Highlight Detail
Cav3.2 T-type calcium channel is required for the NFAT-dependent Sox9 expression in tracheal cartilage.
Dr. Chen, Chien-Chang
PNAS, Apr 28, 2014The tracheal cartilage rings are important for protecting and maintaining the airway. However, the chondrogenesis of tracheal cartilage is not completely understood. We demonstrate that the Cav3.2 T-type calcium channel is required for normal tracheal cartilage ring formation.
