| Abstract |
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels comprise a family of cation channels implicated in a variety of cellular processes including light, mechanical or chemical stimuli, temperature, pH, or osmolarity. TRP channel proteins are a diverse family of proteins that are expressed in many tissues. We debated our recent knowledge about the expression, function, and regulation of TRP channels in the different parts of the male urogenital system in health and disease. Emerging evidence suggests that dysfunction of TRP channels significantly contributes to the pathophysiology of urogenital diseases. So far, there are many efforts underway to determine if these channels can be used as drug targets to reverse declines in male urogenital function. Furthermore, developing safe and efficacious TRP channel modulators is warranted for male urogenital disorders in a clinical setting. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 09 September 2018.
All research outputs
#21,164,509
of 23,818,521 outputs
Outputs from Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology
#1,798
of 1,973 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#294,817
of 337,527 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology
#20
of 24 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,818,521 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,973 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 5.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 337,527 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 24 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
