Differential Roles of the Calcium Ion Channel TRPV4 in Host Responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis Early and Late in Infection
27 May 2020
Abstract excerpt
Mycobacterium tuberculosis subverts host immunity to proliferate within host tissues. Non-selective transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels are involved in host responses and altered upon bacterial infections. Altered expression and localization of TRPV4 in macrophages upon virulent M. tuberculosis infection together with differential distribution of TRPV4 in human tuberculosis (TB) granulomas indicate a...
