A TRP family cation channel has been found to be critical for proprioception in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. This is a starting point for understanding conserved mechanotransduction mechanisms in proprioceptor neurons, and for deciphering how sensory feedback can function within a defined neural circuit to produce coordinated patterns of motor activity.
已发现一个瞬时受体电位(TRP)家族阳离子通道对线虫秀丽隐杆线虫的本体感觉至关重要。这是理解本体感觉神经元中保守的机械转导机制,以及解读感觉反馈如何在特定神经回路中发挥作用以产生协调的运动活动模式的起点。
