Interaction of cochlin and mechanosensitive channel TREK-1 in trabecular meshwork cells influences the regulation of intraocular pressure

Abstract In the eye, intraocular pressure (IOP) is tightly regulated and its persistent increase leads to ocular hypertension and glaucoma. We have previously shown that trabecular meshwork (TM) cells might detect aqueous humor fluid shear stress via interaction of the extracellular matrix (ECM) pro...
