The phylogeny of TRPC channels has not been resolved in detail, but they are present across animal taxa. There are actually only six TRPC channels expressed in humans because TRPC2 is found to be expressed solely in mice and is considered a [[Pseudogene|pseudo-gene]] in humans; this is partly due to the role of TRPC2 in detecting pheromones, which mice have an increased ability compared to humans. Mutations in TRPC channels have been associated with respiratory diseases along with [[focal segmental glomerulosclerosis]] in the kidneys.<ref name=":3">{{Cite book|title=TRP channels as therapeutic targets : from basic science to clinical use|others=Szallasi, Arpad, 1958-, McAlexander, M.
