The physiological roles for TRPV4 are tissue specific and the mechanisms behind this specificity remain mostly unclarified. It is noteworthy that mutations in the TRPV4 channel have been associated to a broad spectrum of congenital diseases, with most of these mutations mainly resulting in gain-of-function. Mutations have been identified in human patients showing a variety of phenotypes and symptoms, mostly related to skeletal and neuromuscular disorders. Since TRPV4 is so widely expressed throughout the body, it comes as no surprise that the literature is growing in evidence linking this protein to malfunction in systems other than the skeletal and neuromuscular. In this review, we summarize the expression patterns of TRPV4 in several tissues and highlight findings of recent studies that address critical structural and functional features of this channel, particularly focusing on its interactions and signaling pathways related to Ca<sup>2+</sup> entry. Moreover, we discuss the roles of TRPV4 mutations in some diseases and pinpoint some of the mechanisms underlying pathological states where TRPV4’s malfunction is prominent.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9678,"journal":{"name":"Cell calcium","volume":"124 ","pages":"Article 102972"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142749679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most gonadotrophs and thyrotrophs spontaneously fired high-amplitude single action potentials, which were silenced by SST without affecting intracellular calcium concentrations. In contrast, lactotrophs and somatotrophs spontaneously fired low-amplitude plateau-bursting action potentials in conjunction with calcium transients, both of which were silenced by SST. Moreover, SST inhibited GPCR-induced voltage-gated calcium signaling and hormone secretion in all cell types expressing SST receptors, but the inhibition was more pronounced in somatotrophs. The pattern of inhibition of electrical activity and calcium signaling was consistent with both direct and indirect inhibition of voltage-gated calcium channels, the latter being driven by cell type-specific hyperpolarization. These results indicate that the action of SST in somatotrophs is enhanced by the expression of several types of SST receptors and their slow desensitization, that SST may play a role in the electrical resynchronization of gonadotrophs, thyrotrophs, and lactotrophs, and that the lack of SST receptors in corticotrophs and melanotrophs keeps them excitable and ready to responses to stress.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9678,"journal":{"name":"Cell calcium","volume":"124 ","pages":"Article 102967"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142614266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Importantly, therapy-resistant tumors are particularly susceptible to ferroptotic cell death, rendering ferroptosis a promising therapeutic strategy against numerous malignancies. Calcium signals are important regulators of both cancer progression and cell death, with recent studies indicating their involvement in ferroptosis. Cells undergoing ferroptosis are characterized by plasma membrane rupture and the formation of nanopores, which facilitate influx of ions such as Ca<sup>2+</sup> into the affected cells. Furthermore, mitochondrial Ca²⁺ levels have been implicated in directly influencing the cellular response to ferroptosis.
