Mechanically Activated Piezo Channels Mediate Touch and Suppress Acute Mechanical Pain Response in Mice
Summary: Touch and mechanical pain represent distinct, but interactive, modalities of mechanosensation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these mechanotransduction processes remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that deletion of the mechanically activated and rapidly adapting Piez...
