Activator Comments
The precise activation pathway of TRPC1 containing channels remains controversial, as do the interaction partners. There is evidence that TRPC1 is involved in store-operated calcium entry, via interactions with STIM1 (reviewed in [2]), yet other researchers see no effect [4]. Recent work suggests TRPC1 may form a channel on endoplasmic and/or sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes [1,3].

When complexed with TRPC4 or TRPC5, TRPC1 is activated as a result of stimulation of Gq signalling pathways. The precise mechanism is unclear.

Low concentrations of La3+ or Gd3+ enhance TRPC1/4 or C1/5 currents. TRPC1 does not appear to be a mechanically sensitive channel [5].
