Purinergic Activation of Ca(2+)-Permeable TRPV4 Channels Is Essential for Mechano-Sensitivity in the Aldosterone-Sensitive Distal Nephron
Mechanical forces are known to induce increases of [Ca(2+)](i) in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron (ASDN) cells to regulate epithelial transport. At the same time, mechanical stress stimulates ATP release from ASDN cells. In this study, we combined ratiometric Fura-2 based monitoring of [Ca(...
