent findings in renal epithelial transport,focusing chiefly on the connecting tubule (CNT) and the cortical collecting duct (CCD).Mammalian CCD and CNT are involved in fine-tuning of electrolyte and fluid balance through reabsorption and secretion. Specific transporters and channels mediate vectorial movements of water and solutes in these segments. Although only a small percent of the glomerular filtrate reaches the CNT and CCD, these segments are critical for water and electrolyte homeostasis since several hormones, for example, aldosterone and arginine vasopressin, exert their main effects in these nephron sites. Importantly, hormones regulate the function of the entire nephron and kidney by affecting channels and transporters in the CNT and CCD. Knowledge about the physiological and pathophysiological regulation of transport in the CNT and CCD and particular roles of specific channels/transporters has increased tremendously over the last two decades.Recent studies shed new light on several key questions concerning the regulation of renal transport.Precise distribution patterns of transport proteins in the CCD and CNT will be reviewed, and their physiological roles and mechanisms mediating ion transport in these segments will also be covered. Special emphasis will be given to pathophysiological conditions appearing as a result of abnormalities in renal transport in the CNT and CCD.
