Background

Piezo1 is an 287kDa mechanosensitive nonselective cation channel, extensively distributed in multiple tissues and cell types.  Piezo1 plays an important role in numerus physiological processes, such as determining vascular structure, urine osmoregulation, and blood pressure homeostasis.  In the kidney, Piezo1 expression is found in the renal corpuscle, convoluted tubules, and collecting ducts.
