"The present study showed that treatment of uterine strips with TREK-1 channel inhibitor L-methionine insignificantly increased uterine contraction, while treatment with TREK-1 activator arachidonic acid caused a dramatic reduction in uterine contraction, suggesting that the TREK-1 is active and functional during pregnancy in rats."

reach
"Application of arachidonic acid (10 mumol/L), chloroform (1 mmol/L) or etomidate (10 mumol/L) substantially increased TREK-1 channel currents in CHO and hTREK -1 cells."

reach
"Consistent with these previous studies, fluoxetine inhibited TREK1 in basal conditions (I /I = 0.45 ± 0.04, Figure 5A, left panel and Figure 5E), but not TREK1 stimulated by AA (I /I = 1.21 ± 0.06, Figure 5A, right panel and Figure 5E)."

reach
"To further analyze the effects of pyrethroids in the K channels expressed in native neurons, we searched for small/medium-sized neurons, where arachidonic acid (a known activator of TREK-1, TREK-2, and TRAAK ) or cloxyquin (a TRESK-activating compound ) increased the current measured at hyperpolarized voltages in high extracellular K solution."

sparser
"TREK1, TREK2, and TRAAK are activated by arachidonic acid (AA) and other polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as docosahexaenoic acid and linoleic acid [ xref xref xref xref xref ]."

sparser
"Taken together these data demonstrated that spadin displays direct, selective antagonism of AA-activation of TREK-1 channels."

reach
"Arachidonic acid (an activator of TREK channels) had no effect on this conductance."

reach
"The activation of TREK-1 by AA and inhibition by forskolin were closely linked to membrane hyperpolarization and depolarization, respectively."

reach
"Mechanistically, TREK-1 channel may be activated by intracellular acidification and AA accumulation known to occur during ischemia [32,34,9]."

reach
"Application of 10 muM arachidonic acid (AA) (free fatty acid) to cells expressing TREK-1 robustly activates TREK-1."

"Spadin Specifically Antagonizes AA-Activation of TREK-1 Channels."

sparser
"Here, using murine forms of TREK-1 and TREK-2, we provide evidence that spadin is not a direct blocker of TREK-1 when expressed in heterologous systems but an antagonist, displaying no intrinsic activity, able to selectively prevent AA-activation of TREK-1 channels through an allosteric mechanism."

sparser
"To sum up, we reproduced TREK-1 activation by AA upon electrical stimulation."

reach
"TRAAK, TREK-1, and TREK-2 channels are activated by arachidonic acid (AA)."

reach
"Therefore, we suppose that the mechanical stretch due to the mastication activates phospholipase A (2) to release arachidonic acid (AA) from membrane, then, the released AA activates TREK-1."

reach
"Spadin Selectively Antagonizes Arachidonic Acid Activation of TREK-1 Channels."

reach
"Although known as an inhibitor of many K + channels [13], AA also has been demonstrated to stimulate hEAG1 [16], Kir2.3 [17], and the TREK subfamily of K2P channels, including TREK-1, TREK-2, and TRAAK [18]."

reach
"The effect of cochlin was opposite to the well-known effects of shear stress stimulation by fluid flow or arachidonic acid (20microM), which significantly increased TREK-1 current by 72.1 +/-21.9% and 148.7 +/-50.1%, respectively (n = 5 each; Fig."

reach
"Our data suggest that the opening of background K (+) channels, like TREK-1 and TRAAK, which are activated by arachidonic acid and other polyunsaturated fatty acids such as docosahexaenoic acid and linolenic acid, is a significant factor in this neuroprotective effect."

reach
"It is interesting to note that ALA (non-specific activator of TREK-1) or arachidonic acid (activator of TREK-1) increased CVSMCs whole-cell currents, which were blocked by selective blockers of large-conductance Ca-activated K+ channels in both wild-type and TREK-1 (gene name KCNK2) knockout mice [64]."

reach
"Since the known membrane curvature inducer AA had been shown previously to reversibly activate TREK-1, we also tested its effect."

reach
"Therefore, we suppose that the mechanical stretch due to the mastication activates phospholipase A (2) to release arachidonic acid (AA) from membrane, then, the released AA activates TREK-1."

reach
"TREK1, TREK2, and TRAAK are activated by arachidonic acid (AA) and other polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as docosahexaenoic acid and linoleic acid [XREF_BIBR XREF_BIBR XREF_BIBR XREF_BIBR XREF_BIBR]."

reach
"Single channel recording via patch clamping showed that the TREK-1 outward currents in astrocytes could be activated by arachidonic acid (AA) or chloroform with the conductance of 113 +/-14 and 120 +/-13pS, respectively."

sparser
"AA activates TREK-1 with a dose-dependent manner and requires C-terminal part of the channel which is crucial for the activation and the inhibition following phosphorylation by the protein kinase A (PKA)."

reach
"Importantly, in uterine strips treated simultaneously with progesterone and L-methionine, no significant reduction in uterine contraction was observed, and the uterine contraction was at levels similar to those in control tissues without progesterone or L-methionine treatment, suggesting opposing effects of L-methionine and progesterone on TREK-1 channel mediated uterine relaxation TREK-1 activator arachidonic acid causes no further effect on progesterone induced uterine relaxation."

sparser
"However, application of 1 μM spadin alone failed to inhibit mTREK-1-Y284A basal currents; 11.3 ± 1.9 μA (control) versus 11.3 ± 2.0 μA (spadin) ( xref ), and reinforces our suggestion that spadin is not a channel blocker of activated channels, but selectively and specifically antagonizes AA-activation of TREK-1 channels via an allosteric mechanism."

