How do TRP channels regulate development?

TRP channels are a group of ion channels that are involved in diverse physiological processes, including development. During embryonic development, TRP channels regulate critical cellular and molecular events such as proliferation, differentiation, and migration. They also play a role in the development of organs such as the heart, lungs, nervous system, and sensory organs. TRP channels are activated by various stimuli, such as temperature, pH, mechanical stress, and growth factors, which regulate their function. Dysregulation of TRP channels can lead to developmental disorders, emphasizing their critical role in development. Understanding the mechanisms of TRP channel regulation during development can lead to potential therapeutic targets for developmental disorders.
