Figure Lengend Snippet: Immunofluorescence staining, differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy images, and immunofluorescence intensity of the normal and RA FLS cells, Immunofluorescence staining with anti-Ca 2+ release-activated channel regulator 2 A (CRACR2A) antibody (green, Alexa) and DIC images of the normal (A) and RA (B) FLS cells. Immunofluorescence staining with the anti-transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) antibody (red, Alexa) and DIC images of the normal (C) and RA (D) FLS cells. All fluorescence and DIC images were obtained at 20 × magnification using an Olympus FV1000 Confocal Laser Microscope. Scale bar = 100 µm. The mean immunofluorescence intensity of the anti-CRACR2A antibody staining was significantly lower in the normal FLS cells (4.08 ± 0.8 AU) than in the RA FLS cells (20.3 ± 6.9 AU) (p < 0.01). The mean immunofluorescence intensities produced by the anti-TRPV4 antibody staining were not significantly different between the normal (30.3 ± 6.2 AU) and RA (29.7 ± 6.2 AU) FLS cells (E). n.s.: not significant, * *: p < 0.01 , compared between the normal and RA FLS cells.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression levels of ORAI1, stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), CRACR2A, and TRPV4 in the normal and RA FLS cells Western blotting of ORAI1, STIM1, CRACR2A, and TRPV4 expression in the normal and RA FLS cells. (A) The internal controls and representative western blots are shown. Subsequently, 10 or 30 μg of protein per lane was loaded onto the gel. Next, the membranes were probed with specific antibodies against Orai1, STIM1, CRACR2A, or TRPV4 with appropriate secondary antibodies. Protein bands were detected using C-DiGit (LI-COR#3600–00), and the results were analyzed using the ImageJ software (B). The protein amounts were normalized to β-actin amounts to indicate the protein expression ratios. * * and † † represent significant differences from normal FLS, respectively, at p < 0.01.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Ca 2+ influx from the CRAC and TRPV4 of synovial cells in response to SS, When the Ca 2+ in the endoplasmic reticulum was depleted by SS, CRACR2A directly interacted with the cytoplasmic regions of ORAI1 and STIM1 to form a ternary complex, resulting in the intracellular Ca 2+ uptake from extracellular sources. In the RA FLS cells, STIM1 and CRACR2A were overexpressed compared with the expression in the normal FLS cells, and the regulation of intracellular Ca 2+ concentration significantly depended on CRAC. SS also induced Ca 2+ uptake from the extracellular into the intracellular site via TRPV4 and/or other mechanosensitive Ca 2+ channels. However, there were no significant difference in the expression level of TRPV4 between the normal and RA FLS cells, indicating that TRPV4 exerted the same influence on the regulation of intracellular Ca 2+ concentration in both FLS cell types.

Figure Lengend Snippet: The expression of TRAAK and TRPV4 in the mouse retina. (A,B) Retinal slices were retrogradely labeled for ganglion cells (GCs) by neurobiotin (NB) and stained for TRPV4 (green) and TRAAK ( A , pink) or glutamine synthetase (GS, blue, B ). TRPV4 signals are heavier in the GCL. (A) The image was inverted and displaced on a white background. TRAAK is heavily expressed in Müller cells and weakly expressed in OSL and OPL. (B) Axons and somas of GCs are brightly positive for TRPV4. TRPV4 is present in Müller cells (MC). Some somas of putative cone BCs in the second soma row of the INL contain no TRPV4 signals (open arrow, inset b). (C,D) Retinal slices from wild-type (w.t.) and TRPV4 transgenic mice (TRPV4−/−) were labeled for TRPV4 (green) and PKCa (red). (C) Some TRPV4 puncta are present in rod BCs (asterisks) and cone BCs (triangles). (D) TRPV4 signal is nearly absent in TRPV4 transgenic mice. OSL: outer segment layer; ISL: inner segment layer; OPL: outer plexiform layer; INL: inner nuclear layer; BCL-bipolar cell layer; ACL-amacrine cell layer; IPL-inner plexiform layer; GCL-ganglion cell layer; NFL-nerve fiber layer. The scale bar is 5 μm for C and 20 μm for others.

Figure Lengend Snippet: TRPV4 mediates excitatory visual noises and dysfunction of mouse RGCs. RGCs were recorded under loose patch mode (A,B) and whole-cell voltage-clamp mode at various holding potentials (D–G) . (A,B,F,G) TRPV4 agonists enhance spontaneous action potentials ( A,B , arrow) and the spontaneous postsynaptic currents (arrow) and light-evoked excitatory currents (F,G) , reducing the visual signal reliability [VSR = 1-noise (N)/signal (S)] by ~50% (C) . (D,E) Confocal images of a recorded RGC filled with Lucifer yellow ( D : The x-y view; E : The y-z view revealing the dendritic tree and axon of the cell).

Figure Lengend Snippet: The activation of MSCs induces membrane depolarization, ATP depletion, and dysfunction of mouse RGCs. RGCs are recorded under current-clamp (A,B) and voltage-clamp (C) modes. (A,B) Activating MSCs by low osmolarity (Osm) and TRPV4 agonists 4aPDD and GSK101 (GSK) depolarizes MP of RGCs to −40 to −50 mV and elicits spontaneous firing of action potentials (A) , which raises the ATP consume close to the peak level and predicts ATP depletion. (C) The threshold of NaVs in mouse RGCs is close to −50 mV and sensitive to TTX. The duration of the sodium current is ~2 ms. (D) Blue curve: the standard ATP consumption for RGCs to maintain RP was plotted per . TRPV4 agonists raised the ATP consumption (green dot) near the inactivation level of half NaVs (purple dot). Vh: holding potential. MP: membrane potential. RP: resting potential. NaV: voltage-gated sodium channel. RR: ruthenium red, nonspecific blocker of TRPs.
