1.2. Supplementary Figures
Supplementary Figure 1. Ca2+ induced-Ca2+ release from ryanodine- and IP3-sensitive internal
stores is not involved in the TRPV1/NCLX crosstalk. Representative traces (left) of capsaicin-
induced changes (1 µM, puff applied) in cytosolic Ca2+ indicator Fura-2 AM fluorescence, in
nociceptor-like DRG neurons co-transfected with either siControl (black) or siNCLX (red) and treated
with10 M Ryanodine, 10 M Xestospongine C and 100 M 2-APB (see Methods). Note, decrease in
amplitude and influx of [Ca2+]C, in neurons transfected with siNCLX. Right, Mean ± SEM of changes
in amplitude (peak (F- F0)/F0), and cytosolic Ca2+ influx rate (ΔF/s). nsiControl = 30; nsiNCLX = 25. **

transients in HEK293T cells transfected with either siControl or siMCU following a puff application of
1 µM capsaicin (indicated by arrow). B. Mean ± SEM of mitochondrial Ca2+ influx and efflux rate
(ΔF/s) in siControl (black, n=120) and siMCU (red, n=95). ** p < 0.01; Student's t-test.

transients. A. Left, representative traces of changes in fluorescence of HEK293T cells loaded with
Fura 2AM, co-transfected with TRPV1 and either siControl or siNCLX, following a short application
of 1 µM capsaicin (indicated by arrow) in the presence of Na+ or Li+ in bath solution. Right, mean ±
SEM of peak ratio (peak (F- F0)/F0) and capsaicin-induced cytosolic Ca2+ influx rates for siControl and
siNCLX (n=110). B. Left, representative traces of changes in mitochondrial Ca2+ indicator Rhod-2 AM
fluorescence, following application of 1 µM capsaicin in the presence of Na+ or Li+ , in bath solution,
imaged from HEK293T cells co-transfected with TRPV1 and either siControl or siNCLX. Right, mean
± SEM of mitochondrial Ca2+ influx and efflux rate (ΔF/s) recorded from HEK293T cells co-transfected
with TRPV1 and either siControl or siNCLX (n=100). * p<0.05, Student's t-test.

Supplementary Figure 5. Capsaicin does not affect the mitochondrial membrane potential in
naïve HEK293T cells. Left, normalized representative fluorescent traces of the mitochondrial
membrane potential in HEK293T cells transfected either with TRPV1 or empty vector (pcDNA).
Right, quantification of changes in fluorescence after application of 10µM capsaicin in HEK293T cells
with or without TRPV1 expression (n=84). FCCP was added at the end of each experiment, to calibrate
for mitochondrial membrane potential.
