TRPV6, TRPM6 and TRPM7 Do Not Contribute to Hair-Cell Mechanotransduction

TRPV6, TRPM6 and TRPM7 Do Not Contribute to Hair-Cell Mechanotransduction

Hair cells of the inner ear transduce mechanical stimuli like sound or head movements into electrical signals, which are propagated to the central nervous system. The hair-cell mechanotransduction channel remains unidentified. We tested whether three transient receptor channel (TRP) family members,...
