“The role of TRPV4 channel and its signaling pathway in the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis”

Dr. Du’s laboratory is interested in understanding gating mechanisms of TRPV4 channels and regulatory mechanisms of TRPV4 signaling pathways. Her seminar will summarize some of her recent work related to the interactions of TRPV4 with TRPP2、TRPC1 and small conductance Ca2+ activated K+ channels. The role of TRPV4 in dysfunction of vascular endothelial cells in diabetes and aging will also be discussed.
