Abstract
Gliomas are the most common type of primary brain tumor. Despite advances in treatment, it remains one of the most aggressive and deadly tumor of the central nervous system (CNS). Gliomas are characterized by high malignancy, heterogeneity, invasiveness, and high resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. It is urgent to find potential new molecular targets for glioma. The TRPM channels consist of TRPM1-TPRM8 and play a role in many cellular functions, including proliferation, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, etc. More and more studies have shown that TRPM channels can be used as new therapeutic targets for glioma. In this review, we first introduce the structure, activation patterns, and physiological functions of TRPM channels. Additionally, the pathological mechanism of glioma mediated by TRPM2, 3, 7, and 8 and the related signaling pathways are described. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic potential of targeting TRPM for glioma.

Abstract
Articular cartilage damage and chondrocyte apoptosis are among the distinguishing features of osteoarthritis. (R)-N-(benzimidazol-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphtylamine (NS8593) is a transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 7 (TRPM7) channel inhibitor and was initially considered a potent inhibitor of small-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels(SK1-3 or KCa2.1-2.3 channels). Since SK is one of the targets for atrial fibrillation therapy, several studies have been conducted using NS8593 and it has been shown to be effective in improving atrial fibrillation in rats, dogs and horses. Recently, inhibition of TRPM7 has been reported to alleviate articular cartilage destruction. However, the role and mechanism of NS8593 on articular chondrocyte damage is unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of NS8593 on sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-induced chondrocyte apoptosis in vitro. The results showed that SNP decreased cell viability and induced chondrocyte apoptosis. NS8593 dose-dependently inhibited the SNP-induced decrease in cell viability and reduced chondrocyte apoptosis. In addition, SNP stimulation significantly increased the phosphorylation level of the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING), and NS8593 treatment partially reversed the alteration of STING phosphorylation level. Treatment with the STING inhibitor H-151 inhibited SNP-induced chondrocyte apoptosis. These results suggest that NS8593 may inhibit SNP-induced chondrocyte apoptosis by suppressing the STING signaling pathway.

Rajan S, Shalygin A, Gudermann T, Chubanov V, Dietrich A. TRPM2 channels are essential for regulation of cytokine production in lung interstitial macrophages. J Cell Physiol 2024. [PMID: 38785126 DOI: 10.1002/jcp.31322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Interstitial macrophages (IMs) are essential for organ homeostasis, inflammation, and autonomous immune response in lung tissues, which are achieved through polarization to a pro-inflammatory M1 and an M2 state for tissue repair. Their remote parenchymal localization and low counts, however, are limiting factors for their isolation and molecular characterization of their specific role during tissue inflammation. We isolated viable murine IMs in sufficient quantities by coculturing them with stromal cells and analyzed mRNA expression patterns of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in naïve and M1 polarized IMs after application of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon γ. M-RNAs for the second member of the melastatin family of TRP channels, TRPM2, were upregulated in the M1 state and functional channels were identified by their characteristic currents induced by ADP-ribose, its specific activator. Most interestingly, cytokine production and secretion of interleukin-1α (IL-1α), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α in M1 polarized but TRPM2-deficient IMs was significantly enhanced compared to WT cells. Activation of TRPM2 channels by ADP-ribose (ADPR) released from mitochondria by ROS-produced H2O2 significantly increases plasma membrane depolarization, which inhibits production of reactive oxygen species by NADPH oxidases and reduces cytokine production and secretion in a negative feedback loop. Therefore, TRPM2 channels are essential for the regulation of cytokine production in M1-polarized murine IMs. Specific activation of these channels may promote an anti-inflammatory phenotype and prevent a harmful cytokine storm often observed in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
Ion channels, in particular transient-receptor potential (TRP) channels, are essential genes that play important roles in many physiological processes. Emerging evidence has demonstrated that TRP genes are involved in a number of diseases, including various cancer types. However, we still lack knowledge about the expression alterations landscape of TRP genes across cancer types. In this review, we comprehensively reviewed and summarised the transcriptomes from more than 10 000 samples in 33 cancer types. We found that TRP genes were widespreadly transcriptomic dysregulated in cancer, which was associated with clinical survival of cancer patients. Perturbations of TRP genes were associated with a number of cancer pathways across cancer types. Moreover, we reviewed the functions of TRP family gene alterations in a number of diseases reported in recent studies. Taken together, our study comprehensively reviewed TRP genes with extensive transcriptomic alterations and their functions will directly contribute to cancer therapy and precision medicine.

Abstract
Trace elements are cofactors in various enzymes in the antioxidant defense and cell homeostasis required in the tissue during inflammation. In acute kidney injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), renal cells are affected by cytotoxicity. Renal evacuation and gastrointestinal absorption rates are important in regulating plasma levels of trace elements. Simvastatin is a widely used anti-lipidemic drug with known anti-inflammatory effects. This study aimed to examine the effect of simvastatin on trace elements and electrolyte levels in kidney tissue in rats with LPS-induced sepsis. Adult male Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups: control, LPS (20 mg/kg, i.p., single dose), simvastatin (20 mg/kg, o.p., 5 days), and LPS + Simvastatin (LPS + Sim). Sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, selenium, zinc, copper, and histological structural changes were examined in kidney tissue samples 4 h after LPS execution. The inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy technique (ICP-OES) was used to determine the tissue trace element levels. In rats with sepsis-induced LPS, selenium, calcium, sodium, and magnesium levels significantly decreased while copper, potassium, and zinc levels significantly increased compared to other experimental groups. In sepsis treated with the simvastatin (LPS + Simvastatin) group, trace elements and electrolyte levels are like the control groups, apart from selenium levels. Selenium levels were significantly decreased in the LPS + Simvastatin group compared to the controls. As a result of examining the kidney tissues under a light microscope, simvastatin improved tissue damage caused by LPS-induced acute kidney injury. LPS-induced renal injury and simvastatin caused significant changes in the oxidant/antioxidant system. In septic rats, simvastatin was shown to balance some trace element levels, and it may improve damage in the kidney tissue.

Abstract
Regenerating bone tissue in critical-sized craniofacial bone defects remains challenging and requires the implementation of innovative bone implants with early stage osteogenesis and blood vessel formation. Vitamin D3 is incorporated into MgO-doped 3D-printed scaffolds for defect-specific and patient-specific implants in low load-bearing areas. This novel bone implant also promotes early stage osteogenesis and blood vessel development. Our results show that vitamin D3-loaded MgO-doped 3D-printed scaffolds enhance osteoblast cell proliferation 1.3-fold after being cultured for 7 days. Coculture studies on osteoblasts derived from human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and osteoclasts derived from monocytes show the upregulation of genes related to osteoblastogenesis and the downregulation of RANK-L, which is essential for osteoclastogenesis. Release of vitamin D3 also inhibits osteoclast differentiation by 1.9-fold after a 21-day culture. After 6 weeks, vitamin D3 release from MgO-doped 3D-printed scaffolds enhances the new bone formation, mineralization, and angiogenic potential. The multifunctional 3D-printed scaffolds can improve early stage osteogenesis and blood vessel formation in craniofacial bone defects.

