Beech, DJ (2019) Triskelion channels might bring Star Wars to the global problem of hypertension. Cell Calcium, 77. pp. 77-78. ISSN 0143-4160
Abstract
In a compelling new report Zeng et al. (Science 2018) suggest that neuronal Piezo1 and Piezo2 channels sense blood pressure in major arteries above the heart [1]. The data challenge previous proposed baroreceptor mechanisms and add to prior knowledge of Piezo1 channels as sensors of blood flow and key players generally in cardiovascular biology.
