In the past years, several hereditary diseases caused by defects in transient receptor potential channels (TRP) genes have been described. This review summarizes our current knowledge about TRP channelopathies and their possible pathomechanisms. Based on available genetic indications, we will also describe several putative pathological conditions in which (mal)function of TRP channels could be anticipated.
在过去的几年中,已经描述了几种由瞬时受体电位通道 (TRP) 基因缺陷引起的遗传性疾病。这篇综述总结了我们目前对 TRP 通道病及其可能的发病机制的了解。根据现有遗传证据,我们还将描述几种可能的病理情况,其中可以预期 TRP 通道的(异常)功能。