Abstract
Different cell channels and transporters tightly regulate cytoplasmic levels and the intraorganelle distribution of cations. Perturbations in these processes lead to human diseases that are frequently associated with kidney impairment. The family of melastatin-related transient receptor potential (TRPM) channels, which has eight members in mammals (TRPM1-TRPM8), includes ion channels that are highly permeable to divalent cations, such as Ca2+, Mg2+ and Zn2+ (TRPM1, TRPM3, TRPM6 and TRPM7), non-selective cation channels (TRPM2 and TRPM8) and monovalent cation-selective channels (TRPM4 and TRPM5). Three family members contain an enzymatic protein moiety: TRPM6 and TRPM7 are fused to α-kinase domains, whereas TRPM2 is linked to an ADP-ribose-binding NUDT9 homology domain. TRPM channels also function as crucial cellular sensors involved in many physiological processes, including mineral homeostasis, blood pressure, cardiac rhythm and immunity, as well as photoreception, taste reception and thermoreception. TRPM channels are abundantly expressed in the kidney. Mutations in TRPM genes cause several inherited human diseases, and preclinical studies in animal models of human disease have highlighted TRPM channels as promising new therapeutic targets. Here, we provide an overview of this rapidly evolving research area and delineate the emerging role of TRPM channels in kidney pathophysiology.

Abstract
Metal ions exert pivotal functions within the human body, encompassing essential roles in upholding cell structure, gene expression regulation, and catalytic enzyme activity. Additionally, they significantly influence various pathways implicated in divergent mechanisms of cell death. Among the prevailing malignant tumors of the digestive tract worldwide, gastric cancer stands prominent, exhibiting persistent high mortality rates. A compelling body of evidence reveals conspicuous ion irregularities in tumor tissues, encompassing gastric cancer. Notably, metal ions have been observed to elicit distinct contributions to the progression, drug resistance, and biological attributes of gastric cancer. This review consolidates pertinent literature on the involvement of metal ions in the etiology and advancement of gastric cancer. Particular attention is directed towards metal ions, namely, Na, K, Mg, Ca, Fe, Cu, Zn, and Mn, elucidating their roles in the initiation and progression of gastric cancer, cellular demise processes, drug resistance phenomena, and therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
After spinal cord injury (SCI), secondary injuries including blood cells infiltration followed by the production of inflammatory mediators are led by blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) breakdown. Therefore, preventing BSCB damage could alleviate the secondary injury progresses after SCI. Recently, we reported that transient receptor potential melastatin 7 channel (TRPM7) expression is increased in vascular endothelial cells after injury and thereby mediates BSCB disruption. However, the mechanism by which TRPM7 regulates BSCB disruption has not been examined yet. In current research, we show that TRPM7 mediates BSCB disruption via mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway after SCI in rats. After contusion injury at T9 level of spinal cord, mTOR pathway was activated in the endothelial cells of blood vessels and TRPM7 was involved in the activation of mTOR pathway. BSCB disruption, MMP-2/9 activation, and blood cell infiltration after injury were alleviated by rapamycin, a mTOR signaling inhibitor. Rapamycin also conserved the level of tight junction proteins, which were decreased after SCI. Furthermore, mTOR pathway regulated the expression and activation of histone H3K27 demethylase JMJD3, known as a key epigenetic regulator mediating BSCB damage after SCI. In addition, rapamycin inhibited JMJD3 expression, the loss of tight junction molecules, and MMP-2/9 expression in bEnd.3, a brain endothelial cell line, after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation. Thus, our results suggest that TRPM7 contributes to the BSCB disruption by regulating JMJD3 expression through the mTOR pathway after SCI.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS), with its high prevalence and significant impact on cardiovascular disease, poses a substantial threat to human health. The early identification of pathological abnormalities related to MetS and prevention of the risk of associated diseases is of paramount importance. Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels, a type of nonselective cation channel, are expressed in a variety of tissues and have been implicated in the onset and progression of numerous metabolism-related diseases. This study aims to review and discuss the expression and function of TRP channels in metabolism-related tissues and blood vessels, and to elucidate the interactions and mechanisms between TRP channels and metabolism-related diseases. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using keywords such as TRP channels, metabolic syndrome, pancreas, liver, oxidative stress, diabetes, hypertension, and atherosclerosis across various academic databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, Elsevier, Web of Science, and CNKI. Our review of the current research suggests that TRP channels may be involved in the development of metabolism-related diseases by regulating insulin secretion and release, lipid metabolism, vascular functional activity, oxidative stress, and inflammatory response. TRP channels, as nonselective cation channels, play pivotal roles in sensing various intra- and extracellular stimuli and regulating ion homeostasis by osmosis. They present potential new targets for the diagnosis or treatment of metabolism-related diseases.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction: Extracellular histones have been determined as significant mediators of sepsis, which can induce endothelial cell injury and promote coagulation activation, and ultimately contribute to multiorgan failure. Evidence suggests that magnesium sulfate (MgSO 4 ) exerts a potential coagulation-modulating activity; however, whether MgSO 4 ameliorates histone-induced coagulation dysfunction and organ damage remains unclear. Methods: To measure circulating histone levels, blood specimens were collected from septic patients and mice, and the relationship between circulating histone levels, coagulation parameters, and Mg 2+ levels in sepsis was investigated. Furthermore, to explore the possible protective effects of MgSO 4 , we established a histone-induced coagulation model in mice by intravenous histone injection. The survival rate of mice was assessed, and the histopathological damage of the lungs (including endothelial cell injury and coagulation status) was evaluated using various methods, including hematoxylin and eosin staining, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, electron microscopy, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results: The circulating histone levels in septic patients and mice were significantly associated with several coagulation parameters. In septic patients, histone levels correlated negatively with platelet counts and positively with prothrombin time and D-dimer levels. Similarly, in cecal ligation and puncture mice, histones correlated negatively with platelet counts and positively with D-dimer levels. Interestingly, we also observed a positive link between histones and Mg 2+ levels, suggesting that Mg 2+ with anticoagulant activity is involved in histone-mediated coagulation alterations in sepsis. Further animal experiments confirmed that MgSO 4 administration significantly improved survival and attenuated histone-mediated endothelial cell injury, coagulation dysfunction, and lung damage in mice. Conclusion: These results suggest that therapeutic targeting of histone-mediated endothelial cell injury, coagulation dysfunction, and lung damage, for example, with MgSO 4 , may be protective in septic individuals with elevated circulating histone levels.

