<i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> PIEZO Channel Coordinates Multiple Reproductive Tissues to Govern Ovulation

2019-11-20

Abstract excerpt

The PIEZO proteins are involved in a wide range of developmental and physiological processes. Human PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 are newly identified excitatory mechano-sensitive proteins; they are non-selective ion channels that exhibit a preference for calcium in response to mechanical stimuli. To further understand the function of these proteins, we investigated the roles of pezo-1 , the sole PIEZO ortholog in C. elega...
