Resumo

One important mechanism of membrane ion channels regulation involves their non-functional isoforms generated by alternative splicing. However, knowledge of such isoforms for the members of transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily of ion channels remains quite limited. This study focuses on TRPM member, TRPM8, which functions as a cold receptor in sensory neurons, but is also expressed in tissues not exposed to ambient temperatures, as well as in cancer tissues. We report the cloning from prostate cancer cells of new short-splice variants of TRPM8, termed short TRPM8a (sM8a) and short TRPM8ß (sM8ß). Our results show that both variants are in a closed configuration with the C-terminal tail of the full-size TRPM8 chan-nel, resulting in stabilization of its closed state and thus reducing both its cold sensitivity and its activity. Our findings, therefore, uncover a new mode of the regulation of TRPM8 channel by its splice variants.
