PPZ2 is a diacylglycerol (DAG)-activated agonist of the TRPC3, TRPC6, and TRPC7 calcium channels. It promotes neuronal development and survival through its ability to elicit cation currents and calcium ion (Ca(2+)) influx in cultured central neurons in a dose-dependent manner. PPZ2 induces BDNF-like neurite outgrowth and provides neuroprotection, effects that are negated following TRPC channel knockdown or inhibition. Additionally, PPZ2 enhances the activation of the calcium-dependent transcription factor cAMP response element binding protein, highlighting the role of calcium signaling in its neurotrophic actions.
