Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to elucidate transient receptor potential canonical(TRPC) channels functioning as endothelin type A receptor(ET_AR)-operated Ca^<2+> channel and its regulatory mechanism. The results obtained from molecular pharmacological studies indicate that(1) both TRPC3 and TRPC6 contribute to ET_AR-operated Ca^<2+> entry,(2) G_<q/11> protein, phospholipase C, Src, phosphoinositide 3-kinase, calmodulin(CaM), and CaM/IP_3 receptor binding domain at the C terminus of TRPC3 and TRPC6 are involved in ET_AR-mediated Ca^<2+> entry via TRPC3 and TRPC6, and(3) TRPC6 is negatively regulated by protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of Ser^<28>
