PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.MedVH introduces the first comprehensive benchmark for diagnosing hallucinations in medical vision‐language models. Across six multitask evaluations, eight state‐of‐the‐art LVLMs reveal that domain‐tuned models, while strong on routine questions, hallucinate more than general models, raising serious concerns for real‐world clinical use.
