Calcium (Ca<sup>2+</sup>)-activated chloride (Cl<sup>−</sup>) channels, such as TMEM16A, are inferred to be involved in asthma. Therefore, the present study investigated the therapeutic potential of TMEM16A inhibition in a guinea pig model of ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic asthma. Guinea pigs were treated with a specific blocker, CaCCinh-A01 (10 μM), administered via inhalation. A significant reduction in cough reflex sensitivity and specific airway resistance was observed in animals treated with CaCCinh-A01, highlighting its potential to improve airway function. Despite a reduction in ciliary beating frequency (CBF), CaCCinh-A01 reduced airway mucus viscosity by decreasing the production of mucin-5AC (MUC5AC). The nonspecific reduction in the Th1/Th2 cytokine spectrum following CaCCinh-A01 treatment indicated the suppression of airway inflammation. Additionally, markers associated with airway remodeling were diminished, suggesting that CaCCinh-A01 may counteract structural changes in airway tissues. Therefore, inhibition appears to mitigate the pathological aspects of asthma, including airway hyperresponsiveness, inflammation, and remodeling. However, further studies are required to comprehensively evaluate the potential of TMEM16A as a therapeutic target for asthma.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16786,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacological sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142552112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Amitriptyline (AMI) and duloxetine (DLX), which are antidepressant drugs, have been reported to ameliorate pain in patients with FM and pain-related behaviors in several rodent models of FM. However, the mechanisms of action of AMI and DLX are not yet fully understood. Here, we examined the effects of these drugs on the responsiveness of superficial dorsal horn (SDH) neurons in the spinal cord, using a rat FM model developed by injecting a biogenic amine depleter (reserpine). Extracellular recordings of SDH neurons <em>in vivo</em> demonstrated that bath application of AMI and DLX at concentrations of 0.1–1.0 mM on the dorsal surface of the spinal cord markedly suppressed spontaneous discharge and von Frey filament-evoked mechanical firing in SDH neurons. The suppression induced by the drugs was noted in a concentration-dependent manner and the suppressive effects resolved after washing the spinal cord surface. These results show that SDH neurons are the site of action for AMI and DLX in a rat reserpine-induced FM model.
