The mechanosensitive Piezo1 channel mediates heart mechano-chemo transduction
The beating heart adapts cardiac output to changes in mechanical load via incompletely understood mechanotransduction mechanisms. Here the authors show that the mechanosensitive Piezo1 channel serves as a mechanotransducer for directly converting mechanical stretch of cardiomyocytes into Ca2+ and RO...
