TRPM4 and colorectal carcinoma: Taken together, TRPM4, identified as a novel methylated TSG, employs intracellular Ca2+ signals to activate calpain-mediated cleavage of FAK and impede CRC migration and invasion through modulating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling cascade, providing the first evidence that TRPM4 is likely to be a significant biomarker and potential target for CRC therapy.
