TRPV is a family of transient receptor potential ion channels.
Additional recommended knowledge
TRPV subunits contain three to five N-terminal ankyrin repeats and can be activated through a variety of mechanisms. TRPV1 to TRPV4 can act as thermometers on a molecular level. TRPV1, specifically, is activated by noxious heat, acidic pH, capsaicin[1], and the endocannabinoids: anandamide and N-arachidonoyl-dopamine. TRPV4, alternatively, can be activated by cell swelling caused by 5',6'-ep-oxyeicosatrienoic acid.[2]
TRPV5 and TRPV6 are calcium entry channels responsible for calcium absorption in kidney and intestine. They were originally named ECaC [3] and CAT1 [4] and expression is regulated by the vitamin D endocrine system through the active metabolite calcitriol.
