The current stage of drug development based upon the function and dysfunction of TRP channels
Summary:
This paper discusses the role of Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels in various physiological processes and diseases, and the current stage of drug development targeting these channels in pain, cancer, and polycystic kidney disease.