Abstract
Background To explore the mechanism of OIP5-AS1/CD147/TRPM7 axis to gastric cancer (GC) metastasis. Methods Bioinformatic analysis was performed to pick up the candidate genes associated with regulation GC metastasis. Using GC cell lines, AGS and MKN-45 as research objects, identify the effect of candidate genes on GC metastasis, judge cell proliferation status by MTT assay and cell clone number, and detect cell migration by Transwell and Wound-healing assay. The molecular mechanism of CD147/OIP5/TRPM7 axis regulating GC metastasis was further explored by RNA sequencing. The key signaling pathways were subsequently verified by flow cytometry and WB. Results Bioinformatic analysis suggested OIP5-AS1/CD147/TRPM7 axis may be involving in GC metastasis. The RNA interference experiment proved that after gene interference, the proliferation ability of GC cells decreased significantly (P<0.05), which was manifested in the reduction of the number of cell clones. In addition, the migration ability of GC cells was also affected, which was based on the results of Wound Healing (P<0.05). CD147, OIP5-AS1 and TRPM7 all have harmful effects on GC cells. The relationship between OIP5-AS1 and CD147/TRPM7 was detected by RNA immunoprecipitation. Moreover, the RNA sequencing data indicated that CD147/OIP5-AS1/TRPM7 may coordinately regulate the PI3K-AKT pathway related to GC cell apoptosis, thereby affecting the proliferation and migration of GC cells. After RNA interference, the level of apoptosis increased both in AGS and MKN-45 cells. Meanwhile, the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Caspase9 and BAX were up-regulated (P<0.05). In addition, the expression of PI3K and AKT proteins was reduced (P<0.05). The mouse tumorigenesis experiment corroborated the results of the in vitro study. Conclusion OIP5-AS1/CD147/TRPM7 axis reduces GC cell proliferation by regulating apoptosis associated with PI3K-AKT signaling, further affecting cancer metastasis.

Abstract
Technological advances and methodological innovations in cell signaling pathway analysis will facilitate progress in understanding biological processes, intervening in diseases, and screening drugs. In this work, an elaborate strategy for visualizing and monitoring the transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7)-Mg2+ signaling pathway in living cells was constructed through the logical analysis of upstream mRNA and downstream molecules by two individual DNA sensors. The DNA sensors are constructed by modifying the dye-labeled DNA sequences on the surface of gold nanoparticles. By hybridizing with upstream mRNA, Cy5-modified DNA sensor 1 can detect and silence it simultaneously, outputting a red fluorescence signal. When the upstream mRNA is silenced, the concentration of downstream molecules of Mg2+ will be affected and down-regulated. The FAM-modified DNA sensor 2 detects this change and emits a green fluorescence as a signal. Therefore, the dynamic information on TRPM7 mRNA and the Mg2+-mediated signaling pathway can be successfully obtained by fluorescence imaging methods. Furthermore, the TRPM7 mRNA-Mg2+ signaling pathway also affects cell activity and migratory function through cell scratching and other experiments. More importantly, the proposed sensor also shows potential for screening signaling pathway inhibitors. Our work provides a simple and general strategy for the visualization of signaling pathways, which helps to understand the changes in the physiological activities of cancer cells and the causes of carcinogenesis and is crucial for cancer diagnosis and prognosis.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential (TRP) channel superfamily is a group of nonselective cation channels that function as cellular sensors for a wide range of physical, chemical, and environmental stimuli. According to sequence homology, TRP channels are categorized into 6 subfamilies: TRP canonical, TRP vanilloid, TRP melastatin, TRP ankyrin, TRP mucolipin, and TRP polycystin. They are widely expressed in different cell types and tissues and have essential roles in various physiological and pathological processes by regulating the concentration of ions (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, and K+) and influencing intracellular signalling pathways. Human data and experimental models indicate the importance of TRP channels in vascular homeostasis and hypertension. Furthermore, TRP channels have emerged as key players in oxidative stress and inflammation, important in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension. In this review, we present an overview of the TRP channels with a focus on their role in hypertension. In particular, we highlight mechanisms activated by TRP channels in vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells and discuss their contribution to processes underlying vascular dysfunction in hypertension.

Abstract
Ischemia is the main cause of cell death in retinal diseases such as vascular occlusions, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, or retinopathy of prematurity. Although excitotoxicity is considered the primary mechanism of cell death during an ischemic event, antagonists of glutamatergic receptors have been unsuccessful in clinical trials with patients suffering ischemia or stroke. Our main purpose was to analyze if the transient receptor potential channel 7 (TRPM7) could contribute to retinal dysfunction in retinal pathologies associated with ischemia. By using an experimental model of acute retinal ischemia, we analyzed the changes in retinal function by electroretinography and the changes in retinal morphology by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT-angiography (OCTA). Immunohistochemistry was performed to assess the pattern of TRPM7 and its expression level in the retina. Our results show that ischemia elicited a decrease in retinal responsiveness to light stimuli along with reactive gliosis and a significant increase in the expression of TRPM7 in Müller cells. TRPM7 could emerge as a new drug target to be explored in retinal pathologies associated with ischemia.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin (TRPM) channels, a subfamily of the TRP superfamily, constitute a diverse group of ion channels involved in mediating crucial cellular processes like calcium homeostasis. These channels exhibit complex regulation, and one of the key regulatory mechanisms involves their interaction with calmodulin (CaM), a cytosol ubiquitous calcium-binding protein. The association between TRPM channels and CaM relies on the presence of specific CaM-binding domains in the channel structure. Upon CaM binding, the channel undergoes direct and/or allosteric structural changes and triggers down- or up-stream signaling pathways. According to current knowledge, ion channel members TRPM2, TRPM3, TRPM4, and TRPM6 are directly modulated by CaM, resulting in their activation or inhibition. This review specifically focuses on the interplay between TRPM channels and CaM and summarizes the current known effects of CaM interactions and modulations on TRPM channels in cellular physiology.

