Phenotype triggers

  • normal activity of TrpV4-A
    in epithelial_cell
    • TRPV4 channel is the only pathway mediating the swelling-activated Ca2+ entry required to achieve a full RVD in human tracheal epithelial cells. [1]
    • Human airway epithelia show a typical Ca2+-dependent cell regularoty volume decrease (RVD) under hypotonic conditions. [2]
    • Impaired RVD response in Cystic Fibrosis airway epithelia is caused by a misregulation of TRPV4, suggesting that hypotonic activation of TRPV4 channels is cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator-dependent. [1]
