Abstract

Transient receptor potential vanilloid 3 (TRPV3), robustly expressed in the skin, is a nonselective calcium-permeable cation channel activated by warm temperature, voltage, and certain chemicals. Natural monoterpenoid carvacrol from plant oregano is a known skin sensitizer or allergen that specifically activates TRPV3 channel. However, how carvacrol activates TRPV3 mechanistically remains to be understood. Here, we describe the molecular determinants for chemical activation of TRPV3 by the agonist carvacrol. Patch clamp recordings reveal that carvacrol activates TRPV3 in a concentration-dependent manner, with an EC50 of 0.2 mM, by increasing the probability of single-channel open conformation. Molecular docking of carvacrol into cryo-EM structure of TRPV3 combined with site-directed mutagenesis further identified a unique binding pocket formed by the channel S2-S3 linker important for mediating this interaction. Within the binding pocket consisting of four residues (Ile505, Leu508, Arg509, and Asp512), we report that Leu508 is the most critical residue for the activation of TRPV3 by carvacrol, but not 2-APB, a widely used nonspecific agonist and TRP channel modulator. Our findings demonstrate a direct binding of carvacrol to TRPV3 by targeting the channel S2-S3 linker that serves as a critical domain for chemical-mediated activation of TRPV3. We also propose that carvacrol can function as a molecular tool in the design of novel specific TRPV3 modulators for the further understanding of TRPV3 channel pharmacology.

As a member of transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) cation channel subfamily, the multimodal and nonselective calcium-permeable TRPV3 is robustly expressed in the skin and is activated by innocuous temperature at 31 to 33 °C, membrane potential, and chemical ligands (1Peier A.M.

Accumulating evidence shows that TRPV3 channel is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological functions including skin inflammation, cutaneous pain, chronic itch, thermosensation, and hair growth (4Asakawa M.

TRPV3 forms a tetrameric channel complex with each subunit consisting of six transmembrane-spanning segments (S1-S6), a pore-forming loop between S5 and S6, and cytosolic amino- (N-) and carboxy- (C-) termini (15Shioya T. Sato K. Sano M. Watanabe H. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channel and cough.Nihon Yakurigaku Zasshi. 2008; 131: 417-422Google Scholar). The ion permeation pathway of TRPV3 is lined by the S6 helices and the extended portions of the pore loops, including selectivity filter, central cavity, and gates (16Zubcevic L. Herzik M.A. Wu M. Borschel W.F. Hirschi M. Song A.S. Lander G.C. Lee S.-Y. Conformational ensemble of the human TRPV3 ion channel.Nat. Commun. 2018; 9: 4773Google Scholar). The S6 methionine residues (M677) form the intracellular gate with their side chains organized as a hydrophobic seal facing toward the center of ion permeation pathway (17Singh A.K. McGoldrick L.L. Sobolevsky A.I. Structure and gating mechanism of the transient receptor potential channel TRPV3.Nat. Struct. Mol. Biol. 2018; 25: 805-813Google Scholar). Unlike the gating rearrangements in TRPV1 (18Liao M. Cao E. Julius D. Cheng Y. Structure of the TRPV1 ion channel determined by electron cryo-microscopy.Nature. 2013; 504: 107-112Google Scholar, 19Gao Y. Cao E. Julius D. Cheng Y.

Grassucci R.A. Sobolevsky A.I. Opening of the human epithelial calcium channel TRPV6.Nature. 2018; 553: 233-237Google Scholar), upon heat or agonist binding, both the outer pore and the intracellular gate alone with conformational changes propagate to the TRP helix and result in overall conformational changes in TRPV3, especially the S1-S4 domains and the intracellular skirt rotating around the pore domain and expelling the lipids (17Singh A.K. McGoldrick L.L. Sobolevsky A.I. Structure and gating mechanism of the transient receptor potential channel TRPV3.Nat. Struct. Mol. Biol. 2018; 25: 805-813Google Scholar). The S1-S4 domain structural rearrangements underline the distinct gating mechanism of TRPV3 function (17Singh A.K. McGoldrick L.L. Sobolevsky A.I. Structure and gating mechanism of the transient receptor potential channel TRPV3.Nat. Struct. Mol. Biol. 2018; 25: 805-813Google Scholar). TRPV3 is activated by a variety of chemicals, including natural compounds such as camphor, carvacrol, thymol, synthesized 2-aminoethyl diphenylborinate (2-APB), and intracellular protons (21Cao X. Yang F. Zheng J. Wang K. Intracellular proton-mediated activation of TRPV3 channels accounts for the exfoliation effect of α-hydroxyl acids on keratinocytes.J. Biol.

Neurosci. 2006; 9: 628-635Google Scholar). As a widely used tool molecule, 2-APB not only activates TRPV3 or other members of TRPs such as TRPV1, TRPV2, TRPA1, and TRP melastatin 6 (TRPM6) (24Hu H.Z. Gu Q. Wang C. Colton C.K. Tang J. Kinoshita-Kawada M. Lee L.Y. Wood J.D. Zhu M.X. 2-Aminoethoxydiphenyl borate is a common activator of TRPV1, TRPV2, and TRPV3.J. Biol.

Chemical activation of TRPV3 is featured of different gating mechanisms. Electrophysiological characterizations confirm that two residues H426 in pre-S1 and R696 in the TRP helix are specifically required for TRPV3 sensitivity to 2-APB, but not camphor or voltage (23Xu H.

Camphor also activates TRPV3 with an EC50 about 6 mM, involving the S4-S5 linker for its binding (30Vogt-Eisele A.K. Weber K. Sherkheli M.A. Vielhaber G. Panten J. Gisselmann G. Hatt H.