Abstract
Cells are known to perceive their microenvironment through extracellular and intracellular mechanical signals. Upon sensing mechanical stimuli, cells can initiate various downstream signaling pathways that are vital to regulating proliferation, growth, and homeostasis. One such physiologic activity modulated by mechanical stimuli is osteogenic differentiation. The process of osteogenic mechanotransduction is regulated by numerous calcium ion channels-including channels coupled to cilia, mechanosensitive and voltage-sensitive channels, and channels associated with the endoplasmic reticulum. Evidence suggests these channels are implicated in osteogenic pathways such as the YAP/TAZ and canonical Wnt pathways. This review aims to describe the involvement of calcium channels in regulating osteogenic differentiation in response to mechanical loading and characterize the fashion in which those channels directly or indirectly mediate this process. The mechanotransduction pathway is a promising target for the development of regenerative materials for clinical applications due to its independence from exogenous growth factor supplementation. As such, also described are examples of osteogenic biomaterial strategies that involve the discussed calcium ion channels, calcium-dependent cellular structures, or calcium ion-regulating cellular features. Understanding the distinct ways calcium channels and signaling regulate these processes may uncover potential targets for advancing biomaterials with regenerative osteogenic capabilities.

Abstract
Cells adjust growth and metabolism to nutrient availability. Having access to a variety of carbon sources during infection of their animal hosts, facultative intracellular pathogens must efficiently prioritize carbon utilization. Here, we discuss how carbon source controls bacterial virulence, with an emphasis on Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, which causes gastroenteritis in immunocompetent humans and a typhoid-like disease in mice, and propose that virulence factors can regulate carbon source prioritization by modifying cellular physiology. On the one hand, bacterial regulators of carbon metabolism control virulence programs, indicating that pathogenic traits appear in response to carbon source availability. On the other hand, signals controlling virulence regulators may impact carbon source utilization, suggesting that stimuli that bacterial pathogens experience within the host can directly impinge on carbon source prioritization. In addition, pathogen-triggered intestinal inflammation can disrupt the gut microbiota and thus the availability of carbon sources. By coordinating virulence factors with carbon utilization determinants, pathogens adopt metabolic pathways that may not be the most energy efficient because such pathways promote resistance to antimicrobial agents and also because host-imposed deprivation of specific nutrients may hinder the operation of certain pathways. We propose that metabolic prioritization by bacteria underlies the pathogenic outcome of an infection.

Abstract
Cancer cells proliferate, differentiate and migrate by repurposing physiological signalling mechanisms. In particular, altered calcium signalling is emerging as one of the most widespread adaptations in cancer cells. Remodelling of calcium signalling promotes the development of several malignancies, including prostate cancer. Gene expression data from in vitro, in vivo and bioinformatics studies using patient samples and xenografts have shown considerable changes in the expression of various components of the calcium signalling toolkit during the development of prostate cancer. Moreover, preclinical and clinical evidence suggests that altered calcium signalling is a crucial component of the molecular re-programming that drives prostate cancer progression. Evidence points to calcium signalling re-modelling, commonly involving crosstalk between calcium and other cellular signalling pathways, underpinning the onset and temporal progression of this disease. Discrete alterations in calcium signalling have been implicated in hormone-sensitive, castration-resistant and aggressive variant forms of prostate cancer. Hence, modulation of calcium signals and downstream effector molecules is a plausible therapeutic strategy for both early and late stages of prostate cancer. Based on this premise, clinical trials have been undertaken to establish the feasibility of targeting calcium signalling specifically for prostate cancer.

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

Biomolecules 2023; 13:1039. [PMID: 37509075 PMCID: PMC10377690 DOI: 10.3390/biom13071039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a disabling multisystemic condition. The pathomechanism of ME/CFS remains unestablished; however, impaired natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity is a consistent feature of this condition. Calcium (Ca2+) is crucial for NK cell effector functions. Growing research recognises Ca2+ signalling dysregulation in ME/CFS patients and implicates transient receptor potential ion channel dysfunction. TRPM7 (melastatin) was recently considered in the pathoaetiology of ME/CFS as it participates in several Ca2+-dependent processes that are central to NK cell cytotoxicity which may be compromised in ME/CFS. TRPM7-dependent Ca2+ influx was assessed in NK cells isolated from n = 9 ME/CFS patients and n = 9 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs) using live cell fluorescent imaging techniques. Slope (p < 0.05) was significantly reduced in ME/CFS patients compared with HCs following TRPM7 activation. Half-time of maximal response (p < 0.05) and amplitude (p < 0.001) were significantly reduced in the HCs compared with the ME/CFS patients following TRPM7 desensitisation. Findings from this investigation suggest that TRPM7-dependent Ca2+ influx is reduced with agonism and increased with antagonism in ME/CFS patients relative to the age- and sex-matched HCs. The outcomes reported here potentially reflect TRPM3 dysfunction identified in this condition suggesting that ME/CFS is a TRP ion channelopathy.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate the magnesium content in human cirrhotic liver and its correlation with serum AST levels, expression of hepatocellular injury, and MELDNa prognostic score. In liver biopsies obtained at liver transplantation, we measured the magnesium content in liver tissue in 27 cirrhotic patients (CIRs) and 16 deceased donors with healthy liver (CTRLs) by atomic absorption spectrometry and within hepatocytes of 15 CIRs using synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence microscopy. In 31 CIRs and 10 CTRLs, we evaluated the immunohistochemical expression in hepatocytes of the transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7), a magnesium influx chanzyme also involved in inflammation. CIRs showed a lower hepatic magnesium content (117.2 (IQR 110.5-132.9) vs. 162.8 (IQR 155.9-169.8) μg/g; p < 0.001) and a higher percentage of TRPM7 positive hepatocytes (53.0 (IQR 36.8-62.0) vs. 20.7 (10.7-32.8)%; p < 0.001) than CTRLs. In CIRs, MELDNa and serum AST at transplant correlated: (a) inversely with the magnesium content both in liver tissue and hepatocytes; and (b) directly with the percentage of hepatocytes stained intensely for TRPM7. The latter also directly correlated with the worsening of MELDNa at transplant compared to waitlisting. Magnesium depletion and overexpression of its influx chanzyme TRPM7 in hepatocytes are associated with severity of hepatocyte injury and prognosis in cirrhosis. These data represent the pathophysiological basis for a possible beneficial effect of magnesium supplementation in cirrhotic patients.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7), a non-selective cation channel, was significantly upregulated in the blood of patients with sepsis. This study focuses on the preliminary exploration of the probable regulatory mechanism of TRPM7 in sepsis-induced myocardial injury (SIMI). HL-1 cardiac muscle cell line was treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to mimic SIMI in vitro, and TRPM7 level was assessed. The impacts of TRPM7 knockdown on cellular inflammation response, oxidative stress, apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and ferroptosis were identified. In order to explore the mechanism, ER stress agonist tunicamycin (TM) or ferroptosis inducer erastin was applied to treat HL-1 cells. The influences of TM and erastin on the aforementioned aspects were evaluated. TRPM7 was elevated in response to LPS stimulation, and its knockdown reduced the secretion of inflammatory factors and oxidative stress degree. Moreover, TRPM7 knockdown significantly suppressed cell apoptosis, ER stress, and ferroptosis. TM and erastin reversed the functions of TRPM7 knockdown, indicating ER stress and ferroptosis mediated in the regulation of TRPM7. This research proposes the possibility of TRPM7 as a marker or target for SIMI, and provides theoretical support for follow-up research.

