The tactile sensors of the gut

open access: yesTrends in Neurosciences, 2022
In a recent study, Treichel, Finholm et al. showed that the mechanoreceptor Piezo2 enables enteroendocrine cells in the intestinal epithelium to sense luminal contents. Through neuroepithelial signaling, these cells modulate intestinal motility and transit of digestive products.
