We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

| + | Piezo proteins constitute a family of excitatory [[ion channels]] directly gated by mechanical forces. Piezo is functionally conserved and very important because all living organisms are subjected to mechanical forces from their environment for instance proprioception, osmoregulation, vascular tone, blood flow regulation, muscle homeostasie, flow sensing in kidney, bladder and lungs. <ref> DOI 10.1016/j.neuron.2016.01.046 </ref>, | ||