Abstract
Efficient coordination between Mg2+ and vitamin D maintains adequate Ca2+ levels during lactation. This study explored the possible interaction between Mg2+ (0.3, 0.8, and 3 mM) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25D; 0.05 and 5 nM) during osteogenesis using bovine mesenchymal stem cells. After 21 days, differentiated osteocytes were subjected to OsteoImage analysis, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity measurements, and immunocytochemistry of NT5E, ENG (endoglin), SP7 (osterix), SPP1 (osteopontin), and the BGLAP gene product osteocalcin. The mRNA expression of NT5E, THY1, ENG, SP7, BGLAP, CYP24A1, VDR, SLC41A1, SLC41A2, SLC41A3, TRPM6, TRPM7, and NIPA1 was also assessed. Reducing the Mg2+ concentration in the medium increased the accumulation of mineral hydroxyapatite and ALP activity. There was no change in the immunocytochemical localization of stem cell markers. Expression of CYP24A1 was higher in all groups receiving 5 nM 1,25D. There were tendencies for higher mRNA abundance of THY1, BGLAP, and NIPA1 in cells receiving 0.3 mM Mg2+ and 5 nM 1,25D. In conclusion, low levels of Mg2+ greatly enhanced the deposition of bone hydroxyapatite matrix. The effect of Mg2+ was not modulated by 1,25D, although the expression of certain genes (including BGLAP) tended to be increased by the combination of low Mg2+ and high 1,25D concentrations.

Abstract
The human papilloma virus (HPV) group comprises approximately 200 genetic types that have a special affinity for epithelial tissues and can vary from producing benign symptoms to developing into complicated pathologies, such as cancer. The HPV replicative cycle affects various cellular and molecular processes, including DNA insertions and methylation and relevant pathways related to pRb and p53, as well as ion channel expression or function. Ion channels are responsible for the flow of ions across cell membranes and play very important roles in human physiology, including the regulation of ion homeostasis, electrical excitability, and cell signaling. However, when ion channel function or expression is altered, the channels can trigger a wide range of channelopathies, including cancer. In consequence, the up- or down-regulation of ion channels in cancer makes them attractive molecular markers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of the disease. Interestingly, the activity or expression of several ion channels is dysregulated in HPV-associated cancers. Here, we review the status of ion channels and their regulation in HPV-associated cancers and discuss the potential molecular mechanisms involved. Understanding the dynamics of ion channels in these cancers should help to improve early diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment in the benefit of HPV-associated cancer patients.

Abstract
Magnesium deficiency is associated with a greater risk of developing cardiovascular diseases since this cation is fundamental in regulating vascular function. This clinical evidence is sustained by in vitro studies showing that culturing endothelial cells in low concentrations of magnesium promotes the acquisition of a pro-oxidant and pro-inflammatory phenotype. Here, we show that the increase in reactive oxygen species in endothelial cells in low-magnesium-containing medium is due to the upregulation of the pro-oxidant protein thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP), with a consequent accumulation of lipid droplets and increase in endothelial permeability through the downregulation and relocalization of junctional proteins. Silencing TXNIP restores the endothelial barrier and lipid content. Because (i) mitochondria serve multiple roles in shaping cell function, health and survival and (ii) mitochondria are the main intracellular stores of magnesium, it is of note that no significant alterations were detected in their morphology and dynamics in our experimental model. We conclude that TXNIP upregulation contributes to low-magnesium-induced endothelial dysfunction in vitro.

