Piezo1 in Smooth Muscle Cells Is Involved in Hypertension-Dependent Arterial Remodeling
The mechanically activated non-selective cation channel Piezo1 is a determinant of vascular architecture during early development. Piezo1-deficient embryos die at midgestation with disorganized blood vessels. However, the role of stretch-activated ion channels (SACs) in arterial smooth muscle cells...
