However, not all effects of cannabinoids are ascribable to their interaction with CB1 and CB2 receptors; indeed, macromolecules like other types of receptors, ion channels, transcription factors, enzymes, transporters, and cellular structure have been suggested to mediate the functional effects of cannabinoids. Among the proposed molecular targets of endocannabinoids, potassium channels constitute an intriguing group, because these channels not only are crucial in shaping action potentials and controlling the membrane potential and cell excitability, thereby regulating a wide array of physiological processes, but also serve as potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of cancer and metabolic, neurological and cardiovascular disorders. This review sought to survey evidence pertaining to the CB1 and CB2 receptor-independent actions of endocannabinoids on ion channels, with an emphasis on AEA and potassium channels.

The kinetics of nAChRs with high affinity for ACh but no measurable ion conductance is called desensitization. This adopted desensitization of nAChR channel currents might be an important mechanism for protecting cells against uncontrolled excitation. This study aimed to show that <i>Grammostola spatulata</i> toxin (GsMTx4), which was first purified and characterized from the venom of the tarantula <i>Grammostola spatulata</i> (now genus Phixotricus), can facilitate the desensitization of nAChRs in murine C2C12 myotubes. To examine the details, muscle-type nAChRs, which are expressed heterologously in HEK293T cells, were studied. A single channel current was recorded under the cell-attached configuration, and the channel activity (NP_o) decayed much faster after the addition of GsMTx-4 to the pipette solution. The channel kinetics were further analyzed, and GsMTx-4 affected the channel activity of nAChRs by prolonging the closing time without affecting channel conductance or opening activity. The interaction between nAChRs embedded in the lipid membrane and toxin inserted into the membrane may contribute to the conformational change in the receptor and thus change the channel activity.

Alternative splicing in the C-terminus of their pore-forming α1-subunits gives rise to C-terminal long (Cav1.3_L) and short (Cav1.3_S) splice variants allowing Cav1.3_S to activate at even more negative voltages than Cav1.3_L.

Many hypotheses have been formulated about the mechanisms of neuropathic pain among which elevated expression of T-type calcium channels in peripheral nociceptive nerve fibers (so-called “nociceptors”) is seen as a hallmark in several experimental pain models [1]. Nociceptors have their cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and express predominantly the Cav3.2 channel subtype whose primary function is to regulate neuronal firing and synaptic transmission at dorsal horn synapses [2]. Given these important functions in peripheral sensory neurons, aberrant expression of T-type channels in primary pain fibers comes as a pertinent cellular mechanism of neuropathic pain syndromes. How this up-regulation of T-type channels occurs at a mechanistic level has been the subject of a great deal of research in recent years and several studies pointed to a role of post-translationalmodification of the channel protein. Post-translational modification refers to changes a protein may undergo after translation (cleavage and/or covalent addition of chemical moieties) and serves as a secondary level of control to fine tune its functional expression. While post-translational modification of proteins is an essential part of cellular homeostasis, it has become increasingly evident that this process is altered in pathological conditions including pain syndromes. Using a mouse model or peripheral nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain, Garcia-Caballero et al., reported a decreased ubiquitinylation of Cav3.2 channels in primary afferent nerve fibers [3]. Biochemical analysis revealed that this effect was mediated by the up-regulation of the deubiquitinylating enzyme USP5 resulting in the accumulation of Cav3.2 in the plasma membrane. Importantly, the authors showed that prophylactic knockdown of USP5, or prophylactic disruption of the Cav3.2/USP5 complex, was sufficient to prevent nerve-injury-induced mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia demonstrating the causal implication of the ubiquitinylation machinery in the development of neuropathic pain in this experimental model. In yet another study using the same experimental pain model, the authors reported a decreased SUMOylation of USP5 in peripheral nociceptive nerve fibers [4]. Given that SUMOylation of USP5 negatively regulates its ability to interact with Cav3.2, decreased SUMOylated USP5 during nerve injury would favor Cav3.2/USP5 interaction. This would add to the already elevated level of USP5, which would enhance the deubiquitinylation of Cav3.2 and further potentiate the expression of the channel in the plasma membrane. Asparagine (N)-linked glycosylation is another type of post-translational modification that has been reported to potentially contribute to peripheral painful diabetic neuropathy.