"Fluoxetine had no effect on AA-activated TRAAKpCt TREK1 (I fluoxetine /I control = 0.92 ± 0.03) (Figure xref , right panel andFigure xref )."

reach
"As shown in XREF_FIG, TREK-1 current was potentiated by 10muM arachidonic acid (AA) and application of SPA (10 -6 M) inhibited the AA activated TREK-1 current."

reach
"Since TREK and TRAAK channels are activated by arachidonic acid, it has been suggested that the mechanically sensitive phospholipase A 2 could mediate these effects XREF_BIBR although TRAAK mechanical activation is still possible in the presence of phospholipase A 2 inhibitors."

reach
"It is unlikely that block of phospholipase A underlies the substantive effects on TREK and TRESK channels seen here, because arachidonic acid enhances TREK (and TRAAK) channels (Fink et al., 1996; Enyedi and Czirják, 2010) and blocks TRESK channels (Sano et al., 2003; Kang et al., 2004)."

"Mutation of the same threonine residues also blunts activation of TREK-1 by arachidonic acid and PIP 2 xref ."

reach
"In a number of experiments, we examined the action of AA on membrane patches, keeping in mind that AA could stimulate TREK-1 directly [21]."

reach
"Application of 10 muM arachidonic acid (AA) (free fatty acid) to cells expressing TREK-1 robustly activates TREK-1."

sparser
"Our data infers that spadin is able to antagonize AA-activation of TREK-1 channels via a mechanism that is distinct from the likely site of AA activity, the C-terminal domain, therefore suggesting an allosteric mechanism of antagonism."

sparser
"Our data suggest that the opening of background K(+) channels, like TREK-1 and TRAAK, which are activated by arachidonic acid and other polyunsaturated fatty acids such as docosahexaenoic acid and linolenic acid, is a significant factor in this neuroprotective effect."

reach
"However, the addition of AA to cells can activate TREK-1 in seconds, and our lipidomics study incorporated AA over 15 min."

sparser
"However that spadin antagonizes AA activation of TREK-1 channels, and not that of DHA, suggests that AA activation of TREK-1 may involve a mechanism distinct from the C-terminal domain, interacting with other regions in TREK-1 or inducing its effects through interactions with the lipid bilayer ( xref )."

reach
"In contrast, TREK-1 currents are increased by LecA and AA, both in response to mechanical and electrical stimulation."

reach
"Similarly, arachidonic acid is suggested to activate TREK1 through incorporation in the outer leaflet of the bilayer XREF_BIBR and yet arachidonic does not stimulate TRPC5 XREF_BIBR."

sparser
"The activation of TREK-1 by AA and inhibition by forskolin were closely linked to membrane hyperpolarization and depolarization, respectively."

reach
"As expected, 10 muM of AA produced robust activation of TREK-1 in whole-cell recordings, which reversed slowly upon wash-out (XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY)."

reach
"As shown in XREF_FIG, TREK-1 current was potentiated by 10muM arachidonic acid (AA) and application of SPA (10 -6 M) inhibited the AA activated TREK-1 current."

reach
"Swelling activated and arachidonic acid induced currents are TREK-1 in rat bladder smooth muscle cells."

reach
"Furthermore, as predicted based on arachidonic acid activation of both TREK-1 and TREK-2, some of the small molecules from this TREK-2 HTS were found to activate both TREK-1 and TREK-2."

reach
"Finally, we show that Glu306, an amino acid that has previously been found to be important in the modulation of TREK-1 by arachidonic acid, membrane stretch and internal pH, is critical for the activating effects of the anesthetic gases."

reach
"The channel failed to open in the absence of PLD2 despite very high concentrations of anesthetics in a biological membrane.TWIK-related arachidonic acid-stimulated K+ channel (TRAAK) is an anesthetic-insensitive homolog of TREK-1 (SI Appendix, Fig. S3E)."

sparser
"Arachidonic acid (AA) which is generated during CRH stimulation activates TREK-1 channels and causes hyperpolarization."

reach
"Treatment of 100 nM spadin inhibited about 60% of the TREK-1 current stimulated by arachidonic acid in TREK-1-transfected COS-7 cells."

reach
"Activation of TREK-1 by arachidonic acid (AA) is proposed to occur by a process linked to stretch activation (Brohawn, 2015)."

sparser
"In inside-out patches, AA activated TRAAK, TREK-1, and TREK-2 channels with EC 50 values of 1.2 ± 0.1, 6.9 ± 1.2, and 3.8 ± 0.4 μM, respectively ( xref B and S6C)."

reach
"Mouse TREK-1 and TREK-2 channel currents were both significantly increased by AA, BL-1249, and CDC, similar to their human homologs."
