Processes underlying mechanotransduction and its regulation are poorly understood. Inhibitors of Ca2+-activated K+ channels cause a dramatic increase in afferent output from stretched muscle spindles. We used immunocytochemistry to test for the prese...

Expression of Transient Receptor Potential channels TRPC1 and TRPV4 in venoatrial endocardium of the rat heart (2014)
Journal Article
Shenton, F., & Pyner, S. (2014). Expression of Transient Receptor Potential channels TRPC1 and TRPV4 in venoatrial endocardium of the rat heart. Neuroscience, 267, 195-204. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroscience.2014.02.047

The atrial volume receptor reflex arc serves to regulate plasma volume. Atrial volume receptors located in the endocardium of the atrial wall undergo mechanical deformation as blood is returned to the atria of the heart. The mechanosensitive channel(...
