  • Molecular Basis for Heat Desensitization of TRPV1 Ion Channels
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-09965-6 OPEN Molecular basis for heat desensitization of TRPV1 ion channels Lei Luo1,2,5, Yunfei Wang1,2,5, Bowen Li1,5, Lizhen Xu3, Peter Muiruri Kamau1,2, Jie Zheng 4, Fan Yang3, Shilong Yang1 & Ren Lai1 The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) ion channel is a prototypical molecular sensor for noxious heat in mammals. Its role in sustained heat response remains poorly 1234567890():,; understood, because rapid heat-induced desensitization (Dh) follows tightly heat-induced activation (Ah). To understand the physiological role and structural basis of Dh, we carried out a comparative study of TRPV1 channels in mouse (mV1) and those in platypus (pV1), which naturally lacks Dh. Here we show that a temperature-sensitive interaction between the N- and C-terminal domains of mV1 but not pV1 drives a conformational rearrangement in the pore leading to Dh. We further show that knock-in mice expressing pV1 sensed heat normally but suffered scald damages in a hot environment. Our findings suggest that Dh evolved late during evolution as a protective mechanism and a delicate balance between Ah and Dh is crucial for mammals to sense and respond to noxious heat. 1 Key Laboratory of Animal Models and Human Disease Mechanisms of Chinese Academy of Sciences/Key Laboratory of Bioactive Peptides of Yunnan Province, Kunming Institute of Zoology, Kunming, Yunnan 650223, China. 2 University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China. 3 Key Laboratory of Medical Neurobiology, Department of Biophysics and Kidney Disease Center, First Affiliated Hospital, Institute of Neuroscience, National Health Commission and Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, Zhejiang 310058, China.

(Ph.D., Molecular Biology) Investigation of Iron’s Role in Alginate Production and Mucoidy by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Thesis directed by Professor Michael Vasil. ABSTRACT Iron, an essential nutrient, influences the production of major virulence factors and the development of structured non-alginate biofilms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Fur, pyoverdine and various concentrations of iron sources have all been shown to affect non-alginate biofilm formation. Remarkably however, the role of iron in alginate biofilm formation and mucoidy is unknown. Because of alginate’s association with biofilms in chronic cystic fibrosis (CF) lung infections, we examined the influence of iron on alginate production and mucoidy in P. aeruginosa. Herein, we identify and characterize a novel iron-regulated protein that affects the transcription of alginate biosynthesis genes. Further, contrary to what is known about non-alginate biofilms, we discovered that biologically relevant concentrations of iron (10 µM – 300 µM), in various forms (e.g. FeCl3, Ferric Citrate, Heme), led to the decreased expression of alginate biosynthesis genes and the dispersion of alginate biofilms in mucoid P.

Their overall structure is similar to the structure of voltage gated potassium channels (Kv) built up as homotetramers from subunits with six transmembrane helices (S1-S6). Six TRPV channel subtypes (TRPV1-6) are known, that can be subdivided into the thermoTRPV 2+ (TRPV1-4) and the Ca -selective TRPV channels (TRPV5, TRPV6). Contrary to Kv channels, TRPV channels are not primary voltage gated. All six channels have distinct properties and react to several endogenous ligands as well as different gating stimuli such as heat, pH, mechanical stress, or osmotic changes.

Despite their use for centuries in traditional medicine, centipede venoms remain poorly studied. However, recent work indicates that centipede venoms are highly complex chemical arsenals that are rich in disulfide-constrained peptides that have novel pharmacology and three-dimensional structure. Areas covered: This review summarizes what is currently know about centipede venom proteins, with a focus on disulfide-rich peptides that have novel or unexpected pharmacology that might be useful from a therapeutic perspective. We also highlight the remarkable diversity of constrained three- dimensional peptide scaffolds present in these venoms that might be useful for bioengineering of drug leads. Expert opinion: The resurgence of interest in peptide drugs has stimulated interest in venoms as a source of highly stable, disulfide-constrained peptides with potential as therapeutics.

While some venoms are of relatively simple composition, many contain hundreds to thousands of individual components with distinct pharmacological activity. Pain-inducing or “algesic” venom compounds have proven invaluable to our understanding of how physiological nociceptive neural networks operate. In this review, we present an overview of some of the diverse nociceptive pathways that can be modulated by specific venom components to evoke pain. Keywords: animal venom; pain; ASIC; sodium channel; TRP channel; pore forming toxin 1. Venoms and Their Pharmacological Effects Venoms can be defined broadly as toxins secreted by an animal for the purpose of harming or incapacitating predators or prey.

Received: 24 January 2019; Accepted: 20 February 2019; Published: 23 February 2019 Abstract: Chronic pain is a major medical issue which reduces the quality of life of millions and inflicts a significant burden on health authorities worldwide. Currently, management of chronic pain includes first-line pharmacological therapies that are inadequately effective, as in just a portion of patients pain relief is obtained. Furthermore, most analgesics in use produce severe or intolerable adverse effects that impose dose restrictions and reduce compliance. As the majority of analgesic agents act on the central nervous system (CNS), it is possible that blocking pain at its source by targeting nociceptors would prove more efficient with minimal CNS-related side effects. The development of such analgesics requires the identification of appropriate molecular targets and thorough understanding of their structural and functional features. To this end, plant and animal toxins can be employed as they affect ion channels with high potency and selectivity. Moreover, elucidation of the toxin-bound ion channel structure could generate pharmacophores for rational drug design while favorable safety and analgesic profiles could highlight toxins as leads or even as valuable therapeutic compounds themselves.

Academic Editor: Steve Peigneur Received: 28 September 2017; Accepted: 13 October 2017; Published: 16 October 2017 Abstract: Beyond providing evolutionary advantages, venoms offer unique research tools, as they were developed to target functionally important proteins and pathways. As a key pain receptor in the nociceptive pathway, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) of the TRP superfamily has been shown to be a target for several toxins, as a way of producing pain to deter predators. Importantly, TRPV1 is involved in thermoregulation, inflammation, and acute nociception. As such, toxins provide tools to understand TRPV1 activation and modulation, a critical step in advancing pain research and the development of novel analgesics. Indeed, the phytotoxin capsaicin, which is the spicy chemical in chili peppers, was invaluable in the original cloning and characterization of TRPV1. The unique properties of each subsequently characterized toxin have continued to advance our understanding of functional, structural, and biophysical characteristics of TRPV1. By building on previous reviews, this work aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the advancements made in TRPV1 research in recent years by employing animal toxins, in particular DkTx, RhTx, BmP01, Echis coloratus toxins, APHCs and HCRG21.

Here we showed that 21 the voltage sensitivity of TRPV1 does not originate from the S4 segment like 22 classic voltage-gated ion channels; instead, outer pore acidic residues directly 23 partake in voltage-sensitive activation, with their negative charges collectively 24 constituting the observed gating charges.
