Abstract
The transient receptor potential (TRP) mucolipin channels TRPML1, TRPML2, and TRPML3 are non-selective cation channels predominantly found in the endolysosomal system. Mutations in the TRPML1 gene (also known as MCOLN1) cause mucolipidosis type IV in humans manifested by psychomotor abnormalities, corneal clouding, retinal degeneration, and progressive neurodegeneration. The recent identification of small compound chemical activators for TRPML channels has opened up the possibility to study TRPML mutant and wild-type isoforms both in vitro and in vivo in more detail. These compounds will permit further investigation on the functional roles of TRPML channels in the endolysosomal system. Ultimately, these drugs or their derivatives could be used to design selective pharmacological tools to gate and rescue specific loss-of-function point mutations in TRPML1 that cause mucolipidosis type IV. Recently discovered TRPML channel interaction partners may serve as alternative pharmacological targets for the treatment of mucolipidosis type IV.
