Disease relevance of TTYH2

  • In addition to a putative role in brain and testis, the over-expression of TTYH2 in renal cell carcinoma suggests that it may have an important role in kidney tumorigenesis [1].
 

High impact information on TTYH2

  • Similarly, hTTYH2 encoded an ionomycin-induced maxi-Cl(-) channel, but TTYH1 encoded a Ca(2+)-independent and swelling-activated maxi-Cl(-) channel [2].
