Depolarization by Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 4 in Pancreatic Alpha-Cells Regulates Glucagon Secretion
The Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 4 protein (TRPM4) is a member of the TRP family of ion channels that is expressed in both electrically excitable and non-excitable cells. Functional studies revealed that TRPM4 significantly impacts Ca2+ signals in both immune and pancreatic β-cells, which...
