TRPM2-mediated Ca2+ influx induces chemokine production in monocytes that aggravates inflammatory neutrophil infiltration

Abstract: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) induce chemokines responsible for the recruitment of inflammatory cells to sites of injury or infection. Here we show that the plasma membrane Ca 2+ -permeable channel TRPM2 controls ROS-induced chemokine production in monocytes. In human U937 monocytes, hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) evokes Ca 2+ influx through TRPM2 to activate Ca 2+ -dependent tyrosine kinase Pyk2 and amplify Erk signaling via Ras GTPase. This elicits nuclear translocation of nuclear factor-κB essential for the p… Show more

“…Although not described in β-cells, a role for TRPM2 has been described in the inflammation through up-regulation of chemokines [42]. Inhibition of TRPM2 channels indeed prevents inflammation in a mouse model of colitis and inflammatory and neuropathic pain [42,43].…”

“…While human neutrophils are responsive to CCK stimulation, the physiological effect seems rather immunosuppressive than stimulatory in nature [38]. In contrast, a recent report emphasizes the key role of ROS-induced TRPM2 activation in aggravating chemokine-initiated neutrophil infiltration [39].…”

“…TRPM2 KO mice 28 were bred in-house and used at 9 to 10 weeks of age (20 to 30 g). Wild-type C57Bl/6 mice (males and 1 females, 9 to 10 weeks of age, weighing 20 to 30 g) were purchased from Charles River Laboratories (Wilmington, MA, USA).…”
