چکیده
Running Title: Age-dependent regulation of TRPV5 and TRPV6 Abstract Aging is associated with alterations in Ca 2+ homeostasis, which predisposes elder people to hyperparathyroidism and osteoporosis. Intestinal Ca 2+ absorption decreases with aging and in particular active transport of Ca 2+ by the duodenum. In addition, there are age-related changes in renal Ca 2+ handling. To examine age-related changes in expression of the renal and intestinal epithelial Ca 2+ channels,

Age-dependent alterations in Ca2+ homeostasis: role of TRPV5 and TRPV6.
Aging is associated with alterations in Ca2+ homeostasis, which predisposes elder people to hyperparathyroidism and osteoporosis. Intestinal Ca2+ absorption decreases with aging and, in particular, active transport of Ca2+ by the duodenum. In addition, there are age-related changes in renal Ca2+ handling. To examine age-related changes in expression of the renal and intestinal epithelial Ca2+ c...
متن کاملHypervitaminosis D mediates compensatory Ca2+ hyperabsorption in TRPV5 knockout mice.
Vitamin D plays an important role in Ca(2+) homeostasis by controlling Ca(2+) (re)absorption in intestine, kidney, and bone. The epithelial Ca(2+) channel TRPV5 mediates the Ca(2+) entry step in active Ca(2+) reabsorption. TRPV5 knockout (TRPV5(-/-)) mice show impaired Ca(2+) reabsorption, hypercalciuria, hypervitaminosis D, and intestinal hyperabsorption of Ca(2+). Moreover, these mice demonst...
متن کاملDirect Interaction with Rab11a Targets the Epithelial Ca Channels TRPV5 and TRPV6 to the Plasma Membrane
TRPV5 and TRPV6 are the most Ca -selective members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of cation channels and play a pivotal role in the maintenance of Ca balance in the body. However, little is known about the mechanisms controlling the plasma membrane abundance of these channels to regulate epithelial Ca transport. In this study, we demonstrated the direct and specific interactio...
متن کاملAlteration of calcium homeostasis in primary preeclamptic syncytiotrophoblasts: effect on calcium exchange in placenta
Preeclampsia (PE) is characterized by maternal hypertension, proteinuria, oedema and, in 30% of cases, by intrauterine growth retardation. Causes are still unknown; however, epidemiological and clinical studies have suggested alterations in maternal calcium metabolism. We suggested that in PE, calcium transport by the syncytiotrophoblast (ST) is disturbed. From total placental tissues, we studi...
متن کاملFirst evidence of TRPV5 and TRPV6 channels in human parathyroid glands: possible involvement in neoplastic transformation
The parathyroid glands play an overall regulatory role in the systemic calcium (Ca(2+)) homeostasis. The purpose of the present study was to demonstrate the presence of the Ca(2+) channels transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) 5 and TRPV6 in human parathyroid glands. Semi-quantitative and quantitative PCR was carried out to evaluate the presence of TRPV5 and TRPV6 mRNAs in sporadic para...
