Significance Cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction in response to sustained hormonal and mechanical stress are sentinel features of most forms of heart disease. Activation of non–voltage-gated transient receptor potential canonical channels TRPC3 and TRPC6 may contribute to this pathophysiology and provide a therapeutic target. Effects from combined selective inhibition have not been tested previously. Here we report the capability of highly selective TRPC3/6 inhibitors to block pathological hypertrophic signaling in several cell types, including adult cardiac myocytes. We show in vivo redundancy of each channel; individual gene deletion was not protective against sustained pressure overload, whereas combined deletion ameliorated the response. These data strongly support a role for both channels in cardiac disease and the utility of selective combined inhibition.
