Osteoarthritis: articular chondrocyte inflammatory signaling leads to enhanced gene expression and function of mechanotransduction channel Piezo1 as a pathogenic feed-forward mechanism
2020-05-23
Abstract excerpt
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful and debilitating condition of synovial joints without any disease-modifying therapies (1, 2). We previously identified mechanosensitive PIEZO channels, PIEZO1 and PIEZO2, both expressed in articular cartilage, to function in chondrocyte mechanotransduction in response to injury (3, 4). We therefore asked whether interleukin-1-mediated inflammatory signaling, as occurs in OA, influe...
