Piezo1-specific Deletion in Macrophage Protects the Progression of Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Mice
1 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Piezo1, a recently identified mechanically activated nonselective cation channel protein, demonstrates sensitivity to various mechanical stimuli, such as matrix stiffness and shear stress. Although accumulating evidence implicates Piezo1 channels in numerous physiologic and pathophysiologic processes, its involvement in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced acute and chronic inflammatory bowel...
