Role of Calcium-Sensing Receptor in Mechanotransducer-Channel-Mediated Ca2+ Influx in Hair Cells of Zebrafish Larvae

Role of Calcium-Sensing Receptor in Mechanotransducer-Channel-Mediated Ca2+ Influx in Hair Cells of Zebrafish Larvae

The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) is an extracellular Ca2+ sensor that plays a critical role in maintaining Ca2+ homeostasis in several organs, including the parathyroid gland and kidneys. In this study, through in situ hybridization, the expression of CaSR mRNA was found in the neuromasts of zebr...
