Expression of Truncated Transient Receptor Potential protein 1α (Trp1α)

Enhanced expression of transient receptor potential channel 3 in uterine smooth muscle tissues of lipopolysaccharide-induced preterm delivery mice

Objective(s): We aimed to investigate the influence of transient receptor potential channel 3 (TRPC3) on lipopolysaccharide-induced (LPS) preterm delivery mice. Materials and Methods: Mice were randomly assigned to the four groups: an unpregnant group, a mid-pregnancy group (E15), a term delivery group, and an LPS-induced preterm delivery group (intraperitoneal injection LPS at 15 days). Uterin...

Morphine-induced analgesic tolerance is associated with alteration of protein kinase Cγ and transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 genes expression in rat lumbosacral cord and midbrain

Introduction: Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) and protein kinase Cγ (PKCγ) are involved in sensitization/desensitization to noxious stimuli. We aimed to examine the gene expression levels of TRPV1 and PKCγ in rat lumbosacral cord and midbrain on days 1, 4 and 8 of induction of morphine analgesic tolerance. Methods: Two groups of male Wistar rats received ...

Expression of transient receptor potential channel 6 in cervical cancer

BACKGROUND Recent studies have reported that aberrant expression of transient receptor potential channel C6 (TRPC6) in a variety of human cancers is associated with aggressive behavior. However, the functional significance of TRPC6 in human cervical cancer is not known. This study was planned to detect whether TRPC6 is expressed in cervical cancer tissue and to evaluate the association between ...

Vascular Expression of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1)

Dear Editor, In the February 2014 issue of the Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, Tόth and colleagues published a report on Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) expression and function in the rat vascular system (Tόth et al. 2014). The authors found that several commercially available anti-TRPV1 antibodies were not selective for TRPV1, and identified two that were considered...
