                                        Comment: Eact is a calcium-activated chloride channel TMEM16A (ANO1) activator [3]. It stimulates the TMEM16A Cl− current in in vitro cell systems. However, recent data have challenged this direct activation of TMEM16A, and indicate that Eact induces an increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels through an agonist effect on TRPV1 and TRPV4 [1-2].
