Supplementary information

TRPV4 also known as transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 is an ion channel protein that plays a mechanical role in the human body. This protein with a mass of approximately 98 kDa is sensitive to osmotic pressure mechanical forces and temperature changes. It acts as a calcium-permeable non-selective cation channel. TRPV4 is widely expressed in various tissues including the choroid plexus as well as in the epithelial cells endothelium and certain neurons. The expression pattern suggests its involvement in various physiological processes.
Biological function summary

TRPV4 serves functions essential for osmoregulation mechanosensation and thermosensation. It often forms a complex with other proteins to modulate calcium influx which influences cellular responses. TRPV4 impacts various biological processes such as maintaining cell volume and adapting to temperature changes. Its role in regulating fluid movement across barriers like those in the choroid plexus demonstrates its involvement in maintaining homeostasis. These interactions highlight the protein's widespread influence on various cellular functions.

Pathways

TRPV4 integrates into critical signal transduction pathways that include the mechanotransduction and osmoregulation pathways. It is closely related to other TRP family members such as TRPV1 and TRPC1 within these pathways. The mechanotransduction pathway allows it to convey mechanical stimuli into electrochemical activity impacting various systems throughout the body. The osmoregulation pathway highlights its ability to sense and respond to osmotic shifts maintaining cellular and systemic equilibrium.

TRPV4 has significant links to a range of pathologies such as skeletal dysplasias and neuropathies. Mutations in TRPV4 can lead to altered channel function contributing to conditions like Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and congenital distal spinal muscular atrophy. These associations often involve the misregulation of calcium homeostasis where TRPV4's interaction with proteins like TRPV1 leads to a disruption of normal cellular processes highlighting the importance of maintaining TRPV4's proper function to prevent those diseases.

Non-selective calcium permeant cation channel involved in osmotic sensitivity and mechanosensitivity (PubMed : 16293632, PubMed : 18695040, PubMed : 18826956, PubMed : 22526352, PubMed : 23136043, PubMed : 29899501). Activation by exposure to hypotonicity within the physiological range exhibits an outward rectification (PubMed : 18695040, PubMed : 18826956, PubMed : 29899501). Also activated by heat, low pH, citrate and phorbol esters (PubMed : 16293632, PubMed : 18695040, PubMed : 18826956, PubMed : 20037586, PubMed : 21964574, PubMed : 25256292). Increase of intracellular Ca(2+) potentiates currents. Channel activity seems to be regulated by a calmodulin-dependent mechanism with a negative feedback mechanism (PubMed : 12724311, PubMed : 18826956). Promotes cell-cell junction formation in skin keratinocytes and plays an important role in the formation and/or maintenance of functional intercellular barriers (By similarity). Acts as a regulator of intracellular Ca(2+) in synoviocytes (PubMed : 19759329). Plays an obligatory role as a molecular component in the nonselective cation channel activation induced by 4-alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate and hypotonic stimulation in synoviocytes and also regulates production of IL-8 (PubMed : 19759329). Together with PKD2, forms mechano- and thermosensitive channels in cilium (PubMed : 18695040). Negatively regulates expression of PPARGC1A, UCP1, oxidative metabolism and respiration in adipocytes (By similarity). Regulates expression of chemokines and cytokines related to pro-inflammatory pathway in adipocytes (By similarity). Together with AQP5, controls regulatory volume decrease in salivary epithelial cells (By similarity). Required for normal development and maintenance of bone and cartilage (PubMed : 26249260). In its inactive state, may sequester DDX3X at the plasma membrane. When activated, the interaction between both proteins is affected and DDX3X relocalizes to the nucleus (PubMed : 29899501). In neurons of the central nervous system, could play a role in triggering voluntary water intake in response to increased sodium concentration in body fluid (By similarity).. Isoform 1. Non-selective calcium permeant cation channel involved in osmotic sensitivity and mechanosensitivity. Activation by exposure to hypotonicity within the physiological range exhibits an outward rectification. Also activated by phorbol esters. Has the same channel activity as isoform 1, and is activated by the same stimuli.. Isoform 5. Non-selective calcium permeant cation channel involved in osmotic sensitivity and mechanosensitivity. Activation by exposure to hypotonicity within the physiological range exhibits an outward rectification. Also activated by phorbol esters. Has the same channel activity as isoform 1, and is activated by the same stimuli.. Isoform 2. Lacks channel activity, due to impaired oligomerization and intracellular retention.. Isoform 4. Lacks channel activity, due to impaired oligomerization and intracellular retention.. Isoform 6. Lacks channel activity, due to impaired oligomerization and intracellular retention.. (Microbial infection) Facilitates hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication, possibly through its action on DDX3X.. (Microbial infection) Facilitates Dengue virus (DENV) replication, possibly through its action on DDX3X.. (Microbial infection) Facilitates Zika virus (ZIKV) replication, possibly through its action on DDX3X.
