1 RESULTS: Either co-transfection with Pirt or intracellular application of PIP2 (but not PI) significantly enhanced menthol-induced TRPM8 currents. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Diphosphate transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 Homo sapiens
2 Furthermore, Pirt and PIP2 synergistically modulated menthol-induced TRPM8 currents. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Diphosphate transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSION: Pirt and PIP2 synergistically enhance TRPM8 channel activity, and Pirt regulates TRPM8 channel activity by increasing the single channel conductance. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Diphosphate transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 Homo sapiens
