Moreover, changes on TRP channel expression and function may be also the result of the presence of specific TRP gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), mRNA splice variants, different activation state and subcellular localization of TRP channels, etc. Thus, due to the complexity of the TRP channel family in tumors, to facilitate the reader, a table relative to the oncogenic and tumor suppressor effects of TRPV2 in different cancer types has been presented at the end of this review (Table 1). Here, TRPV2 is linked to cancer.
