Initial TRPC research was fueled by high hopes to resolve fundamental questions of cellular Ca2+ signaling. To date, we have learned important lessons in TRPC channel biology and biophysics, while little progress has been made in terms of therapeutic concepts.Areas covered: This is a critical account of recent progress in building a solid mechanistic basis for therapeutic interventions utilizing TRPC3 as a target. I focus on hurdles and key issues to be resolved, thereby drafting a list of essential scientific 'to-dos' on the way toward drugging of TRPC3.Expert opinion: Recent advances in the molecular physiology of TRPC3 include unveiling its lipid sensing machinery and the channels´ ability to serve spatiotemporally diverse Ca2+ signaling in a cell type- and context-dependent manner. The ongoing development of technology for high-precision manipulation of the channel opens up a view on novel therapeutic strategies. It is now to unravel the complex role of TRPC3 in human physiopathology, to pinpoint the channels´ therapeutic relevance, and to further refine technologies for targeted interventions.","PeriodicalId":12185,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142617769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Endothelial cell (EC) senescence constitutes an essential factor in the development of CVDs, prompting increased focus on strategies to alleviate or reverse EC senescence.Areas covered: Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are cell-derived membrane structures, that contain proteins, lipids, RNAs, metabolites, growth factors and cytokines. They are widely used in treating CVDs, and show remarkable therapeutic potential in alleviating age-related CVDs by inhibiting or reversing EC senescence. However, unclear anti-senescence mechanism poses challenges for clinical application of sEVs, and a systematic review is lacking.Expert opinion: Targeting senescent ECs with sEVs in age-related CVDs treatment represents a promising therapeutic strategy, with modifying sEVs and their contents emerging as a prevalent approach. Nevertheless, challenges remain, such as identifying and selectively targeting senescent cells, understanding the consequences of removing senescent ECs and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and assessing the side effects of therapeutic sEVs on CVDs.

Currently, no effective pharmacologic intervention is available to manage this condition effectively.Areas covered: Lipid metabolic disorders, chronic inflammation, vascular dysfunction, coagulopathy, and impaired bone homeostasis are suggested as the key pathogenic mechanisms involved in the development of non-traumatic osteonecrosis. Targeting any of these dysfunctions offers a potential avenue for pharmacologic intervention. However, the potential molecular targets for pharmacologic treatment of non-traumatic osteonecrosis remain underexplored. In this study, we reviewed available databases to compile a comprehensive set of pathogenic mechanisms and corresponding therapeutic targets for non-traumatic osteonecrosis.Expert opinion: Evidence suggests that a single pathogenic mechanism cannot fully explain the development of osteonecrosis, supporting the adoption of a multi-pathogenic theory. This theory implies that effective management of non-traumatic osteonecrosis requires targeting multiple pathogenic mechanisms simultaneously. Moreover, the same pathogenic mechanisms are unlikely to explain osteonecrosis development in patients with different etiologies. Consequently, a one-size-fits-all approach to medication is unlikely to be effective across all types of non-traumatic osteonecrosis. Future research should, therefore, focus on developing multi-target pharmacologic treatments tailored to the specific etiology of non-traumatic osteonecrosis.","PeriodicalId":12185,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets","volume":" ","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142521481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This pathway plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cardiac contractility, and modulation of cGMP-PKG signaling, contributing to the development of the diseases.

Additionally, we have discussed the recent evidence based on pre-clinical studies for possible novel therapies modulating ULK1-mediated autophagy in kidney diseases.Expert opinion: ULK1 is one of the critical regulators of autophagy. Moreover, ULK1 works differently for different types of kidney disease. Considering its significant role in kidney disease pathogenesis, it could be a potential target to tackle kidney diseases.

Recent advances in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic loci associated with UC, providing insights into the disease's molecular mechanisms, including immune modulation, mucosal defense, and epithelial barrier function. Despite these findings, many GWAS signals are located in non-coding regions and are linked to low risk, suggesting that protein-coding genes alone do not fully explain UC's pathophysiology. Emerging research emphasizes the potential of microRNAs (miRNAs) as biomarkers and therapeutic targets due to their crucial role in UC. This review explores the current understanding of miRNAs in UC, including their mechanisms of action and their potential as both biomarkers and therapeutic targets. The present review provides the latest update on their potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.Areas covered: This review synthesizes an extensive literature search on miRNAs in UC, focusing on their roles in the mucosal barrier, innate and adaptive immunity, and their potential applications as biomarkers and therapeutic modalities.Expert opinion: While miRNAs present promising opportunities as biomarkers and novel therapeutic agents in UC, challenges in validation, specificity, delivery, and clinical application need to be addressed through rigorous, large-scale studies.","PeriodicalId":12185,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets","volume":" ","pages":"829-841"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142282691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
