Fluid shear triggers microvilli formation via mechanosensitive activation of TRPV6
2015
Microvilli on epithelial cells can sense the surrounding fluid environment, but the regulatory mechanism behind their formation is mostly unknown. Here Miura et al. show that fluid shear stress serves as a trigger for microvilli formation via activation of the calcium ion channel TRPV6.