Abstract
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are a class of membrane spanning cell-surface receptors that transmit extracellular signals through the membrane to trigger diverse intracellular signaling through tyrosine kinases (TKs), and play important role in cancer development. Therapeutic approaches targeting RTKs such as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), and TKs, such as c-Src, ABL, JAK, are widely used to treat human cancers. Despite favorable benefits in cancer treatment that prolong survival, these tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and monoclonal antibodies targeting RTKs are also accompanied by adverse effects, including cardiovascular toxicity. Mechanisms underlying TKI-induced cardiovascular toxicity remain unclear. The transient receptor potential melastatin-subfamily member 7 (TRPM7) is a ubiquitously expressed chanzyme consisting of a membrane-based ion channel and intracellular α-kinase. TRPM7 is a cation channel that regulates transmembrane Mg2+ and Ca2+ and is involved in a variety of (patho)physiological processes in the cardiovascular system, contributing to hypertension, cardiac fibrosis, inflammation, and atrial arrhythmias. Of importance, we and others demonstrated significant cross-talk between TRPM7, RTKs, and TK signaling in different cell types including vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), which might be a link between TKIs and their cardiovascular effects. In this review, we summarize the implications of RTK inhibitors (RTKIs) and TKIs in cardiovascular toxicities during anti-cancer treatment, with a focus on the potential role of TRPM7/Mg2+ as a mediator of RTKI/TKI-induced cardiovascular toxicity. We also describe the important role of TRPM7 in cancer development and cardiovascular diseases, and the interaction between TRPM7 and RTKs, providing insights for possible mechanisms underlying cardiovascular disease in cancer patients treated with RTKI/TKIs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To investigate the protective effect of sevoflurane preconditioning on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (renalischemiareperfusionmodel, RIRI) and its related mechanism. METHODS Eighty healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into control group (Sham group), model group (RIRI group), sevoflurane pretreatment group (Sev group) and TRPM7 inhibitor combined with sevoflurane pretreatment group (T + Sev group), 20 animals in each group. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes of renal tissue, and the levels of creatinine and urea nitrogen in each group were detected. Deoxyribonucleic acid terminal transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay was used to detect renal cell apoptosis, and Western blottingwas used to detect the expression of apoptotic proteins cleaved-caspase-3, bax, Bcl-2, and TRPM7 in renal tissue; Detection of oxidative stress-related index levels in renal tissue and levels of inflammatory factors in renal tissue and serum. RESULTS Compared with the Sham group, the renal tissue pathological damage was aggravated, the levels of creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were increased, and the apoptosis was increased in the RIR group and the Sev group. Death, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and inflammatory factors were increased, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels were decreased (all p < .05); The scores, apoptosis rate, MDA level, and relative expression of inflammatory factor levels were decreased, and SOD levels were increased (all p < .05). Compared with the Sev group, the renal tissue pathological damage in the T + Sev group was aggravated, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen levels increased, apoptosis increased, apoptosis-related proteins cleaved-caspase-3, bax, Bcl-2 showed increased apoptosis, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, inflammatory factor levels increased, ultrahigh The levels of oxide dismutase (SOD) were decreased (all p < .05). CONCLUSIONS Therefore, we believe that sevoflurane is involved in the protection of rat renal ischemia-reperfusion injury by downregulating the expression of TRPM7.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) is involved in the regulation of metabolism and in the maintenance of the homeostasis of all the tissues, including the brain, where it harmonizes nerve signal transmission and preserves the integrity of the blood-brain barrier. Mg deficiency contributes to systemic low-grade inflammation, the common denominator of most diseases. In particular, neuroinflammation is the hallmark of neurodegenerative disorders. Starting from a rapid overview on the role of magnesium in the brain, this narrative review provides evidences linking the derangement of magnesium balance with multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Biological hydroxyapatite (BHA)-based bone grafting materials have been widely used for bone regeneration in implant surgery. Much effort has been made in the improvement of their osteogenic property as it remains unsatisfactory for clinical use. Osteoimmunomodulation plays a significant role in bone regeneration, which is highly related to active inorganic ions. Therefore, attempts have been made to obtain osteoimmunomodulatory BHA-based bone grafting materials with optimized osteogenic property by ion doping. OBJECTIVE: To summarize and discuss the active inorganic ions doped into BHA and their effects on BHA-based bone grafting materials. METHOD: A literature search was performed in databases including Google Scholar, Web of Science and PubMed, with the elementary keywords of “ion doped” and “biological hydroxyapatite”, as well as several supplementary keywords. All document types were included in this search. The searching period and language were not limited and kept updated to 2022. RESULTS: A total of 32 articles were finally included, of which 32 discussed the physiochemical properties of BHA-based biomaterials, while 12 investigated their biological features in vitro, and only three examined their biological performance in vivo. Various ions were doped into BHA, including fluoride, zinc, magnesium and lithium. Such ions improved the biological performance of BHA-based biomaterials, which was attributed to their osteoimmunomodulatory effect. CONCLUSION: The doping of active inorganic ions is a reliable strategy to endow BHA-based biomaterials with osteoimmunomodulatory property and promote bone regeneration. Further studies are still in need to explore more ions and their effects in the crosstalk between the skeletal and immune systems.

Abstract
Intracellular calcium (Ca2+) concentration ([Ca2+]i) is implicated in proliferation, invasion, and metastasis in cancerous tissues. A variety of oncologic therapies and some candidate drugs induce their antitumor effects (in part or in whole) through the modulation of [Ca2+]i. Cervical cancer is one of most common cancers among women worldwide. Recently, major research advances relating to the Ca2+ signals in cervical cancer are emerging. In this review, we comprehensively describe the current progress concerning the roles of Ca2+ signals in the occurrence, development, and prognosis of cervical cancer. It will enhance our understanding of the causative mechanism of Ca2+ signals in cervical cancer and thus provide new sights for identifying potential therapeutic targets for drug discovery.

Promoter methylation of transient receptor potential melastatin-related 7 (TRPM7) predicts a better prognosis in patients with Luminal A breast cancers. BMC Cancer 2022; 22:951.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common female tumors arising worldwide, and genetic and epigenetic events are constantly accumulated in breast tumorigenesis. The melastatin-related transient receptor potential 7 channel (TRPM7) is a nonselective cation channel, mainly maintaining Zn2+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ homeostasis. It is also involved in regulating proliferation and migration in various cancers including breast cancer. However, epigenetic alterations (such as promoter methylation) of TRPM7 and their correlation with clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients remain largely unclear. In this study, we found that TRPM7 was highly expressed in the luminal A subtype of breast cancers but no other subtypes compared with GTEx (Genotype-Tissue Expression Rad) or normal samples by analyzing the TCGA database. Correspondingly, TRPM7 was methylated in 42.7% (93 of 219) of breast cancers. Further studies found that promoter methylation of TRPM7 were significantly associated with better clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients, especially in the Luminal A subtype. Besides, methylated TRPM7 was correlated with less number of metastatic lymph nodes and longer local failure free survival time in this subtype. In summary, our data indicate that promoter methylation of TRPM7 may predict poor prognosis in patients with luminal A breast cancer.

Abstract
The bifunctional cation channel/kinase TrpM7 is ubiquitously expressed and regulates embryonic development and pathogenesis of several common diseases. The TrpM7 integral membrane ion channel domain regulates transmembrane movement of divalent cations, and its kinase domain controls gene expression via histone phosphorylation. Mechanisms regulating TrpM7 are elusive. It exists in two populations in the cell: at the cell surface where it controls divalent cation fluxes, and in intracellular vesicles where it controls zinc uptake and release. Here we report that TrpM7 is palmitoylated at a cluster of cysteines at the C terminal end of its Trp domain. Palmitoylation controls the exit of TrpM7 from the endoplasmic reticulum and the distribution of TrpM7 between cell surface and intracellular pools. Using the Retention Using Selective Hooks (RUSH) system, we demonstrate that palmitoylated TrpM7 traffics from the Golgi to the surface membrane whereas non-palmitoylated TrpM7 is sequestered in intracellular vesicles. We identify the Golgi-resident enzyme zDHHC17 and surface membrane-resident enzyme zDHHC5 as responsible for palmitoylating TrpM7 and find that TrpM7-mediated transmembrane calcium uptake is significantly reduced when TrpM7 is not palmitoylated. The closely related channel/kinase TrpM6 is also palmitoylated on the C terminal side of its Trp domain. Our findings demonstrate that palmitoylation controls ion channel activity of TrpM7 and that TrpM7 trafficking is dependant on its palmitoylation. We define a new mechanism for post translational modification and regulation of TrpM7 and other Trps.

