More recently, the overexpression of TRPV2 after myocardial infarction was observed in cardiac tissue of rats (Entin-Meer et al., 2014), and TRPV2 downregulation in knockout mice was related to a better recovery after myocardial infarction (Entin-Meer et al., 2017), probably because of an attenuated pro-inflammatory response in these mice. Here, TRPV2 is linked to myocardial infarction.
