Figure Lengend Snippet: TrkA- and TRPM8 expression and morphology of DRG neurons in culture . (A&B) Small diameter DRG neurons in culture express the TrkA receptor and TRPM8 channels. Immunofluoresence images of 12 hr DRG cultures stained with (A) an anti-TrkA (green), (B) an anti-TRPM8 (green) antibodies, and DAPI (blue). Analysis of somatic diameters displaying immunoreactivity (closed circles) for (C) TrkA and (D) TRPM8 show a significant bias of TrkA and TRPM8 immunoreactivity (closed circles) in smaller neurons (<15 μm) compared with TrkA and TRPM8 negative neurons (open circles). (n = 326 and 223 cells counted respectively, scale bar is 20 μm). (E) TRPM8 immunoreactivity in culture. DRG neurons displaying effusive growth cone morphologies (suitable of calcium imaging experiments) were TRPM8 positive (scale bar is 50 μm).

Figure Lengend Snippet: siRNA silencing of TRPM8 expression . Figure shows the level of TRPM8 immunoreactivity as determined by immunocytochemistry and by western blotting after treatment with siRNA oligonucleotides. (A) TRPM8 staining of a DRG growth cone treated with a non-specific control siRNA or with a specific TRPM8 siRNA oligonucleotide (#57381). The dotted line describes outline of the growth cone in the TRPM8 siRNA culture. (B) Quantitative analysis of TRPM8 immunocytochemistry shows that there was a significant decrease in TRPM8 expression in the presence of the TRPM8 siRNA (#57381, n = 73 growth cones) compared with the non-specific control siRNA (n = 56 growth cones). (C,D) Western blot and quantitation of TRPM8 immunoreactivity after treatment with 3 different TRPM8 siRNA oligonucleotides and a non-specific control siRNA. (C) Extracts from siRNA-treated DRG cultures were applied to SDS gels and probed with an anti-TRPM8 antibody. (D) Quantitative analysis of blots revealed significant knockdown of TRPM8 protein expression compared to cultures treated with a non-specific control siRNA. TRPM8 siRNA levels were normalised to GAPDH expression. Figure shows 60-70% knockdown achieved with 3 separate TRPM8 oligonucleotides. Values are means of 9 replicate immunoblot lanes over 3 separate experiments. Significant differences from control are depicted as: ** p < 0.005 as determined by a Mann-Whitney U-test. Error bars show means ± SEM

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of TRPM8 knockdown on TTR-induced calcium influx . TRPM8 channels are necessary for L55P-induced calcium influx. Representative images of DRG neurons loaded with (A) non-specific control siRNA elicited a greater L55P-induced calcium influx (ΔF/F 0 ) than growth cones loaded with (B) specific TRPM8 siRNA (#57381). (C) Pooled results show calcium influx (ΔF/F 0 ) in response to L55P for control siRNA (closed circles, n = 12) and a specific TRPM8 siRNA (open circles, n = 16) from 3 separate experiments. (D) Using 3 different TRPM8 siRNA oligonucleotides results in a similar reduction in L55P-mediated calcium entry.

No effect of ACC-049 on noxious cold induced human TRPA1 (B) or heat induced TRPV1 activation (C). Small molecule antagonists AMG9090 and AMG6541 are the positive control for TRPA1 (B) or TRPV1 (C) blockage, respectively. Note the near complete blockade of TRPM8 activation by ACC-049 at 2.5 µM, similar to that by the positive small molecule antagonist control M8-B (A). Neither control IgG, nor peptide-absorbed ACC-049, or peptide alone blocked activation of any of the channels tested (A–D). Values are means of triplicate measures in a single experiment and expressed as percent of control (POC). Agonist induced 45 Ca 2+ uptake in the absence of antibodies (no Ab) was considered as 100 percent and wells with small molecule antagonists plus 45 Ca 2+ were set as zero percent.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Concentration dependent antagonism of icilin induced activation of the human (A), rat (B) or mouse (C) TRPM8 channels by ACC-049, control IgG and M8-B measured by 45 calcium uptake. Note the right shifted concentration response of ACC-049 on human TRPM8 (A) compared to rat (B) or mouse (C) TRPM8, while the small molecule antagonist positive control M8-B exhibited comparable responses on TRPM8 channels of all species tested (A–C). Values are means of triplicate measures in a single experiment and expressed as percent of control (POC). Icilin induced 45 Ca 2+ uptake was considered as 100 percent and wells with only assay buffer plus 45 Ca 2+ were set as zero percent.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Concentration dependent antagonism of menthol induced activation of the human (A), rat (B) or mouse (C) TRPM8 channels by ACC-049, control IgG and M8-B measured by 45 calcium uptake. Human TRPM8 channel activation was blocked by ACC-049 in a concentration dependent manner (A), but there was no antagonistic effect of ACC-049 on either rat (B) or mouse (C) TRPM8 channels activated by menthol. The small molecule antagonist positive control M8-B exhibited comparable responses on TRPM8 channels of all species tested (A–C). Values are means of triplicate measures and expressed as percent of control (POC). Menthol induced 45 Ca 2+ uptake was considered as 100 percent and wells with only assay buffer plus 45 Ca 2+ were set as zero percent.

Note the complete block of TRPM8 channel activation by ACC-049 ( a ), MyBiosource ( b ) and Enzo Lifesciences ( g ) antibodies at the single concentration tested. Small molecule positive control M8-B also completely blocked TRPM8 channel activation ( h ). B. Five out of seven antibodies tested ( a, b, e, f, g ) block icilin activation of rat DRG neurons by 70–80%, two antibodies ( c, d ) are ineffective. Values are means of triplicate measures in a single experiment and expressed as percent of control (POC). 45 Ca 2+ uptake of CHO-TRPM8 cells activated with 1 µM icilin and antigen peptide ( j ) was considered as 100 percent and wells with only assay buffer plus 45 Ca 2+ were set as zero percent.