Abstract
Pancreatic diseases, such as pancreatitis or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, are characterized by the presence of activated pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs). These cells represent key actors in the tumor stroma, as they actively participate in disease development and progression: reprograming these PSCs into a quiescent phenotype has even been proposed as a promising strategy for restoring the hallmarks of a healthy pancreas. Since TRPM7 channels have been shown to regulate hepatic stellate cells proliferation and survival, we aimed to study the role of these magnesium channels in PSC activation and proliferation. PS-1 cells (isolated from a healthy pancreas) were used as a model of healthy PSCs: quiescence or activation were induced using all-trans retinoic acid or conditioned media of pancreatic cancer cells, respectively. The role of TRPM7 was studied by RNA silencing or by pharmacological inhibition. TRPM7 expression was found to be correlated with the activation status of PS-1 cells. TRPM7 expression was able to regulate proliferation through modulation of cell cycle regulators and most importantly p53, via the PI3K/Akt pathway, in a magnesium-dependent manner. Finally, the analysis of TCGA database showed the overexpression of TRPM7 in cancer-associated fibroblasts. Taken together, we provide strong evidences that TRPM7 can be considered as a marker of activated PSCs.

Abstract
Mechanical forces exerted on neural crest cells control their collective migration and differentiation. This perspective discusses our current understanding of neural crest mechanotransduction during cell migration and differentiation. Additionally, we describe proteins that have mechanosensitive functions in other systems, such as mechanosensitive G-protein-coupled receptors, mechanosensitive ion channels, cell-cell adhesion, and cell-matrix-interacting proteins, and highlight that these same proteins have in the past been studied in neural crest development from a purely signaling point of view. We propose that future studies elucidate the mechanosensitive functions these receptors may play in neural crest development and integrate this with their known molecular role.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels are cationic permeable proteins located on the plasma membrane. TRPs are cellular sensors for perceiving diverse physical and/or chemical stimuli; thus, serving various critical physiological functions, including chemo-sensation, hearing, homeostasis, mechano-sensation, pain, taste, thermoregulation, vision, and even carcinogenesis. Dysregulated TRPs are found to be linked to many human hereditary diseases. Recent studies indicate that TRP ion channels are not only involved in sensory functions but are also implicated in regulating the biological characteristics of stem cells. In the present review, we summarize the expressions and functions of TRP ion channels in stem cells, including cancer stem cells. It offers an overview of the current understanding of TRP ion channels in stem cells.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg2+) is the most prevalent divalent intracellular cation. As co-factor in many enzymatic reactions, Mg2+ is essential for protein synthesis, energy production, and DNA stability. Disturbances in intracellular Mg2+ concentrations, therefore, unequivocally result in delayed cell growth and metabolic defects. To maintain physiological Mg2+ levels, all organisms rely on balanced Mg2+ influx and efflux via Mg2+ channels and transporters. This review compares the structure and the function of prokaryotic Mg2+ transporters and their eukaryotic counterparts. In prokaryotes, cellular Mg2+ homeostasis is orchestrated via the CorA, MgtA/B, MgtE, and CorB/C Mg2+ transporters. For CorA, MgtE, and CorB/C, the motifs that form the selectivity pore are conserved during evolution. These findings suggest that CNNM proteins, the vertebrate orthologues of CorB/C, also have Mg2+ transport capacity. Whereas CorA and CorB/C proteins share the gross quaternary structure and functional properties with their respective orthologues, the MgtE channel only shares the selectivity pore with SLC41 Na+/Mg2+ transporters. In eukaryotes, TRPM6 and TRPM7 Mg2+ channels provide an additional Mg2+ transport mechanism, consisting of a fusion of channel with a kinase. The unique features these TRP channels allow the integration of hormonal, cellular, and transcriptional regulatory pathways that determine their Mg2+ transport capacity. Our review demonstrates that understanding the structure and function of prokaryotic magnesiotropic proteins aids in our basic understanding of Mg2+ transport.

Abstract
Background Sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury (S‐AKI) has been reported to affect 30%–50% of all sepsis patients; this condition is associated with a notable fatality rate. Following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, the expression of transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 7 (TRPM7), a nonselective cation channel expressed by the renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) was found to be upregulated. We aimed to determine how TRPM7 functions in S‐AKI. Methods To establish an in vitro model of S‐AKI, RTECs were treated with LPS. The effect of TRPM7 knockdown on cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, apoptosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress was studied. The binding site between Kruppel‐like factor 2 (KLF2) and TRPM7 was predicted using JASPAR. The influence of KLF2 on the regulatory roles of TRPM7 in cells, as well as the effect of their knockdown on the MAPK signaling pathway, was investigated. Results TRPM7 was upregulated in LPS‐treated cells, and knocking improved cell viability, reduced LDH levels, and minimized apoptosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress. KLF2 was shown to be associated with TRPM7 and its level decreased in LPS‐treated cells. KLF2 knockdown increased TRPM7 expression and reversed the effects of TRPM7 knockdown in LPS‐treated cells, including suppression of p38 MAPK, ERK1/2, and JNK activation. Conclusion Taken together, our results show that TRPM7 is negatively regulated by KLF2 and promotes LPS‐induced inflammatory dysfunction by activating the MAPK pathway in RTECs. The theoretical foundation for the prevention and management of S‐AKI is laid out in this article.

Curcumin has been studied as a therapeutic drug for wound healing because of its anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and anti-bacterial activities. However, the detailed mechanism of curcumin in wound healing is not clear. It is well-known that the skin is the largest organ in humans and prevents tissues from damage, including infection, radiation, and mechanical damage. Wound healing of the skin is a complex physiological regulation process requiring various cell types and cytokines; hence, wound healing, including surgery and care, incurs a huge expenditure each year. Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 7 (TRPM7) regulates multiple physiological and pharmacological processes through its channel and kinase activities. In addition, TRPM7 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and anti-oxidative activity, thereby playing a regulatory role in the wound healing process. This study aimed to explore the function of curcumin in the wound healing process. METHODS We first established TRPM7 overexpression and knockdown models in fibroblasts using lentivirus. CCK-8 and wound healing assays were used to clarify whether overexpression of TRPM7 promoted proliferation and migration in fibroblasts. Expression of target genes and proteins was detected using qPCR and western blotting. Concentrations of migration-related cytokines were measured using ELISA. RESULTS Proliferation and migration of fibroblasts increased after curcumin treatment and was further enhanced after overexpression of TRPM7. In addition, expression of proliferation-related genes and proteins was elevated after TRPM7 overexpression. Further, the secretion of migration-related cytokines was elevated after TRPM7 overexpression. CONCLUSION Curcumin treatment promoted proliferation and migration of fibroblasts, and these effects were mediated by the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3)/SMAD family member 3/hypoxia-inducible factor 1 subunit alpha signaling pathway. Thus, we conclude that overexpression of TRPM7 might contribute to wound healing.

