The recently identified transient receptor potential (TRP) channel family member, TRPV4 (formerly known as OTRPC4, VR-OAC, TRP12, and VRL-2) is activated by hypotonicity. It highly expressed in the kidney well blood-brain barrier-deficient hypothalamic nuclei responsible for systemic osmosensing. Apart from its gating hypotonicity, little about regulation. We observed that hypotonic stress resulted rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of a heterologous expression model native murine distal...

The SLC30A8 gene codes for a pancreatic beta-cell-expressed zinc transporter, ZnT8. A polymorphism in the is associated with susceptibility to type 2 diabetes, although molecular mechanism through which this phenotype manifest incompletely understood. Such polymorphisms may exert their effect via impacting expression level of product. We used an shRNA-mediated approach reproducibly downregulate ZnT8 mRNA by >90% INS-1 beta cell line. ZnT8-downregulated cells exhibited diminished uptake...

Arsenic trioxide (ATO) is an effective therapeutic agent against acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL); however, its anti-tumor effect on solid tumors such as colorectal cancer (CRC) still in debate. Ascorbic acid (AA) also produces a selective cytotoxic activity tumor cells. Here, we exploit the potential benefit of ATO/AA combination generating cytotoxicity to CRC cells, which may lay ground work for combinational chemotherapy CRCs. According results, found that ATO and AA effectively...

We identified a consensus N-linked glycosylation motif within the pore-forming loop between fifth and sixth transmembrane segments of osmoresponsive transient receptor potential (TRP) channel TRPV4. Mutation this residue from Asn to Gln (i.e., TRPV4 N651Q ) resulted in loss slower migrating band on anti-TRPV4 immunoblots marked reduction lectin-precipitable immunoreactivity. HEK293 cells transiently transfected with mutant exhibited increased calcium entry response hypotonic stress relative...

The prototypical member of the vanilloid-responsive-like subfamily transient receptor potential (TRP) channels is TRPV1. TRPV1 mediates aspects nociception and neurogenic inflammation; however, new roles are emerging in sensation both luminal stretch systemic tonicity. Although at least six nonsynonymous polymorphisms human gene have been identified, there has no systematic investigation into their functional consequences. When heterologously expressed HEK293 cells, all variants exhibited...

Abstract Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are reported as the precursor of metastases, implying that stifling CTCs would be beneficial for metastasis prevention. However, challenges remain application therapies aim at due to lack effective CTC‐targeting strategy and sensitive therapeutic agents. Herein, a general CTC‐intervention based on neutrophil cyto‐pharmaceuticals is proposed suppressing CTC colonization formation. Breast cancer 4T1 infused mimic CTCs, trapped first elucidated in...
