Article Abstract
Mitochondria are closely related to oxidative stress and play an important role in maintaining cell functional homeostasis and meeting cell energy demand. The transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) channel affects the occurrence and progression of diseases by regulating mitochondrial function. TRPM2 channel promotes Ca influx to affect 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO), mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), reactive oxygen species (ROS), adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, and mitochondrial autophagy. The mechanism of Ca influx into the mitochondria by TRPM2 is abundant. Interestingly, the TRPM2 channel inhibits the production of mitochondrial ROS in cancer cells and promotes the production of mitochondrial ROS in normal cells, which induces cell death in normal cells but proliferation in cancer cells. TRPM2 can be a potential target for the treatment of various diseases due to its role as a molecular link between mitochondria and Ca signals.

Background: Microglia are brain resident cells that control neural network maintenance, damage healing, and brain development. Microglia undergo apoptosis, cytokine production, and reactive free radicals of oxygen (ROS) in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. TRPM2 is activated by LPS-induced oxidative stress, but it is inhibited by carvacrol (CARV) and N-(p-amylcinnamoyl)anthranilic acid (ACA).

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the effects of bupivacaine on acute kidney injury (AKI) through kidney function parameters and cardiac tissue damage via TRPM2, HSP70, TLR4, NF-κB, and TNF-α biomarkers.
Material And Method: Male Wistar albino rats were divided into 4 groups, with seven rats in each group: Control group, AKI group (kidney damage induced by glycerol), AKI + L group (group treated with bupivacaine), and L group (group treated with bupivacaine alone). At the end of the experiment, kidney and heart tissues were collected for histological analysis, and serum samples were taken for biochemical analysis.

H9N2 influenza virus, a prevalent influenza A virus, causes acute lung injury through mitochondrial damage associated with oxidative stress. Transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) is a Ca permeable non-selective cation channel that can trigger oxidative stress via Ca overload. Excessive ROS generation leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid peroxides accumulation, contributing to ferroptosis.

Cutaneous malignant melanoma remains one of the most aggressive forms of skin cancer, characterized by high metastatic potential and resistance to standard therapies. Emerging evidence suggests that transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, non-selective cation channels involved in calcium homeostasis, and cellular stress responses play a pivotal role in melanoma development and progression. This review highlights the physiological expression of key TRP subfamilies (TRPM1, TRPM7, TRPM8, TRPV1, TRPV4, and TRPM2) in melanocytes and discusses their dysregulation in melanoma cells.

Cardiovascular and metabolic disorders significantly reduce healthspan and lifespan, with oxidative stress being a major contributing factor. Oxidative stress, marked by elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS), disrupts cellular and systemic functions. One proposed mechanism involves TRPM2 (Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin2)-dependent Ca dysregulation.
