Component
TRPM6-associated channel current
Ion current measured after expression or regulation of TRPM6; native composition can include TRPM7.
1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What acts on it
EGF increased TRPM6-associated current in transfected HEK293 cells through EGFR-dependent signaling.
Experimental context and source evidence

- EGF exposure and receptor-blocking patch-clamp experiments
- exposure
- 10 nM EGF for 30 minutes in the main stimulation experiment; a concentration-response series and EGFR blockade were also tested.
- limitations
- Channel-current regulation was directly tested in expression cells, not native human DCT recordings.
- nutrient_topic
- Magnesium research collection; topical membership is not evidence of a direct dietary effect. · Magnesium
- organism
- Human proteins and human-derived cells
- plain_language
- The growth factor EGF signals through its receptor to increase magnesium-channel activity.
