TRPV4 Contributes to Resting Membrane Potential in Retinal Müller Cells: Implications in Cell Volume Regulation [PDF]
, 2017 Neural activity alters osmotic gradients favoring cell swelling in retinal Müller cells. This swelling is followed by a regulatory volume decrease (RVD), partially mediated by an efflux of KCl and water. The transient receptor potential channel 4 (TRPV4),
