Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 5 is a calcium channel protein that in humans is encoded by the TRPV5 gene.^[5][6][7]

Function[edit]

The TRPV5 gene is a member of the transient receptor family and the TRPV subfamily. The calcium-selective channel, TRPV5, encoded by this gene has 6 transmembrane-spanning domains, multiple potential phosphorylation sites, an N-linked glycosylation site, and 5 ANK repeats. This protein forms homotetramers or heterotetramers and is activated by a low internal calcium level.^[8]

Both TRPV5 and TRPV6 are expressed in kidney and intestinal epithelial cells.^[9] TRPV5 is mainly expressed in kidney epithelial cells, where it plays an important role in the reabsorption of Ca²⁺,^[10] whereas TRPV6 is mainly expressed in the intestine.^[9] The enzyme α-klotho increases kidney calcium reabsorption by stabilizing TPRV5.^[9] Klotho is a beta-glucuronidase-like enzyme that activates TRPV5 by removal of sialic acid.^[11]

Clinical significance[edit]

Normally, about 95% to 98% of Ca²⁺ filtered from the blood by the kidney is reabsorbed by the kidney's renal tubule, mediated by TRPV5.^[12] Genetic deletion of TRPV5 in mice leads to Ca²⁺ loss in the urine, and consequential hyperparathyroidism, and bone loss.^[13]

Inhibitors[edit]

• Econazole is a weak inhibitor of both TRPV5 and TRPV6, with an IC₅₀ in the micromolar range
• ZINC17988990 is a potent and selective inhibitor of TRPV5, with an IC₅₀ of 177nM and good selectivity over TRPV6 and the other TRPV channel subtypes.^[14]

Interactions[edit]

TRPV5 has been shown to interact with S100A10.^[15]
