Mechanoreceptor Piezo1 Is Downregulated in Multiple Sclerosis Brain and Is Involved in the Maturation and Migration of Oligodendrocytes in vitro
26 May 2022
Abstract excerpt
Mechanical properties of the brain such as intracranial pressure or stiffness of the matrix play an important role in the brain’s normal physiology and pathophysiology. The physical properties are sensed by the cells through mechanoreceptors and translated into ion currents which activate multiple biochemical cascades allowing the cells to adapt and respond to changes in their microenvironment. Piezo1 is one of...
