Dietary fatty acids fine-tune Piezo1 mechanical response
Piezo channels are mechanosensitive and rely on membrane composition to transduce physical stimuli into electrical signals. Here authors analyse the membrane components that modulate Piezo1 function using lipid profiling which shows that fatty acid metabolism can modulate ion channel activity.
