Pkd2l1 is required for mechanoception in cerebrospinal fluid-contacting neurons and maintenance of spine curvature

Alteration of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow and cilia defects are clinically associated with idiopathic scoliosis. This study shows that transient receptor potential channel Pkd2l1 is required for mechanosensory function of neurons detecting CSF flow and normal spine curvature development in zebraf...
