TRPV4 forms a DEP-sensitive [Ca.sup.2+] pathway downstream of PI3-K/PLC-[beta]3.
The Anabolic Effect of Low-Magnitude Compression Is Inhibited by Inhibiting the Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 4 (
TRPV4) Channel.
Additional mechanisms include structural and functional abnormalities of mitochondria, free radical-mediated oxidative stress, molecular transport by cation channeling (
TRPV4), vitamin uptake (SLC52A3 and SLC52A2), nuclear transport (GLE1), lipid metabolism (ASAH1), and axonal transport (BICD2 and DYNC1H1).
For instance,
TRPV4 expressed in skin keratinocytes functions as a pruriceptor, mediating the histaminergic itch and scratching behavior [320].

TRPV4 channel inhibits TGF[beta]1- induced proliferation of hepatic stellate cells," PLoS ONE, vol.
The researchers said that those phenomena were almost completely attributed to
TRPV4 activation, since such responses were eliminated by a
TRPV4 inhibitor and reduced in TRPV4-deficient urothelial cells.
TRPV4 enhances cellular uptake of aminoglycoside antibiotics.

TRPV4 and TRPM8 to colonic nociception in mice," PLoS One, vol.
The underlying mechanotransduction mechanism of transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (
TRPV4) was also investigated.
In this case, TRP channels of soft touch receptors would induce [Ca.sup.2+] influx by activation of TRPC7,
TRPV4, TRPM3, and TRPP, all of which have a high conductance (about 100 pS) for [Ca.sup.2+].
Furthermore, PAR4 activation has been demonstrated to reverse the PAR2 or transient receptor potential vanilloid-4 (
TRPV4) activation that is evoked in colorectal hypersensitivity [8].
