Research Abstract |
Mechano-sensor cation channel TRPM7 and volume-sensor anion channel VSOR play important roles in the cell volume regulation mechanism which determines cell survival and death. The present study showed that TRPM7 exhibits functional modal shifts from a mechano-sensor to an osmo-sensor and a proton-sensor whereas VSOR does so from a volume-sensor to a ROS-sensor and ABC protein-sensor under certain conditions. The present study also showed that TRPM7 interacts with VSOR not only functionally thereby accomplishing cell volume regulation but also molecularly thereby regulating the VSOR activity.
