The role of mechanosensitive ion channels in the gastrointestinal tract
19 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Mechanosensation is essential for normal gastrointestinal (GI) function, and abnormalities in mechanosensation are associated with GI disorders. There are several mechanosensitive ion channels in the GI tract, namely transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, Piezo channels, two-pore domain potassium (K2p) channels, voltage-gated ion channels, large-conductance Ca 2+ -activated K + (BKCa) channels, and the...
