lüll TRP channels, omega-3 fatty acids, and oxidative stress in neurodegeneration: from the cell membrane to intracellular cross-links Leonelli M; Graciano MF; Britto LRBraz J Med Biol Res 2011[Nov]; 44 (11): 1088-96The transient receptor potential channels family (TRP channels) is a relatively new group of cation channels that modulate a large range of physiological mechanisms. In the nervous system, the functions of TRP channels have been associated with thermosensation, pain transduction, neurotransmitter release, and redox signaling, among others. However, they have also been extensively correlated with the pathogenesis of several innate and acquired diseases. On the other hand, the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 fatty acids) have also been associated with several processes that seem to counterbalance or to contribute to the function of several TRPs. In this short review, we discuss some of the remarkable new findings in this field. We also review the possible roles played by n-3 fatty acids in cell signaling that can both control or be controlled by TRP channels in neurodegenerative processes, as well as both the direct and indirect actions of n-3 fatty acids on TRP channels.|Animals[MESH]|Calcium/metabolism[MESH]|Cell Death/physiology[MESH]|Fatty Acids, Omega-3/*physiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Intracellular Space/physiology[MESH]|Neurodegenerative Diseases/*metabolism[MESH]|Oxidative Stress/*physiology[MESH]|Signal Transduction/physiology[MESH]|Transient Receptor Potential Channels/*physiology[MESH] |
