Research Abstract |
TRPC4 and C6 channels may play non-trivial roles in myofibroblast transformation/differentiation, thereby promoting fibrogenesis in the colon. Our results also suggested that myfibroblast signaling pathways regulating interleukin production, which seem associated with the phosphorylation of Smad2, Erk1/2, and p38 MAPK as well as TRPC6-mediated Ca2+ influx. TRPC4 and TRPC6 could be a promising target in treating fibrotic and inflammatory bowel diseases.