Alterations of Serum Magnesium Concentration in Animal Models of Seizures and Epilepsy—The Effects of Treatment with a GPR39 Agonist and Knockout of the Gpr39 Gene. Cells 2022; 11:cells11131987. [PMID: 35805072 PMCID: PMC9265460 DOI: 10.3390/cells11131987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Several ligands have been proposed for the GPR39 receptor, including the element zinc. The relationship between GPR39 and magnesium homeostasis has not yet been examined, nor has such a relationship in the context of seizures/epilepsy. We used samples from mice that were treated with an agonist of the GPR39 receptor (TC-G 1008) and underwent acute seizures (maximal electroshock (MES)- or 6-hertz-induced seizures) or a chronic, pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced kindling model of epilepsy. MES seizures and PTZ kindling, unlike 6 Hz seizures, increased serum magnesium concentration. In turn, Gpr39-KO mice that underwent PTZ kindling displayed decreased concentrations of this element in serum, compared to WT mice subjected to this procedure. However, the levels of expression of TRPM7 and SlC41A1 proteins—which are responsible for magnesium transport into and out of cells, respectively—did not differ in the hippocampus between Gpr39-KO and WT mice. Furthermore, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry applied to hippocampal slices did not reveal differences in magnesium levels between the groups. These data show the relationship between magnesium homeostasis and certain types of acute or chronic seizures (MES seizures or PTZ kindling, respectively), but do not explicitly support the role of GPR39 in mediating magnesium balance in the hippocampus in the latter model. However, decreased expression of TRPM7 and increased expression of SLC41A1—which were observed in the hippocampi of Gpr39-KO mice treated with TC-G 1008, in comparison to WT mice that received the same treatment—implicitly support the link between GPR39 and hippocampal magnesium homeostasis.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is classified as a subtype of stroke and Calcium (Ca2+) overload is a catalyst for ICH. This study explored the mechanisms of Stat1 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 1) in the neuronal Ca2+ overload after ICH. ICH mouse models and in vitro cell models were established. Stat1 and transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (Trpm7) were detected up-regulated in ICH models. Afterwards, the mice were infected with the lentivirus containing sh-Stat1, and HT22 cells were treated with si-Stat1 and the lentivirus containing pcDNA3.1-Trpm7. The neurologic functional impairment, histopathological damage, and Nissl body in mice were all measured. HT22 cell viability and apoptosis were identified. The levels of Ca2+, Trpm7 mRNA, H3K27 acetylation (H3K27ac), CaMKII-α, and p-Stat1 protein in the tissues and cells were determined. We found that silencing Stat1 alleviated ICH damage and repressed the neuronal Ca2+ overload after ICH. H3K27ac enrichment in the Trpm7 promoter region was examined and we found that p-Stat1 accelerated Trpm7 transcription via promoting H3K27ac in the Trpm7 promoter region. Besides, Trpm7 overexpression increased Ca2+ overload and aggravated ICH. Overall, p-Stat1 promoted Trpm7 transcription and further aggravated the Ca2+ overload after ICH.

Abstract
Farnesoid x receptor (FXR) is a nuclear bile acid receptor that belongs to the nuclear receptor superfamily. It plays an essential role in bile acid biosynthesis, lipid and glucose metabolism, liver regeneration, and vertical sleeve gastrectomy. A loss of the FXR gene or dysregulations of FXR-mediated gene expression are associated with the development of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis, tumorigenesis, inflammation, and diabetes mellitus. Magnesium ion (Mg2+) is essential for mammalian physiology. Over 600 enzymes are dependent on Mg2+ for their activity. Here, we show that the Trpm6 gene encoding a Mg2+ channel is a direct FXR target gene in the intestinal epithelial cells of mice. FXR expressed in the intestinal epithelial cells is absolutely required for sustaining a basal expression of intestinal Trpm6 that can be robustly induced by the treatment of GW4064, a synthetic FXR agonist. Analysis of FXR ChIP-seq data revealed that intron regions of Trpm6 contain two prominent FXR binding peaks. Among them, the proximal peak from the transcription start site contains a functional inverted repeat 1 (IR1) response element that directly binds to the FXR-RXRα heterodimer. Based on these results, we proposed that an intestinal FXR-TRPM6 axis may link a bile acid signaling to Mg2+ homeostasis.

Abstract
Cetuximab is the first-line treatment for advanced metastatic colon cancer. But cetuximab can cause electrolyte disturbances, including hypomagnesemia and hypokalemia. Among them, hypokalemia is often caused by hypomagnesemia, not directly caused by cetuximab. This article reports two cases of refractory hypokalemia caused by cetuximab without hypomagnesemia. The two patients had no abnormalities in serum potassium before cetuximab treatment. The occurrence of hypokalemia was clearly correlated with the cetuximab, and they were significantly improved after stopping or reducing the dose. At the same time, the appearance of hypokalemia is significantly related to the efficacy of cetuximab. They have received 37 and 35 cycles of cetuximab-related therapy, with condition stable periods of 12.8 and 15.1 months, respectively. Obviously, our report refutes the above view. In our opinion, hypokalemia, a side effect of cetuximab, may be directly caused by it, rather than secondary to hypomagnesemia. Similar to hypomagnesemia, the appearance of hypokalemia often indicates a better curative effect of cetuximab.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) is a ubiquitously expressed chanzyme comprised of a divalent cation channel permeable to calcium and magnesium and a cytosolic serine-threonine α-kinase domain. TRPM7 has a crucial role in magnesium ion homeostasis and anoxic neuronal death, which was identified as a potential non-glutamate target for hypoxic-ischemic neuronal injury. TRPM7 is implicated in ischemic stroke and hypomagnesemia in many studies, but it has not been associated with disease in the OMIM database. No clinical cases between TRPM7 gene variants and hypomagnesemia have been reported, so far. One patient with recurrent hemiplegic migraine attacks accompanied by intractable hypomagnesemia was followed up at Tianjin Children's Hospital from 2018 to 2021. We systematically summarized and analyzed the clinical manifestations, imaging features, and serum magnesium changes of the patient. Genetic analysis was performed by whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing to infer the etiology of hemiplegic migraine attacks and hypomagnesemia in this patient. Gene sequencing revealed a novel heterozygous variant of the TRPM7 gene (c.2998A>G, p. Met1000Val), which has not been reported previously; this is also a de novo variant that is not inherited from his parents. We described a novel variant p. Met1000Val (c.2998A>G) located in the transmembrane region of TRPM7 protein, which is possibly crucial for the normal function of the ion channel. Our study expands the variation spectrum of the TRPM7 gene, highlights the importance of molecular genetic evaluation in patients with TRPM7 gene deficiency, and demonstrates the causal relationship between TRPM7 gene variants and disease manifestations.
