  • The TRPP2-Dependent Channel of Renal Primary Cilia Also Requires TRPM3
    The TRPP2-dependent channel of renal primary cilia also requires TRPM3 Steven J. Kleene1, Brian J. Siroky2, Julio A. Landero-Figueroa3, Bradley P. Dixon4, Nolan W. Pachciarz2, Lu Lu2, and Nancy K. Kleene1 1Department of Pharmacology and Systems Physiology, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio; 2Division of Nephrology and Hypertension, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio; 3Department of Chemistry, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio; 4Renal Section, Department of Pediatrics, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado IntroductIon Primary cilia of renal epithelial cells express several members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) class of cation-conducting channel, including TRPC1, TRPM3, TRPM4, TRPP2, and TRPV4. Some cases of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) are caused by defects in TRPP2 (also called polycystin-2, PC2, or PKD2). A large-conductance, TRPP2- dependent channel in renal cilia has been well described, but it is not known whether this channel includes any other protein subunits. Methods To study this question, we investigated the pharmacology of the TRPP2-dependent channel through electrical recordings from the cilia of mIMCD-3 cells, a murine cell line of renal epithelial origin, results The pharmacology was found to match that of TRPM3 channels. The ciliary TRPP2-dependent channel is known to be activated by depolarization and/or increasing cytoplasmic Ca2+. This activation was greatly enhanced by external pregnenolone sulfate, an agonist of TRPM3 channels. Pregnenolone sulfate did not change the current-voltage relation of the channel. CIM0216, another TRPM3 agonist, modestly increased the activity of the ciliary channels. The channels were effectively blocked by isosakuranetin, a specific inhibitor of TRPM3 channels.

  • The Direct and Functional Interaction of Tubulin with Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 2
    The Direct and Functional Interaction of Tubulin With Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 2 by Colin Elliott Seepersad A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science Cell & Systems Biology University of Toronto © Copyright by Colin Elliott Seepersad 2011 The Direct and Functional Interaction of Tubulin With Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 2 Colin Elliott Seepersad Masters of Science Cell & Systems Biology University of Toronto 2011 Abstract Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 2 (TRPM2) is a widely expressed, non-selective cationic channel with implicated roles in cell death, chemokine production and oxidative stress. This study characterizes a novel interactor of TRPM2. Using fusion proteins comprised of the TRPM2 C-terminus we established that tubulin interacted directly with the predicted C-terminal coiled-coil domain of the channel. In vitro studies revealed increased interaction between tubulin and TRPM2 during LPS-induced macrophage activation and taxol-induced microtubule stabilization. We propose that the stabilization of microtubules in activated macrophages enhances the interaction of tubulin with TRPM2 resulting in the gating and/or localization of the channel resulting in a contribution to increased intracellular calcium and downstream production of chemokines. ii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my supervisor Dr. Michelle Aarts for providing me with the opportunity to pursuit a Master’s of Science Degree at the University of Toronto.

To investigate the functional role of TRPC1 in these neurons and in channel function, we compared current responses to group I metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR I) activation and looked +/+ / for major differences in dendritic morphology in neurons from TRPC1 and TRPC1− − mice. mGluR I stimulation resulted in the activation of a voltage-dependent nonselective cation current in both genotypes. Deletion of TRPC1 resulted in a modification of the shape of the current-voltage relationship, leading to an inward current increase. In current clamp recordings, the percentage of neurons that responded to depolarization in the presence of an mGluR I agonist with a plateau / potential was increased in TRPC1− − mice.

While synaptic and intrinsic cellular mechanisms of persistent firing have been proposed, underlying cellular mechanisms are not yet fully understood. In vitro experiments have shown that individual neurons in the hippocampus and other working memory related areas support persistent firing through intrinsic cellular mechanisms that involve the transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels. Recent behavioral studies demonstrating the involvement of TRPC channels on working memory make the hypothesis that TRPC driven persistent firing supports working memory a very attractive one. However, this view has been challenged by recent findings that persistent firing in vitro is unchanged in TRPC knock out (KO) mice. To assess the involvement of TRPC channels further, we tested novel and highly specific TRPC channel blockers in cholinergically induced persistent firing in mice CA1 pyramidal cells for the first time.

  • Heteromeric TRP Channels in Lung Inflammation

Interestingly, TRP channel subunits can build heterotetramers, whereas heteromeric TRPC1/4, TRPC3/6 and TRPV1/4 are expressed in the lung endothelium and could be targeted as a protec- tive strategy to reduce endothelial permeability in pulmonary inflammation. An update on TRP heteromers and their role in lung inflammation will be provided with this review.
