Dvornikova KA, Platonova ON, Bystrova EY. The Role of TRP Channels in Sepsis and Colitis. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:4784. [PMID: 38731999 PMCID: PMC11084600 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25094784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2024] [Revised: 04/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
To date, several members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channels which provide a wide array of roles have been found in the gastrointestinal tract (GI). The goal of earlier research was to comprehend the intricate signaling cascades that contribute to TRP channel activation as well as how these receptors' activity affects other systems. Moreover, there is a large volume of published studies describing the role of TRP channels in a number of pathological disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and sepsis. Nevertheless, the generalizability of these results is subject to certain limitations. For instance, the study of IBD relies on various animal models and experimental methods, which are unable to precisely imitate the multifactorial chronic disease. The diverse pathophysiological mechanisms and unique susceptibility of animals may account for the inconsistency of the experimental data collected. The main purpose of this study was to conduct a comprehensive review and analysis of existing studies on transient receptor potential (TRP) channels implicating specific models of colitis and sepsis, with particular emphasis on their involvement in pathological disorders such as IBD and sepsis. Furthermore, the text endeavors to evaluate the generalizability of experimental findings, taking into consideration the limitations posed by animal models and experimental methodologies. Finally, we also provide an updated schematic of the most important and possible molecular signaling pathways associated with TRP channels in IBD and sepsis.

Signal Transduct Target Ther 2023; 8:261. [PMID: 37402746 DOI: 10.1038/s41392-023-01464-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [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.

New and Upcoming Topical Treatments for Atopic Dermatitis: A Review of the Literature. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11174974. [PMID: 36078904 PMCID: PMC9456375 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11174974] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2022] [Revised: 08/22/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis with periods of exacerbation and remissions. AD is characterized by intense, persistent pruritus and heterogeneity in clinical symptomatology and severity. Therapeutic goals include the amelioration of cutaneous eruptions, diminishing relapses and eventually the disease burden. To date, topical corticosteroids (TCS) and calcineurin inhibitors (TCI) have yet been deemed the mainstay of topical treatments in AD management. Nevertheless, despite their indisputable efficiency, TCS and TCI are not indicated for continuous long-term use given their safety profile. While research in AD has concentrated predominantly on systemic therapies, more than 30 novel topical compounds are under development. The existing data appear encouraging, with some regimens that are already FDA-approved (ruxolitinib was the most recent in September 2021) and several pharmaceutical pipeline products for mild-to-moderate AD that are in an advanced stage of development, such as tapinarof, difamilast and roflumilast. Larger, long-term studies are still required to evaluate the efficacy and safety of these novel compounds in the long run and weigh their advantages over present treatments. In this review, we aim to provide an overview of the latest knowledge about AD topical treatments, echoing upcoming research trends.

Asivatrep, a TRPV1 antagonist, for the topical treatment of atopic dermatitis: Phase 3, randomized, vehicle-controlled study (CAPTAIN-AD). J Allergy Clin Immunol 2021; 149:1340-1347.e4. [PMID: 34606832 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaci.2021.09.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2021] [Revised: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Asivatrep is a potent and selective antagonist of transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1), which plays an important role in itch and inflammation in atopic dermatitis (AD). OBJECTIVE This current study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of asivatrep cream in patients with AD. METHODS For this phase 3 double-blind, vehicle-controlled study, patients aged ≥12 years with mild to moderate AD were enrolled and randomly assigned 2:1 to the 1.0% asivatrep or vehicle group for 8 weeks of twice-daily application (n = 240). The primary end point was the proportion of patients with an Investigator's Global Assessment score (IGA) of 0 or 1 at week 8. Standard safety assessments were conducted. RESULTS At week 8, significantly more patients in the asivatrep group (36.0%) than in the vehicle group (12.8%) had IGA scores of 0 or 1 (P < .001); significantly more had ≥2 points of improvement on the IGA from baseline score (20.3% vs 7.7%; P = .01). The mean percentage reduction in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score was 44.3% for the asivatrep group and 21.4% for the vehicle group at week 8 (P < .001). Significantly more asivatrep-treated patients experienced an improvement of at least 50%, 75%, and 90% on the EASI than the vehicle group. The mean ± SD change in the pruritus visual analog scale score at week 8 was -2.3 ± 2.4 for the asivatrep group and -1.5 ± 2.4 for the vehicle group (P = .02). No significant safety issues were reported. CONCLUSION Asivatrep improved clinical signs and symptoms of AD and was well tolerated.

