Limited roles of Piezo mechanosensing channels in articular cartilage development and osteoarthritis progression
2022-10-08
Abstract excerpt
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent disease characterized by degeneration of the joint and pain. Mechanical stress plays a central role in OA development. It is hypothesized that cells in the OA joints produce OA-promoting molecules upon mechanical stress, and therefore, the mechanosensing systems are a theoretical target for OA treatment. Piezo mechanosensing channels mediate high-level mechanical stress in chondr...
