A series of TRPA1 antagonists is described which has as its core structure an indazole moiety. The physical properties and DMPK profiles are discussed. Good exposure was obtained with several analogs, allowing efficacy to be assessed in rodent models of inflammatory pain. Two compounds showed significant activity in these models when administered either systemically or topically. Protein chimeras were constructed to indicate compounds from the series bound in the S5 region of the channel, and a computational docking model was used to propose a binding mode for example compounds.

The transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channels, characterized as nonselective cation channels with permeability to calcium ions (Ca), are part of the extensive family of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. Research has demonstrated that TRPA1 channels function as sensors for oxidative stress in the renal tubules. Additionally, TRPA1 expression has increased in renal tissue following ischemia-reperfusion (IR).

Truncated TrkB (TrkBT1), traditionally considered a dominant-negative regulator of full-length TrkB (TrkBTK+), remains poorly understood in peripheral sensory neurons, particularly nociceptors. Furthermore, sensory neuronal TrkB expression and function has been traditionally associated with non-nociceptive neurons, particularly Aδ low-threshold mechanoreceptors. This study challenges prevailing assumptions by demonstrating that TrkBT1 is the predominant TrkB isoform expressed in sensory neurons and plays a functional role in modulating neuronal activity.

Development, optimization, and calibration of human transient receptor potential (TRP) channel Ca mobilization assays for TRPM8, TRPV1, and TRPA1 are described. Heterologous expression of hTRPM8 in HEK293T cells was required for anti-TRPM8 antibody staining and TRPM8 agonist induced Ca mobilization signals which were both used to optimize transfection efficiency. FLIPR Calcium 6 dye concentration, loading time, and TRPM8 transfected cell seeding density were optimized and a DMSO tolerance of ≤0.

Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) molecule is an important type of transient receptor potential (TRP) cation channels, which can cause extracellular Ca to flow into cells after activation. TRPA1 plays an important role in acute and chronic pain, inflammation, kidney disease, cough and asthma, osteoarthritis, cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, and other diseases. In this study, the expression of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and IL-8 in periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) treated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the effect of LPS on PDLSCS proliferation were detected.

Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a non-selective cation channel involved in detecting harmful stimuli and endogenous ligands, primarily expressed in sensory neurons. Due to its role in pain and itch, TRPA1 is a potential drug target. We identified an oxindole core structure via high-throughput screening, modified it, and tested the modified compounds in vitro and in vivo.