A capsaicinoid-based soft drug, AG1529, for attenuating TRPV1-mediated histaminergic and inflammatory sensory neuron excitability. Sci Rep 2021; 11:246. [PMID: 33420359 PMCID: PMC7794549 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-80725-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2020] [Accepted: 12/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
TRPV1, a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family, is a nonselective calcium permeable ion channel gated by physical and chemical stimuli. In the skin, TRPV1 plays an important role in neurogenic inflammation, pain and pruritus associated to many dermatological diseases. Consequently, TRPV1 modulators could represent pharmacological tools to respond to important patient needs that still represent an unmet medical demand. Previously, we reported the design of capsaicinoid-based molecules that undergo dermal deactivation (soft drugs), thus preventing their long-term dermal accumulation. Here, we investigated the pharmacological properties of the lead antagonist, 2-((4-hydroxy-2-iodo-5-methoxybenzyl) amino)-2-oxoethyl dodecanoate (AG1529), on heterologously expressed human TRPV1 (hTRPV1), on nociceptor excitability and on an in vivo model of acute pruritus. We report that AG1529 competitively blocked capsaicin-evoked activation of hTRPV1 with micromolar potency, moderately affected pH-induced gating, and did not alter voltage- and heat-mediated responses. AG1529 displays modest receptor selectivity as it mildly blocked recombinant hTRPA1 and hTRPM8 channels. In primary cultures of rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, AG1529 potently reduced capsaicin-evoked neuronal firing. AG1529 exhibited lower potency on pH-evoked TRPV1 firing, and TRPA1-elicited nociceptor excitability. Furthermore, AG1529 abolished histaminergic and inflammation mediated TRPV1 sensitization in primary cultures of DRG neurons. Noteworthy, dermal wiping of AG1529, either in an acetone-based formulation or in an anhydrous ointment, dose-dependently attenuated acute histaminergic itch in a rodent model. This cutaneous anti-pruritic effect was devoid of the normal nocifensive action evoked by the burning sensation of capsaicin. Taken together, these preclinical results unveil the mode of action of AG1529 on TRPV1 channels and substantiate the tenet that this capsaicinoid-based soft drug is a promising candidate for drug development as a topical anti-pruritic and anti-inflammatory medication.

A TRPV1 antagonist, PAC-14028 does not increase the risk of tumorigenesis in chemically induced mouse skin carcinogenesis. Regul Toxicol Pharmacol 2020; 112:104613. [PMID: 32044384 DOI: 10.1016/j.yrtph.2020.104613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2019] [Revised: 01/18/2020] [Accepted: 02/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
PAC-14028 (Asivatrep: C21H22F5N3O3S) cream is a novel, topical nonsteroidal, anti-inflammatory, and TRPV1 (transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily, member 1) antagonist for the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis. Concerns about the risk of tumor development by TRPV1 blockade in the skin have been prompted, but these findings were proved to be indirect or are still controversial. This study was tested to determine whether TRPV1 selective antagonist, PAC-14028 cream is safe from the promotion of skin tumorigenesis in the two-stage carcinogenesis model. PAC-14028 cream, 0.25%, 0.5%, or 1.0% was applied once daily topically to mouse skin for up to 24 weeks in two-stage chemical carcinogenesis testing using 7, 12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Morbidity/death, clinical signs, tumor formation, activity of EGFR/Akt/mTOR signaling, and systemic exposure to PAC-14028 were investigated. Daily dermal administration of PAC-14028, was not skin carcinogenic. There was also no evidence on the activation of EGFR/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway by the topical treatment of PAC-14028. On Day 169, 1.0% (20 mg/kg/day) of PAC-14028 in female mice resulted in a Cmax and AUC0-τ of 12916.0 ng/mL and 78962.9 ng‧hr/mL, respectively. PAC-14028 cream was well tolerated and did not increase the risk of skin tumorigenesis in two-stage carcinogenesis study.
