Loss of stretch-activated channels, PIEZOs, accelerates non-small cell lung cancer progression and cell migration

Abstract excerpt

Abstract PIEZO channels are stretch-activated channels involved in wound sealing and cell proliferation in many cell types. A recent study focussing on lung cancer (LC), using next-generation sequencing analysis, has indicated that PIEZO functions were implicated in LC development. However, the expression and role of PIEZO channels in non-small cell LC (NSCLC) progression require elucidation. In the current...
