TPC2-A1-N and TPC2-A1-P, two novel small molecules, differentially activate two-pore channel 2 (TPC2) and mimic the activation of TPC2 with NAADP and PIP2, resulting in distinct ion channel selectivities. These two different modes of TPC2 activity have physiological, and possibly pathophysiological, implications as they can modulate vesicle trafficking and lysosomal exocytosis.
