Piezo1 Regulates Odontogenesis via a FAM83G-Mediated Mechanism in Dental Papilla Cells In Vitro and In Vivo

Biomolecules
This study explored the role of Piezo1 in the odontogenic differentiation of dental papilla cells (DPCs) and tissue, focusing on a mechanism involving family with sequence similarity 83, member G (FAM83G). Here, we found Piezo1, a mechanosensitive cation

Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...

Inactivation Of Piezo1 In Chondrocytes Impedes Mechanical-Induced Endochondral Osteogenesis

International Dental Journal
Aim or purpose: Piezo1, a mechanosensitive protein, has been implicated in the regulation of osteogenesis. Here we aimed to elucidate the role of Piezo1 in mechanical-induced endochondral osteogenesis at temporomandibular joint (TMJ) by investigating ...

Coordinated regulation of PIEZO2 by alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking and protein partners

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Regulatory mechanisms such as alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking, and protein interactions control channel gating, membrane abundance, and overall activity of PIEZO2. Proper regulation supports PIEZO2‐dependent proprioceptive, somatosensory, nociceptive, pruriceptive and interoceptive ...

Peripheral regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors is limited despite activation of regenerative transcriptional pathways

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors (Aβ‐LTMRs), sensory neurons responsible for discriminative touch, has not previously been explored. Here, we took advantage of the selective expression of Calb1 in Aβ‐LTMRs to generate two genetic mouse models for studying their regenerative response after nerve injury.

Intracellular mechanosensation in intestinal smooth muscle: Piezo1 complexes amplify signalling beyond the surface

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mechanosensation is not confined to the cell surface. In intestinal smooth muscle Piezo1 is predominantly intracellular (86%), where it forms a nanoscale (<40 nm) complex at the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)–plasma membrane junction. Within this sensor–amplifier–effector axis intra‐Piezo1 is the sensor that detects force at the SR,

Gastrointestinal Microbiome Dysbiosis in Cancer Development: Mechanisms and Biomarker Potential

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Dysbiosis of the gastrointestinal microbiome plays a role in carcinogenesis by inducing chronic inflammation, DNA damage, and activation of signaling pathways such as NF‐κB, STAT3, and Wnt/β‐catenin. Microorganisms such as Helicobacter pylori, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Bacteroides fragilis promote the development of gastrointestinal tumors through ...
