Scientific Background: Transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily C, member 5, also known as TRPC5, is a subtype of the TRPC family of mammalian transient receptor potential ion channels. Homo-multimeric TRPC5 and hetero-multimeric TRPC5-TRPC1 channels are activated by extracellular reduced thioredoxin (1). This activation probably plays a role in rheumatoid arthritis. It has also been recently found to be involved in the action on anaesthetics such as chloroform, halothane and propofol (2).
